The male is white and approx 40yrs old - described as bald - has been noted to wear a black anorak. He knocks on elderly residents homes pretending to be from the waterboard. They let him in and then he removes the toilet cistern and asks them to hold the ballcock in position while he goes to get a tool - turn the water off - that sort of thing. He then searches the house, removes mainly cash and jewellery and exits. He is not know to be violent or aggressive but is believed to be responsible for almost 30 incidents in another Police division. He targeted a house in Brooklands on 28/04/08 and with this in mind we want to make as many residents aware as possible in the South Manchester area.
But there is no reason why he can not move to new areas as people become more aware of his activities in South Manchester, so be careful out there !!!
If he turns up at their address they are not to let him in and should inform Police by ringing 0161 872 5050 asap - any info with regard to a better description, a vehicle being used, name etc would be a great help. Please direct any response to Insp Kevin Marriott (kevin.marriott@gmp.police.uk) or ring 0161 856 4982 / 4546
