Good News

This past week has seen a number of Remembrance Services around the area which the team have been proud to take part in. We laid wreaths and took part in the main parade in Shirely as well as attending smaller local services in Olton and other areas. It is very important to not only our team, but West Midlands Police that we take part in such important services to remember the fallen.

The team also took park in supporting a Royal visit to the area with the Duke of Edinburgh visiting to highlight local businesses and developments in the Solihull area. Specially trained Project Servator Officers from the team took part in the operation to ensure security and allowed for the visit to go off without a hitch.

A high-risk domestic violence and stalking offender the team arrested will be spending Christmas, and then some, behind bars after being remanded following our arrest. This has safeguarded the victim and allowed a lot of people some well-deserved peace of mind.

The team have recovered a stolen the motor vehicle thanks to a tip off from a local member of the community. The vehicle was stolen from Shirely a few days prior and located in our area before being recovered and returned to the rightful owner.

Please make sure your vehicles are locked and secured, and no valuables are left in the vehicle!
