Good News:

The team were able to finally shut down a problem property on the patch this week. After months of working with the council a flat which was being frequented by drug users, drug dealers, anti-social youths and more has been boarded up and had the locks changed awaiting refurbishment and a new, hopefully law-abiding tenant moving in. The former occupant caused numerous issues for local residents and ourselves and multiple calls to service.

The team have been out and about on dedicated tasking around the anti-social behaviour and the use of fireworks in public spaces during the Halloween period. We have been responding to the calls as they have landed and been proactive in tackling the issues based upon the information kindly provided by the community.

The team have been staying on after late shifts again to keep on top of the area’s vehicle crime, a number of suspect vehicles were pulled over and, checked and search. With one car found full of used drug paraphernalia and action taken against the driver. A suspect male was stopped in the early hours and checked after being believed to be have been involved in break ins in the area.

       ➡️  Key-less entry theft remains a concern. Please use Faraday pouches, remove visible items, and consider physical deterrents                   like steering wheel locks.
