Subject: Robbery: Arneil Brothers, Northfield road, Denny [NOT PROTECTIVELY MARKED]
NOT PROTECTIVELY MARKED
You may already be aware, but if not, just to make sure you were sighted on a reported robbery at the above store last night.
On this occasion, there is no suggestion of any
weapons being involved. From the circumstances, there is no obvious
link to the robbery last year, however as always with this type of
crime, CID will lead the investigation and all potential
lines of enquiry will be fully covered.
I will ensure there are high visibility patrols
to provide reassurance within the community, with additional resources
being brought in from outwith the division to support. Door-to-door and
road checks will be carried out to assist with
the investigation. As always, I know you are all very active in
your communities, and if you hear any information about anyone who may
have witnessed the incident or be responsible, then please let us know.
PI Kellet is off with a virus this week so local
deployment of staff is being overseen by PS Ewan Graham, your Community
Sergeant. He will also be in contact with the shopowner, and our
interventions department will be attending the premises
to ensure security advice is given.
I appreciate you will be concerned, but just to
reassure, this is the priority incident for the area command today and
will be staffed accordingly from across the division. At the
moment, reported robberies for the Denny area are at
the same level as this time last year. As always, I can be contacted
on 01324 678804 if you wish to discuss anything further.
Thanks
Mandy Paterson
Falkirk Area Commander
Forth Valley Divison
