Dear residents and local businesses,

Here is a roundup of what the Foleshill Neighbourhood team officers have been doing this week. 

 OUR Priorities

Our priorities are now business crime, this is an issue all over the north east and officers are proactively patrolling the affected areas. We have officers in plain clothes aswell as in hi visibility uniform.

This week two regular offenders of business crime were arrested and charged with shop lifting and a recall to prison. These offenders will be put before the court for sentencing in the near future. 

Officers were also continuing their hi visibility patrols at the Gallagher retail park. This week officers visited the location with crime prevention items. Officers were armed with purse bells, window alarms, segment timers amongst other things. These items were given out free along with crime prevention advice. The afternoon was very busy with shoppers officers received positive feedback from lots of interactions. 

Shop theft is still a big issue on the retail park this week officers have completed a plain clothes operation targeting prolific offenders, no arrests were made, and enquiries will be ongoing 

IN OTHER NEWS 

Officers completed a cupper with a copper in the Folsehill library this week. Thank you to those that came with issues. These meetings are held regular so please do come along and share any local issues you may have.

This week officers have completed community speed watch in various locations. This is after feedback from residents concerned about speeding drivers in the local area.
