🚓 Saturday 21st February – Patrol Update

While patrolling the Longfellow Avenue area, PC Morris spotted a vehicle parked in a back alley. This location has recently been raised by residents due to ongoing concerns about the persistent use of nitrous oxide 😔.

On approaching the vehicle, balloons were seen on the front passenger seat. The two occupants were subsequently detained for a Section 23 Misuse of Drugs Act stop‑search.

A search of the vehicle revealed several nitrous oxide canisters ⚠️. One of the males admitted they belonged to him and was dealt with via a Community Resolution. This means he is recorded as a suspect on a crime for possession of a Class C drug, and it will appear on an enhanced DBS check.

We will continue to patrol your area 🚶‍♂️🚓 and act on the concerns you report to us. Your information truly helps us keep the community safe 🤝.
