SEVERAL residents have fallen victim to metal thieves targeting homes in High Woods.
Lead flashing has been stolen from several properties across the area with some residents complaining a crime epidemic in their part of the estates means they have decided to move away.
Others are now just waiting to be the next victim and believe there is little hope of stopping the thieves.
Residents in Gazelle Court, Chinook, Derwent Road and Sioux Close all woke yesterday to find lead flashing had been stolen from on top of their windows, some while they were just the other side of the wall.
