Parcel theft template Westland Road, Watford 01/12/2025 at 12.15 hrs

Dear Resident,

On 01/12/2025 at approx. 12.15 hrs a parcel from Pink Boutique was stolen from a residential doorstep in Westland Road, Watford. If you have any information or CCTV regarding this crime 41/119850/25 please contact the police via the non emergency number 101 quoting the crime number.

Alternatively, you can give information anonymously via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111

Here are some things you could do to reduce the risk of doorstep theft:

Track your parcel to ensure you or someone else is at home for the delivery.

Install a video doorbell; this can be connected to your mobile so you are notified immediately of any delivery, and is easier to install than a full CCTV system.

Install a security light.

Arrange for your parcel to be delivered to a trusted neighbour, or other family members who will be at home; if you live in a flat, is there a concierge who could accept the parcel for you?

Use an off-site locker service for frequent deliveries, or for expensive items; these parcel boxes are more likely to be in busy, safer locations - such as supermarkets - rather than secluded areas which could be targeted by thieves.
