Increased Patrols Deliver Swift Results Following Anti-Social Behaviour Reports

In response to reports of antisocial behaviour in the vicinity of William Fairburn Way, officers have implemented an enhanced patrol strategy to provide increased visibility and reassurance to the community. This afternoon (18/04/2026), officers conducted three stop‑and‑search encounters as part of these targeted patrols. One individual was subsequently arrested following the searches.

We remain committed to addressing community concerns promptly and proportionately, and officers will continue to maintain a sustained presence in the area. Further patrols and engagement activity will be carried out to ensure residents feel safe and to deter any recurrence of antisocial behaviour.
