POLICE, CRIME AND ANTI-SOCIAL BEHAVIOUR UPDATE 27 APRIL - 10 MAY 2022
CRIME STATS Over the last two weeks there have been 298 crimes reported. Theft has slightly increased and remains the highest reported crime at 101
incidents. As the weather is getting hotter, this is a good reminder to ensure that properties are left secure and windows are not left open.
MAKING COMMUNITIES FEARLESS From 17 – 21 May, local neighbourhood policing teams will be participating in Operation Sceptre. This involves school talks, community events and various projects together in aid of knife reduction within our local communities. Knife crime can cause complete devastation, and during the week we aim to educate everyone, not just school pupils. There will be public engagement amnesty projects for those who are carrying a knife to safely dispose of them.
If you know of someone carrying a knife then please get in contact with us on 101 or if there is a crime taking place, please call 999. Alternatively, you can fill in an online form with FEARLESS, a Crimestoppers service that allows you to pass on information about crime 100% anonymously.
