Sun_2010:


To the police officers credit, she refused to go till the girl came out. The girl came out, no noticeable injuries , just said she is ok and went in.

The police woman told me there is nothing she can do as the girl appears ok. The girl is a local but the guy is not.
Ok. if they saw the girl and heard from her that she did not require further assistance from the police, then that's fine.

Oh dear...must have been a big scare for you, Sun! Glad those visitors had left.


Thought the girl saw a ghost or roach or what.

Did you install CCTVs at your premises? Good to have those in case of break-ins...Can help keep an eye on neighbour's properties as well...
Yes, JS got quite worried that night.
Thinking about the CCTV for peace of mind.

The owners were nice nice people. Just think they probably rented out to this guy while waiting to sell. And probably did not want to attract any undue attention.

Stevenage:



Most of the time, NPCOs are bounded by what they can and cannot do via the PGO..

If the victim chooses not to voice out, there is very little that the men in blue can do seriously.

When in doubt, always call the police. Do have the number of the nearest NPC on your speeddial just in case.
What is PGO ?

Ours has been a very peaceful neighbourhood. Except for that 10s which if a few others hadnt heard, I would have thought I imagined it.

Sun_2010:

The police came in to take in my details and ask questions.


The person claims to be a friend of my neighbour. He refused to allow the police in to check. He said he had an argument with his gf, just domestic violence, no need for the police to enter as they did not have warrant. Instead charged the police was rude. they were not I can vouch for that.
The police spoke to the owner who confirmed it. They took the details of both the guy and girl . The girl apparently looked ok , the police said bt did not talk.

This is appalling. How can the police just back off like that? For domestic violence, the police have all the right to enter the unit to check on the victim. It is for the victim to say she is ok and no need police intervention, not the guy who beat up the gf to say everything is ok. If the injury is deemed bad enough, the police have the power to arrest the assailant on the spot.

Very sad to say, our police officers are getting very soft....

pirated:
some weeks ago there were some loud shouting in the neighboring block at night 10+pm


first instinct - quarrels, don't be busy body

but it persisted. could see other units have people peering from their windows too

used mobile to dial 999 - alamak, got directed to M1 service hotline and not in working order !!!

used housephone to call ..... a police car came....quiet. some people left, police car left

then they shouted again. called 999 again...one police car came, then 2, then 3 .... then all together 5 police cars and rounded about 20 people....one fellow tried to flee on motor bike, another drove recklessly away...but escorted back by another police car....

understood various people called 999.

when in doubt, call. just in case someone's life is in danger. police won't take this as prank calls, no worry
You are right. I am wiser now.

The feeling first was of course dont be a busy body. Other than the 10 s scream there was no suspicious sound. No scuffles , no arguments, nothing. Actually after the scream , it was very quite. Of course , other than the common area near front, the houses are separate , no common wall with any units.
On hind sight, it was the way the scream ended that was unnerving. Very abruptly. Sort of hand over mouth. It is not alowing me to sleep now. Thank God tmr is a Sat.

glad to know you are fine.


sometimes, when we're in shock, we will hesitate for awhile before react.
don't blame yourself.

now your safety is the most impt thing you must look into. Asking the police for help is definitely one good idea as they'll do more rounds in the area.
Thanks dear, your words made me act.

I realise it was about 9 they came, but all the tense waiting seemed to make it seem much longer. 😓

Mawar:
Can try calling the police and tell them your fears. They will likely patrol your area a bit more and keep the guy within their radar.

I will go down to the NPP and ask tomorrow.

No, only had their home phone number taken long ago , which they seem to have disconnected.


In that case, do be careful of that chap for the next couple of weeks. He doesn't sound like a savory character. Don't go out alone.

Thanks. I will be extra cautious and double check stuff. 🙏
DH will be super worried :sad:

I can understand that. Are you still in contact with your ex neighbour? Maybe you should call him up and tell him what happened, and that you called the police in case someone was injured.
