<p>Hi all,</p>
<p>So you are aware, there was an incident at UCC on Wednesday
morning around 7am. Two people entered UCC, one by climbing into
the room from the loft and the other after the door was opened
from the inside, had a look around and presumably attempted to
steal the safe and its contents. It also appears they took a shirt
from the shirt rack (although that was inside at the time).
Fortunately nothing of significant value was taken although there
is some damage to the safe mount which will need to be repaired.<br>
</p>
<p>The incident has been reported to UWA Security and later to
police, who categorised it as "attempted stealing". Feel free to
review a <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://gozzarda.ucc.asn.au/timelapse/timelapse.mp4">timelapse
of the webcam images</a> (you may need to download first if it
doesn't play from your browser).</p>
<p><b>Please contact committee if you are aware of any further
information relating to this incident.</b><br>
</p>
<p>UWA Security recommended installation of a CCTV camera which they
can use to monitor the clubroom, given that it is not a closed
space and contains valuable equipment. We would need to push for
this with the Guild ourselves though.<br>
</p>
<p>One thing to note however is that the building was left open at
the time of the incident.</p>
<p>Hence, this is a reminder to all door members to please carefully
follow the proper room closing procedure. Especially important is
to ensure that <b>any loose valuables are placed in either the
tool cupboard or machine room</b>, the tool cupboard and machine
room are locked, and to <b>close and lock both the upper and
lower doors of the stairwell and the fire escape if you are the
last person or group</b> of people in the building. (if there
are other people around, please remind them to lock up the
building themselves when they leave). Please also remember to
bring the shirt rack inside.<br>
</p>
<p>Best regards,</p>
<p>Felix von Perger<br>
UCC President<br>
