I WOULD like to add my comments to those already raised about acts of vandalism and theft in the Rubery area.

The manufacturer's badge has just been stolen off of my Nissan Micra while it was parked on my driveway, and the paintwork was damaged by the implement used to remove the badge. The words I would use to describe the individual concerned could not be printed.

I do, however, wonder what their parents think when they arrive home with a collection of car badges. Come on, its not difficult... they are too young to drive and generally unless you own a car you do not possess the badges, neither do their mates.

If your child does arrive home with any badges, or other property that does not belong to them please could you hand it into Rubery police station, so that the police can return it to the rightful owners.
