I have just received this from the Leicester & Leicestershire South Neighbourhood Watch Association. It is being circulated to residents in Oadby:

"Police at Wigston request that anyone who has had a garden ornament go missing during the last week and not reported it stolen to contact them. Also anyone who has had a purse and contents go missing. The latter particularly applies to elderly residents. A man has been arrested in possession of these articles but their provenance has yet to be established.

Please telephone Inspector Martin Halse, at Wigston Police Station on 0116 2222222.
