Action taken:
Issues with drug dealing on the Murdishaw estates at various times and locations:
Over the past month, we have executed a number of warrants around the area including on Kilncroft, Petersgate and Sextant Close. These warrants resulted in offenders being arrested and quantities of drugs, money and other related items being found. We will continue to act on information reported by the public.During the evening and weekends there was ASB involving youths in Marina Village and some fishing without a licence:
Over the summer and leading in to autumn officers provided a visible presence in uniform and in plain clothes. A number of offenders where identified, and we took robust action and issued Community Resolutions to those applicable. We also worked in partnership with Holton borough council and the ASB Officer to deter further issues.Police should be engaging with the local community more:
We have conducted a number of primary School visits with PC Panda hosting Q&A sessions. This will continue throughout the school year. At the end of summer, we hosted KOPS 'N' KIDS every Thursday/Friday at Brookvale Leisure Centre for local children. We will also be running various operations over the next few months targeting ASB that will help us to engage with and interact with youths who are out in the area.
