Here is your quick round up from me and the rest of the Holbrooks neighbourhood policing team.

Dear Resident,
Here is your quick round up from me and the rest of the Holbrooks neighbourhood policing team.
 
What’s been happening?

On Sunday officers arrested a female who was wanted for a number of shoplifting offences from Greggs stores. The female was arrested and taken to custody where she remained whilst officers completed the file needed for when the female attended court. The female appeared in court on Monday and was charged with four shoplifting offences. 

One of our officers has been busy this week whilst on his patrols. At the start of the week the officer was conducting vehicle patrols when he witnessed a drug deal take place. The officer stopped the offending person and found a quantity of different class A drugs on them. Then on Tuesday the same officer stopped another two persons and found class A drugs on both. 

On Wednesday we conducted patrols around Parkgate Primary School following several complaints relating to parking at the location. Please be mindful when dropping off/picking up children. Do not park on yellow lines or the white zigzag lines at a crossing. Please be aware of resident’s driveways, parking in front of the driveways should be avoided.
