Current Priorities
Issue
Anti-social behaviour (ASB), including youth violence is an ongoing priority.
Action
We are working with a range of partners to address root causes of anti-social behaviour in the area. This includes the use of civil injunctions and arresting for criminal offences. Our local policing team is also working closely with Youth Offending Services to reduce this behaviour.
Issue
Vehicle crime and suspicious activity, mainly taking place overnight with insecure vehicles and homes being targeted.
Action
We have worked alongside our forensics and criminal investigation department (CID) colleagues, which has resulted in a number of key arrests and charges being brought against several suspects. This type of offence has seen a decrease more recently, however local officers continue to be vigilant and investigate all reports of suspicious activity in this area. This work remains ongoing.
