BRAVE BURGLARS
RESIDENTS in a millionaire's row village say gangs armed with catapults, slingshots and ball-bearing guns are terrorising the area and have even shot at a funeral.The village, which has a population of just 3,000, sees many living in detached houses in their own grounds worth seven figures.
Their chaotic spree has seen swans and other wildlife killed, windows frequently shattered and cars damaged.One angry villager said "The police just aren't interested - they are seemingly resigned that they can't do anything.""They admitted them getting someone here would be a two hour wait. In December 2012, an elderly woman fell down the stairs when she tried to see what had smashed of one of her downstairs windows.
"It didn't happen in the dead of night - it was just after 8am and when my four-year-old daughter was there."
