House Alarms.

[missprim]

Do the police come out if you report someones house alarm going off during the day?

[tonyav]

Probably would if you said there was a burglary happening.

[missprim]

Problem is, you can't get into his garden unless you are a burglar and you can't see into his house from the street.

[woofgang]

for "just" an alarm going off, no, not round here anyway. you would need to be reporting a burglary in process.

[tonyav]

Do you think that he is being burgled ?.

[gness]

Not in my experience. We had one that kept going off until another neighbour shot it.

Well I phoned the police and they said if they have anyone in the area they would call round but it seemed to stop on it's own eventually.
