Tackling anti-social behaviour.

Our county proactive and rural crime teams have supported us with high visibility patrols in this area. Several arrests have been made of individuals identified through intelligence and proactive policing work. We will continue to monitor the issues.
Issue
Drugs in Eccleshall High Street and surrounding areas
Action
Successful bid for out County Pro Active and Rural team to spend time in the local area targeting nominals based on the intelligence we have received. This has resulted in several stop searches and a vehicle of a nominal involved in dealing drugs being seized. Investigations remain ongoing and we will continue to patrol the area with uniform and plain clothes officers.
