DIT Audits of Companies in Ekkersrijt, Son, and Breugel

During an inspection by the Dommelstroom Intervention Team (DIT) at two locations in the Ekkersrijt industrial park, fire safety violations were identified yesterday. For example, the fire extinguishers in one of the buildings were not easily accessible. At both locations, the available fire extinguishers had not been inspected (on time). Based on these findings, the municipality will conduct a further investigation of one of the buildings. 

The owners of the businesses visited cooperated fully. The following agencies were involved in the inspection: the municipality of Son en Breugel, the East Brabant Police, and the Southeast Brabant Environmental Agency (ODZOB).

(Anonymous) reporting of suspicious situations and nuisances

Residents can help create a safe living environment. They can report suspicious situations and/or disturbances to the DIT. They can do so by calling the municipality of Son en Breugel at 0499-491 491 or the police at 0900-8844. 

Residents who prefer to report anonymously have several options available to them:

• They can leave a letter for the community police officer in a special mailbox at City Hall. The mailbox is located just around the corner to the right of the entrance.
• They can report anonymously viawww.sonenbreugel.nl/verdachte-situaties-herkennen-en-melden.
• They can report anonymously through Report Crime Anonymously: 0800-7000 or via www.meldmisdaadanoniem.nl.

It’s always a good idea to report suspicious activity. Even a gut feeling or a sense that something isn’t quite right is sufficient reason to file a report. Your report could be the missing piece of the puzzle in an ongoing investigation or could prompt a new investigation.
