Vehicle Crime as requested by local residents.

Action taken:
The team have prioritised patrols at key times and locations to prevent vehicle crime. Sometimes we use unmarked vehicles so you might not always see us.

We have also conducted joint work with our Road Policing colleagues who have been in the area overnight.

We have worked across Holbrooks, Kersley, Radford, Coundon and Allesley.

Vehicle crime reports are reducing across the North West of Coventry which is good news. However, we are asking divers in Holbrooks and Bablake in particular to ensure they lock their cars and vans and don't leave valuables on display.

If you have information about crime please contact West Midlands Police.

Road safety and drug dealing as raised in public meetings and by local Councillors.

Your Policing Team recently carried out Operation Chino which was targeted activity with Partner Agencies and our Community, reacting to concerns raised by residents and businesses across Radford, Holbrooks, Bablake and Sherbourne. Joint operations ranging from providing crime prevention advice and considerate parking awareness to making 7 arrests and seizing tens of thousands of pounds worth of drugs and illegal goods. The Operation saw over 30 speeding motorists caught, 11 vehicles seized, 3 stolen vehicles recovered and a drugs house shut down with a closure order.
We thank local residents and Councillors who gave up their time to help us keep the community safe.
