The team are focussing on intelligence gathering and taking action to target those on illegal e bikes and scooters.

Operations have been taking place, where different tactics have been used to identify those on illegal e bikes and scooters, gathering intelligence. Warrants have taken place , linked to those using the Bikes for drug dealing, carrying out ASB and stealing the bikes to re-sell. This work continues as intelligence is gathered.

Members of the Public have reported issues in and around the area of Edward Wilson House and Scott House.

A Scan analysis had taken place and a SARA Plan has been created to tackle the issues being reported. A Closure Order has already been issued on a local address, which protects the resident of people attending the address and also prevents the community of the ASB at the address. This work continues...

The team are focussing on crime prevention for bicycle theft and Burglaries in the area.

Bike Marking Events continue in the area ( as advertised on our Facebook and X social media pages) and WIDE crime prevention advice leaflets have been distributed in the local area when a Bike theft or Burglary has occurred. This will continue, especially during the Winter months , when it is dark for longer.
