Dear Neighbourhood Link Member, Good afternoon I hope you are well and had a lovely weekend. As you may have noticed, Loughborough Street Fair is in town getting prepared for our annual 4-day event. If you are attending, have fun and keep yourself and belongings safe and please find attached some useful and important information that you may wish to take note of, especially if you have never visited Loughborough Fair before. Here is this week’s update on neighbourhood policing in Loughborough Central from 5th November to 12th November 2024 Crime Report | Burglary other than dwelling | 2 | | Residential Burglary | 0 | | Robbery | 1 | | Theft From Motor Vehicle | 0 | | Theft of Pedal Cycle/Motor Vehicle | 1 | | Anti-Social Behaviour | 9 |
What have the neighbourhood team been doing? We received a spike in Antisocial Behaviour incidents especially targeting the fast-food restaurants. With speedy identification of the suspects by officers and intelligence, a known local youth has been given an Acceptable Behavioral Contract that prohibits him from entering certain establishments and further investigations still ongoing for related incidents linked to the ASB.Another Anti-social behaviour incident has been reported that again involve youths in a local car park who are causing alarm and distress and committing Public Order offences. After receiving CCTV footage, the beat team are in the process of identifying the suspects by visiting local schools and colleges and gathering local intelligence, so we can deal with the youths early to try and prevent any further offences being committed or the situation escalating. Today officers attended court and were granted a Partial Closure Order on a local address that has been linked to drug related activity.If you have school/college aged children that frequent in Loughborough Town after school or college, please remind them how to behave with respect and courtesy when out and about with their friends, in shops/businesses and public spaces. ASB will NOT be tolerated, it is taken very seriously and will be dealt with by the Incremental Approach.
