Officers have been carrying out high‑visibility patrols in hotspot areas where antisocial behaviour has been reported. A joint visit has also taken place with partner agencies to target repeat offenders.

One illegal bike was seized, and the rider was reported for driving offences.

In a separate incident, another rider was given a Section 59 warning due to antisocial behaviour. A Section 59 warning is issued when a vehicle is being used in a way that causes alarm, distress or annoyance to the public. If the rider or the bike is seen causing antisocial behaviour again, police have the power to seize the bike.

Antisocial behaviour (ASB) - general.

Issued 03 February 2026

Acceptable Behaviour Agreements were issued to children identified as being involved in local disorder. These agreements have had a positive impact and have helped reduce incidents of antisocial behaviour. An Acceptable Behaviour Agreement sets clear expectations about behaviour and supports young people and their families to make positive changes.

Close joint working with partner agencies has further supported this reduction, helping to ensure a coordinated and effective approach across the district.

In addition, targeted activity at addresses linked to antisocial behaviour has identified drug dealing activity in the Repton and Goat Lees areas. This work has led to several arrests for offences including obstructing police and possession of an offensive weapon. These actions have disrupted criminal activity and helped improve community safety.

We continue to work closely with relevant housing associations to achieve a lasting, long‑term reduction in antisocial behaviour.
