Start of School Patrols

Start of School Patrols

Here’s a quick update on anti-social behaviour locally. We know it can be distressing, but we’re working closely with partners to make the area safer and support residents. 
 

Your local officers were on patrol today to welcome in the new school year.

Officers were on foot patrol of Station Approach around school kick out time, a time and location that is a hot spot for anti-social behaviour and robberies.

Across the time spent on Station Approach, 3 youths made off from officers.
They were all caught and searched - cannabis was seized and a balaclava was found.

Please continue to report and engage with your local team; any and all information is what helps us form the bigger picture and put ourselves in the places we need to be.

Any information provided to us, no matter how big or small, may be the final puzzle piece we are missing!

Across London we’ve put hundreds more officers on the frontlines of community crime-fighting teams, upping visible patrols in the right ‘hot spots’ so we can deter and catch criminals - including with new tech like live facial recognition cameras, drones and e-bikes. 

Antisocial behaviour can come in many forms and can require support from more organisations than just the police. A full list of what we categorise as antisocial behaviour is available on our website.  

If you have experienced anti-social behaviour or have information regarding an incident, please report it using our online reporting tools at https://www.met.police.uk or call the non-emergency number 101.  

Alternatively, you can stay 100% anonymous by contacting the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 or via their untraceable online form at www.crimestoppers-uk.org
