Here’s a quick update on anti-social behaviour locally. We know it can be distressing, but we’re working closely with partners to make the area safer and support residents.
Leyton & Grove Green SNT Updates
Officers from Leyton and Grove Green Safer Neighbourhood Teams (SNT) have continued proactive work across both wards, delivering positive results through partnership working, targeted enforcement, and safeguarding activity. Officers from Grove Green SNT recently participated in a multi-agency visit to an address in Grove Green following intelligence suggesting the property may be linked to a potential cannabis cultivation operation. Enquiries remain ongoing, and partners continue to work together to ensure community safety.
PC Tsang, PC Ahmed and PC Eldred conducted a welfare check at an address in Leyton Ward concerning a vulnerable individual believed to be a victim of cuckooing by organised criminal groups. Upon attending, officers were invited into the property by the resident. Following safeguarding enquiries and checks within the address, officers located a female in possession of Class A drugs.
Further checks revealed that the female was also wanted in connection with two separate parcel theft investigations. She was subsequently arrested and taken into custody.
Officers carried out a number of proactive stop and searches across the wards, resulting in:
• 2 positive stop searches for cannabis
• 2 Penalty Notice for Disorder (PND) tickets issued
These actions form part of ongoing efforts to tackle drug-related activity and anti-social behaviour within the community.
PC Tsang and PC Neagu were conducting targeted patrols around Leyton High Road, E10, when they noticed a male acting erratically and appearing highly agitated. Upon approaching him, the male became increasingly agitated, leading officers to detain him. Following a search, officers found Class A drugs in his possession, and he was subsequently arrested for possession of controlled drugs.
Later that day, PC Tsang and PC Eldred drew their attention to two males loitering in a hotspot area known to police for drug dealing. Officers conducted a search, during which one of the males was found in possession of suspected stolen goods and was unable to provide a satisfactory account for them. Further checks revealed that the male had been wanted since February this year for failing to appear at court. During patrols, officers stopped a male and conducted further checks, which confirmed he was wanted for immigration offences. The male was arrested and passed to the appropriate authorities.
A female was arrested after officers established; she was wanted on recall to prison. Officers also arrested a male for breaching a Community Protection Notice (CPN), demonstrating continued action against persistent anti-social behaviour.
 Across London we’ve put hundreds more officers on the frontlines of community crime-fighting teams, upping visible patrols in the right ‘hot spots’ so we can deter and catch criminals - including with new tech like live facial recognition cameras, drones and e-bikes. Antisocial behaviour can come in many forms and can require support from more organisations than just the police. A full list of what we categorise as antisocial behaviour is available on our website.
