Steve Hunt urged Islanders to work with the police to bring the culprits to book by ringing the group’s confidential hotline.

His comments came in the run-up to the launch of a new Crimestoppers website, which will give people the chance to read about and offer information about all the crimes committed in the Island.

The website, which will be updated weekly, should be up and running within the next two weeks.

Mr Hunt said: ‘I am really very concerned that we are constantly hearing and reading about mindless acts of vandalism to property and break-ins that will go unsolved unless everyone looks out for one another.’ He added that it was not possible for the police to be everywhere and gave his backing to the setting up of Neighbourhood Watch-type schemes.
