I have personal experience of similar incident and damage to my car - and must say the police were excellent - but I took part in the process, ringing and raising an incident and helping as I could. Mark - the reason my friend did not report the incidentwas because of depression made worse by the thought of having to fork out 70which the could barely afford. This is a person with good education and hardworking till this illness struck him. He has Clinical depression and that is a chemical imbalance in the brain causedby a reduced number of neurotransmitters (happy chemicals) making it to theother side or by the brain not producing enough. So it could affect any of usat any time. This is the type of people in our society that we should beprotecting, not trying to make life even harder.

I do not base disillusionment with the police on this one incident. ] To be fair, a bit of minor damage done a week previous is not going to be top of their priority list. And the person answering the phone isn't going to be able to physically go and check a week's worth of CCTV while you are on the phone. Get an incident
