Recent spate of break-ins in Sluice carpark
At least two break-ins have occurred in Sluice car park in broad daylight in as many weeks while paddlers were away from their vehicles paddling at the Sluice. The perpetrators manage to smash the back windows of cars without setting off the cars' alarm by shattering the pane at the base and then gently pushing the shattered glass in and reaching for valuables. Cars parked near the road seem to be less at risk due to their exposed nature unlike the area on the right hand side just after you come up the hill towards the end of the carpark.
Make sure you keep all valuables out of sight when leaving your car to paddle.
