Community update: OPERATION STORMECHO

I wanted to provide you with an update regarding Antisocial Behaviour, which people around your area have highlighted as an issue of concern on the priority survey.

Another e-scooter has been seized by your local Neighbourhood Policing Team after being ridden illegally. Officers were able to utilise their Section 59 Powers the other day for a nuisance E-Scooter.

Did you know? Privately owned e-scooters cannot be used on roads, pavements, cycle lanes, or other public places and can be seized by police.

We're listening to your concerns and taking action to keep our communities safe.

Have e-scooters been causing issues where you live? Let us know through Northamptonshire Talking.

Tackling antisocial behaviour can be a complex issue, and one which requires input and action from more than just the police.

The Anti-social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014 aims to put victims first, giving power to local people and enabling professionals to find the best solutions for their local area.

The act provides the police, local authorities and other local agencies with flexible tools and powers that they can use to respond quickly and effectively to antisocial behaviour. The act also includes measures such as the Community Remedy and antisocial behaviour case reviews which empower victims and communities to have a say in the outcome of their reports and hold agencies to account.

If you ever experience this issue or have information regarding an incident, please report it using our online reporting tools at www.northants.police.uk, speak to an operator in our Force Communications Room via our online web chat or call the non-emergency number 101. 

Alternatively, you can stay 100 per cent anonymous by contacting the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 or via their untraceable online form at crimestoppers-uk.org.
