Local Priorities Violence against shop workers Message

I wanted to provide an update regarding Violence against shop workers, which members around this area have highlighted as an issue of concern on the Met Engage priority survey.

Today whilst on cycle patrol along North End Road I came across a person that has been involved in Shop Lifting in Fulham and has behaved violently when approached by shop keepers and staff, but I detained him and he was calm with me, Police Officers on Fulham Safer Neighbourhood Team quickly came to my aid and arrested this person.

Another dangerous offender has been taken off Fulham streets today. Keeping residents and shop keepers safe is paramount to me doing my job.

If you enjoyed this post please leave an appreciation, it means a lot to me.
