OTLEY continues to be a “low-crime area” – but more residents need to improve their security.
That was the message given to the town’s Neighbourhood Watch co-ordinators during their meeting at Otley Police Station. PC Dom Phillips told the group that continued public awareness would ensure that the town kept crime rates down.
He stressed the need for garden sheds and garages to be properly secured, and for houses and cars to be locked.
