Second closure order granted to prevent further antisocial behaviour at Truro property

A second closure order has been granted at a residential property in Truro making it illegal for anyone to step foot inside for an additional three months.

The property, located on St Thomas Close (Truro), was issued with an initial three-month full closure order earlier in January this year. A further order was granted on 31 March 2026, again banning the tenant and any visitors from entering the address for an additional three months to deter incidents from taking place.

Officers secured this new measure after police and residents noted a significant reduction in antisocial behaviour whilst the initial closure order was in place.

PC Wilson said: “The property had been the cause of a number of issues for local residents in the area.

“It’s important that people feel safe and secure where they live, and the first order was really effective in helping to stop ASB and provide relief to local people.

“When there is a disruption to safety in an area, it’s important for us to take action to protect and safeguard the community from any harm or concern they experience.

“Thank you to everyone who reported issues to us directly or via Crimestoppers. I hope this shows just how vital your information is in helping us to secure orders like this to disrupt crime and antisocial behaviour in our local area.”

The closure order was granted as a result of an investigation carried out by the Truro Neighbourhood Police team and Cornwall Council’s ASB Caseworker.
