Burglars sent aclear message

POLICE are using an eye-catching electronic sign to get their message across to burglars in the Peasmarsh area.

It is believed to be the first time one of these signs, ordinarily used for road maintenance information, has been used to deliver this kind of message in East Sussex.

Inspector James Scott said: “Burglaries in Rother district have seen a fall of 7.4 per cent when compared with the previous year but that doesn’t mean we’re taking the pressure off.
