Dear Resident, Welcome to the April edition of your neighbourhood policing newsletter. April has been a quieter month for us in terms of proactive activity with the Easter break and many officers taking time off to spend with their families. However, we’ve got out as much as we can, addressing your concerns. Cycle theft continues to be an issue in the city and we’ve held further bike marking events. For those that haven’t had chance to get their bikes marked yet, you can attend one of our many events lined up this year. Although we’ve not had the Spring weather we hoped for, we’ve been getting out on foot and in particular on bikes ourselves, patrolling across the city both in plain clothes and high visibility. Being on bikes allows us to cover a lot of ground in a shift and access all the green spaces where there are often concerns around anti-social behaviour. Our Rural Crime Action Team have shared news on the good work they’ve been doing over the past year including recovering just under one million pounds worth of suspected stolen property. Read more about the work of the team on our website. Kind Regards, Inspector Ed McNeill Cambridge Neighbourhood Policing Team
