“When the police were based in Harrow, at least people could see them, now they are like ghosts, never seen, and do they really exist?”
Joanne Sweeney added, “Sad times! Elmgrove born and bred, and to be honest, this sort of crime is pretty much unheard of there! Very nice place to live, and I always feel safe there. Wishing whomever the victim is a speedy recovery.”
