On Monday night walking home around 10pm I tried to walk from St Ann's Rd up Woodlands Park Rd but the whole junction with Avondale was fenced off as a crime scene across and the police man there said there had been an assault.
Two weeks ago on Thursday night there was a huge noise along the back gardens of the houses on the south side of Cranleigh Rd, and various neighbours looked out to find seven men in their twenties carrying a large bag, climbing over the fences and gardens, from East to West towards the Woodlands Park Rd end of our road. When people shouted they were calling the police, a voice shouted over that the police were already there and chasing them. However, it seems they weren't caught and escaped. Three of them tried to break into the upstairs window of a house on Conway Rd before escaping over the garage. Two of them burst back into my garden through the wooden fence, leaving a cartoon style hole in the fence. Two others broke the fence at the end climbing over there. Anyone know any more about this? It's made some of my neighbours very anxious, partly because there were so many of them. Some neighbours didn't hear it because they'd closed their windows due to a really noisy party in Priscilla Place off Conway Rd.

I live in Conway Road and we were getting a bit worried about the number of youths hanging around outside our house. They weren't threatening as such, but were rather loud and sitting on our car. There have always been a few teenagers hanging around, but only up to about 10 and I recognised most of them as local. They were a bit loud but usually disappeared by 11ish. But over the last month or so the group got bigger and bigger each night, resulting in a week last Wednesday (13th) there was a really massive group, I'd say upwards of 50 people. I couldn't understand why such a big group of people were just hanging around, laughing and talking in our street. At about midnight a police car turned up, the noise volume went up again - but not shouting, it all sounded pretty jovial - after about half an hour the crowd dispersed and I've not heard or seen anyone outside since. So the police obviously said something to make them go away and not come back (hopefully).
I didn't hear the men running through gardens in Cranleigh - maybe because the little housing association houses separate us from the south side gardens in Cranleigh. Sounds awful though, and the incident in Avondale.
