What’s been happening? Good news

Officers visited Brambles Nursery at Yorkswood School, Kingshurst for their topic "people that help us", they also got to sit in a police vehicle.

Officers have been out in the area looking for CCTV opportunities in relation to the recent vehicle cannibalisms across the North of Solihull. 

We recovered a vehicle that had been reported stolen from September following a tip off from a member of the public. 

Officers pulled a driver over after witnessing them on their mobile phone. A quick check revealed that the male was uninsured and only held a provisional licence. The vehicle was seized, and he has been reported for the three offences.

Following community intelligence regarding a possible cannabis grow in Smithswood, the team made an application for a warrant, and it was authorised the same day. The team executed the warrant on the 16th where 50 cannabis plants were found. A female was arrested and interviewed by two of our officers for production of cannabis.

On the 16th the team arrested a 14-year-old boy for Affray after CCTV caught him and another male fighting causing each other serious injuries.
