ROBBERY PATROLS ARRESTS

Alongside our usual proactive patrols, Stratford Town Centre Team have been carrying out dedicated proactive robbery patrols throughout this year – which has included intelligence-led high visibility patrols, and we have achieved not far off 100 arrests since January on this work, disrupting serious crime in Stratford.

RECENT ARRESTS

In what was a busy week last week, we arrested several suspects for offences including Stalking, Shoplifting, Assault and Criminal Damage. 

A POSITIVE RESULT FROM COURT

Some other good news from court recently: earlier in the summer, eagle-eyed Town Centre Team officers spotted a male acting suspiciously crouched between two cars near Maryland Station. He was detained for a search and found with a knife in his coat pocket. He was arrested and charged, receiving at court last week 9 months in prison and a fine.
