Some residents of East Cowes have awoken this morning (Saturday) to find their cars unlocked and the doors wide open. Many residents in the Osborne Road area of the North Wight town have been ‘targeted’ overnight. It is believed the culprit is a male, with sightings made on private security cameras of a suspicious character looking into vehicles along the road with a torch between 01:00 – 02:00 before returning to the area once more a short while later. At this moment it is unclear if any goods have been stolen. Island Echo understands that Hampshire & Isle of Wight Constabulary is aware.

Perhaps Donna Jones will send him on a rehab-holiday IF caught by ‘other people’s CCTV’ images and information, so as her Police don’t have to do too much leg work, despite us paying ever more on our Council tax for an ever worsening service.
A WOKE Woman in charge, what could possibly go wrong?
Still, I expect after hours ‘trying’ to get hold of the Police, eventually they will issue a ‘Crime number and a link to ‘Victim support’, but not before checking YOUR insurance on your car for an ‘easy’ cop to put in the ‘tick box’.
See it how it is now.
Sadly our Donna has never trod the beat, even putting butter on the doorframe wouldn’t get our donna in a real station as shes not a real copper, go woke go broke.
Would it be arse over head?
Why do you call her ‘woke’? She’s a Tory!
Because Island Echo readers don’t understand what the word means
Both of those idiot parties are as bad as each other….
Lots of wokes about fanny but they do not understand the word they think it means work well that has f..ked them up completely their parents have never worked apart from claiming benefits and breeding
I think whoever it is should be taught a lesson he’ll never forgot. If I catch anyone breaking into my car, he’ll come off very badly and won’t be able to write his name for a very long time. The law. Is useless, and the only deterrent is pain. Pure and simple.
Whilst fully accepting what you say, you will have to be very careful not to get found out if doing such. Not so much because the Police will ‘do’ you, as weak laws apply to all, BUT the fact that the trash who ‘do’ this sort of thing will smash all your windows, trash your car, etc, but as they themselves own nothing they have nothing to loose, likely pay no rent or own no vehicle, so then it only leaves themselves to take reprisals out on, but it has to be not at all or total, as if they are left intact they or their mates will ruin your life forever more.
The older man was looking for his stuff as he lost his memory this happens
What!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pillock I use a capital S ……
Get a life !!!!!
Is that a spool of possibly copper wire that I see? As if any smackhead would leave that (It might be a garden hose, I cant tell)
Just another night in East Cowes.
Another crime on the Isle of Shite,

What has some of these comments got to do with Donna Jones and people’s cars getting vandalised by them accidentally leaving them unlocked!
