Current Priorities

Issue

ASB – As Halloween, Bonfire Night and Diwali draws closer we as a beat team are aware that there will be an increase in ASB (Anti Social Behaviour), we will therefore actively patrol our green spaces to ensure we are dispersing groups that may be causing issues.

Action

Plenty of hot spot patrols have been carried out by PCSOs and PCs in known locations, such as Sturdee Road, Ambleside Drive and Pasley Road. Numerous young people have been spoken to and reminded of how their behaviour can affect others. Local primary schools have also been visited.

Issue

Drugs – We are aware of ongoing issues in regards to drugs namely dealing, using and other issues that come from drugs. We are dedicated in tackling those who cause harm in relation to drugs on the EME and welcome any information in regards to those causing these issues.

Action

Work is continuing on the estate in relation to drugs activity. A male in a known hot spot was stopped and searched by officers and was found to have cannabis on him. He will be dealt with appropriately and this has helped to build intelligence on the beat.

Issue

On the Eyres Monsell we have a large number of shops. Currently we are seeing a large amount of theft from stores which effects the wider community with shops upping prices to cover these lost items. We as a beat team are focused in bringing those to justice that create these issues.

Action

One of the areas known shoplifters was arrested by the beat team and was charged with numerous offences and has been given a custodial sentence by the court. He is awaiting a hearing for a Criminal Behaviour Order
