You’ve been warned!

Police have warned householders to be on their guard against three career criminals who are about to be released from prison. Officers in Suffolk are convinced the three will begin committing burglaries again after they are released in a few weeks. Their concerns prompted them to warn householders in the men's home area. But they are refusing to give out details - including the men's photographs, names and ages. The decision has alarmed residents.
