Finally, be cautious when you park your car at the club room. A member of the Theatre had a purse stolen from her unlocked car last Wednesday. CCTV footage clearly shows a person trying a number of car doors that night. Not sure whether it was an opportunist thief or whether the person operates regularly in the area.
