To the absolute idiots doing burnouts in our culdesac — pull your heads in.
This street is FULL of kids riding bikes, scooters, playing basketball and playing outside constantly. It’s not a racetrack, and the way some of you fly around here is disgusting.
What makes it even worse? There was a CHILD in the car while you were doing it. Imagine risking your own kid’s safety just to show off for a few seconds.
Have some respect for the families who live here before someone’s child gets seriously hurt because of reckless stupidity.

About 1:30 this afternoon my friend was just reversed into at Forrest lakes shops (woolworths side) by some women that never stopped or checked that to see if she was okay. My friend is in shock doesn't appear to be hurt at the point. Did anybody witness this? My friend didnt get number plate

Lance Ct, Thornlie - Someone came into my house over the fence and smashed my husband car window glass and after 1 week my car window smashed and now today my daughter bicycle is missing🧐

Some people have sent in photos of cars with their number plate caught hooning around Thornlie. They've been referred to police - if you have images or video to share, upload them here - https://www.wa.gov.au/service/security/law-enforcement/report-hoondangerous-driving where no hoon can comment against it, they'll just get a knock on the door

Report hoon/dangerous driving A hoon driver is anyone who drives at very high speed or in a manner that is considered highly dangerous or antisocial.

Cannington Detectives have identified a rise in burglaries across several suburbs, with offenders targeting garages and sheds to steal off‑road and road registered motorcycles.

Investigations have identified links between some offences and online sales through social media and classified advertising platforms. In several cases, offenders obtained information about a motorcycle after viewing photos taken at a seller’s home or by using fake profiles to arrange inspections before later committing burglaries.

WA Police remind the community to remain cautious when selling high‑value items online. Avoid sharing images or information that may reveal your address or where property is stored, and review security arrangements to ensure motorcycles are secured and kept out of sight where possible.

Anyone who witnesses suspicious behaviour is urged to contact police on 131 444.

Information about crime in your community can be reported anonymously to Crime Stoppers online at www.crimestopperswa.com.au or by calling 1800 333 000.

As a reminder, bicycles, e‑scooters, e‑bikes and off‑road motorcycles can be registered free of charge at www.bikelinc.com.au, helping police reunite owners with stolen property.

Reports made to Crime Stoppers can be made anonymously.
