🚨 Community Alert - Help Us Keep Our Area Safe 🚨

We are asking residents to remain vigilant and report any suspicious or illegal vehicles seen in and around the local area.

We are aware of ongoing concerns within the community regarding vehicle-related anti-social behaviour and suspected criminal activity.

Please be assured that local officers are aware of these issues and are actively working with partner agencies to identify those responsible and resolve the problems affecting our neighbourhood.

What could be considered a suspicious vehicle?

Examples include:

Vehicles regularly parked in unusual locations for long periods without a clear reason.

Vehicles visiting secluded areas at unusual hours.

Cars, vans or motorcycles being driven erratically or dangerously.

Vehicles with false, missing, obscured or altered registration plates.

Vehicles repeatedly entering and leaving an area in a manner that appears unusual.

Occupants acting suspiciously, such as watching properties, attempting door handles, or concealing their identity.

Vehicles suspected of being used for drug activity, theft, fly-tipping or other criminal offences.

Abandoned vehicles or vehicles appearing to be in a dangerous condition.

What information should you report?

If safe to do so, please try to provide:

✅ Vehicle registration number
✅ Make, model and colour
✅ Location and direction of travel
✅ Date and time seen
✅ Description of occupants
✅ Details of any suspicious behaviour

Even seemingly minor information can help build a wider intelligence picture.

How to report

Report suspicious activity via 101 or online through your local police reporting portal.

If a crime is in progress or there is an immediate threat to life or property, call 999.

Your information is invaluable and helps us target patrols, identify offenders and keep our communities safe. Thank you for your continued support and assistance.
