POLICE, CRIME AND ANTI-SOCIAL BEHAVIOUR UPDATE 19 JANUARY – 1 FEBRUARY 2022

CRIME STATS There has been a slight increase in crimes reported in the last 2 weeks at a total of 294 crimes. However, this could be due to the relaxation in covid rules allowing

for a rise in the volume of people hence more reports. There have been 51 incidents of antisocial behaviour reported, showing a decrease from 65 in previous weeks.

NATIONAL NEIGHBOURHOOD POLICING WEEK Last month, the Bristol central neighbourhood police team were together with other neighbourhood teams across the force involved in conducting a series of mini-policing operations during the week 17th23rd January. This gave police officers and police community support officers alike an excellent opportunity to concentrate on tackling several different issues and priorities affecting the city centre area. These were planned activities in response to reports from concerned members of the public and business premises in the city.

Policing activities included targeting offenders of many different kinds such as persistent shoplifters, traffic-related offences on E-scooters, inconsiderate delivery moped riders, taxi-related breaches, drugs suppliers and also Project Servator deployments (antiterrorist, reassurance patrols). Various tactics from education, engagement and enforcement were utilised as appropriate and the week was an overall success. We look forward to running more productive operations such as these in the future.
