Dear Residents 

An update from your local Sherbourne Police Team. 

WHAT’S BEEN HAPPENING?

OP ADVANCE

Officers have been out and about in the local area conducting targeted patrols for anti-social behaviour at retail parks and green spaces. Joint visits with Citizen Housing officers have been conducted with tenants who are causing issues in the community as well as safe and well visits with vulnerable members of the community. Warrants and high visibility engagement have also been conducted in the area. 

Immigration conducted a warrant at an address where they found a cannabis factory. The local neighbourhood team were involved in the dismantle and disposal of a hundred plants. 

Elsewhere, PCSO’s have been involved with speed watch operations at locations where residents have reported vehicles driving at excessive speeds and proactive patrols have been conducted to try and detain illegal bikes and electric scooters. There are more speed watch operations  planned in for next week. 

CRIME UPDATE 

A burglary of a shed has been reported in Lincroft Crescent. Unknown Offenders have broken the padlock off the shed door and made of with items from it. 

Two prolific shoplifters have been arrested and charged with a number of shopliftings at a local store. Officers continue to make progress with apprehending criminals that commit this type of crime. 

And Finally……

We are in the process of organising another forum meeting. We will update you on a date for this over the next two weeks. 

Regards

Sherbourne Neighbourhood Police Team

Street watch is a community patrol initiative that helps you make a difference where you live. Street watch gives you and your community an opportunity to keep your area safe, including just walking round your neighbourhood, which can really help. Local police keep in regular contact with street watch members to share information and work in partnership with you. You will also be patrolling with your local PCSO’s once a month.
