COLTON/span>

At 11.10 am today (Saturday 19th), 2 unknown men visited a property at Fishers Pitt, Bromley Wood, offering to sell a 'brand new' three piece suite, which they just happened to have ... They were driving a white Transit van reg: no Y179 EOT, and the one who came to the door was MALE AVERAGE HEIGHT, BLUE EYES, DARK HAIR - GOOD LOOKING. This could possibly be the same white transit van reported on Friday 18th in and around Colton, ostensibly looking for scrap metal and batteries (but possibly doing a Friday reconnaissance for a weekend return). Although the registration number on the Colton sighting was different (P 350 AEL), it's not unusual for "travellers" to swap vehicles and/or number plates to enable them to claim they were in a different place at the time of a crime.
