Reports from local residents of drug activity and drug dealing in the town.

Actively targeting our known offenders, vehicles and addresses within Penrith town. This is done by conducting high vis foot patrol, plain clothes, gathering information via Streetsafes and submitting intelligence. Our main is always to get warrants granted from the courts and Eden NPT will execute these. We always ensure we are listening to the public and residents and will follow up any issues. If appropriate we are carrying out stop searches on nominals and seizing vehicles.
We continue to gather intelligence from the local community in regards to drug activity within the town.
We are continuing to complete street safe surveys in areas which have been affected.

Several arrests have been made in relation to drug offences with investigations on going.
