Dear Residents and Local Businesses,  

Here is your weekly update from your local neighbourhood Policing Team, to let you know some of what we've been busy dealing with: 

PATROLS 

Officers have been carrying out patrols of the Henley and Longford areas on foot and in vehicles. We have been paying particular attention to locations that have recently experienced an increase in crime and anti-social behaviour. 

ARRESTS

Our officers have arrested two people this week. 

One person was arrested for having a dog dangerously out of control in a public place. Another person was arrested for stealing from a shop. 

HOUSING

We are continuing to work closely with housing associations such as Citizen and Orbit to keep them informed of any of their tenants who are repeatedly involved in crime and anti-social behaviour, because it is a breach of their tenancy agreement. We are also carrying out joint visits with the housing officers to some addresses.  On some occasions this has resulted in troublesome families being evicted from their home.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT

We have arranged a CUPPA WITH A COPPA event. The details are:

 BELL GREEN LIBRARY, Riley Square, Coventry, CV2 1LS.

 On Monday 31st March, 17:00-18:00 hours.

Please come and join us if you can.

There will be a PCSO present who can assist with communication in British Sign Language. 

If you have information about people committing crime that you want to tell us about, you can contact us on the non-emergency telephone number 101 or by visiting us online at Home | West Midlands Police where you will find access to the LIVE CHAT facility. Alternatively you can contact the CRIMESTOPPERS charity anonymously by calling 0800 555 111. This is a free phone number. CRIMESTOPPERS can also be contacted online here: Independent UK charity taking crime information anonymously | Crimestoppers (crimestoppers-uk.org)  

Please do not report crime via WMnow because it is not always monitored.  

Kind Regards,  

The Henley & Longford Neighbourhood Policing Team
