Warning: Impersonating Police Officers in Belvedere

The Belvedere Safer Neighbourhoods Policing Team has been made aware of a male and female who have been impersonating police officers in the area. They have been calling at properties late in the evening, which could put residents at risk of harm or theft.

If you are suspicious of a police officer calling at your property, you should in the first instance ask for and examine their identification. If you are still unsure, do not hesitate to call the non-emergency police number - 101 and ask the operator if any police officers are attending your address.

The police are taking this matter seriously and actively investigating the issue. If you see anyone suspicious, report it to the non-emergency police number. Stay safe and be vigilant.
