Home nightmare

The theft is bad, but the actual attack on the premises is totally vindictive. I feel for the owners and hope their luck improves.

Not good, Lara Yes, it does happen everywhere, and maybe it’s front page news as nothing much happens in Geelong.

Peter of Brighton Unfortunately, I think there are not enough police to monitor such a big area. We have a police station that is only manned part time and not enough police on the beat. C’mon state govt, let’s not wait for 10 years before you see the writing on the wall. I feel for this young couple: they are trying to build the house of their dreams.

Kylie, Lara Maybe people need to keep dogs in their newly built homes. What a surprise if they had a Rotty to welcome them in.

Rhon, Lara Mongrels. I hope the police find them and hit them with the full force of the law.

Newman There are some real toe-rags out there and I bet the local cops know who most of them are. Hopefully, if caught, the courts make an example of them and take their car or things of value to pay for damage done and give them 12 months in slammer.

Graham, Darwin Resources make it impossible to have ‘‘frequent’’ patrols of estates and anywhere else in the Geelong region. It is a terrible story, but incidents like this will continue while criminals and those bent on easy pickings know that the chances of being caught by police are negligible at the moment.
