During this set, we’ve had a shop theft in Poundland in the town centre. Our officers were quick to respond to the location and the male was swiftly detained for shoplifting, as well as assaulting police officers. The offender was charged and will stay in custody until the investigation has been completed.

We’ve also had a number of instances of ASB at McDonald’s, however, the nominals were reminded of the Public Space Protection Order (PSPO) in place, and were quickly dispersed. We are continuing to crack down on ASB taking place in the town centre by reminding trouble causers that there is a PSPO in place and there will be fines issued for anybody causing trouble.

Don’t forget, PC SPOOR and PCSO AHMED are holding a cuppa with a copper at Lily’s Tea Parlour in the town centre on the 17th of July 2025 between 12PM – 2PM – feel free to come by and meet your town centre’s designated officers.
