Hello Resident,

It has been a busy week in Burbage this week. We would really appreciate any support that you can give regarding CCTV for the below. We appear to have several people in the village causing criminal damage to vehicles and anti-social behaviour which is impacting on residents.

This mindless, disgusting behaviour is causing financial hardship and, an emotional impact, particularly on elderly residents. It appears those involved were walking around the village so please take a look at any CCTV you may have and that you feel may be of evidential value. Please forward it on to me. darren.stretton@leics.police.uk
