Nuisance vehicles.

Issued 21 July 2026

Officers continue to take action against nuisance vehicles and irresponsible riding in the area. During a recent patrol, officers identified an e-bike being ridden in a manner that put other road users at risk and nearly caused a collision. The rider left the area, but the vehicle was located and seized. Officers later identified and stopped the rider as part of their ongoing enquiries. Regular patrols continue across the area to deter the antisocial use of vehicles, identify offenders and improve safety for residents and other road users. Information provided by the community helps officers target their activity and take action where concerns are reported.

Burglaries and theft related offences.

Issued 21 July 2026

Preventing burglary and theft remains a priority for local officers. Regular high-visibility patrols are carried out across the area, particularly in locations where concerns have been raised by residents. Following reports of shed burglaries, patrols have been increased to provide reassurance to the community and help deter further offences. Officers also encourage residents to take simple steps to protect their property, such as securing sheds, garages and outbuildings, locking doors and gates, and reporting any suspicious activity. Working together with the community helps reduce opportunities for crime and keep local neighbourhoods safe.
