2 More arrests during plain clothes operation

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. 
 

Good Morning Wallington South Resident,

I hope this finds you well, I wanted to provide a quick update following a second day of plain clothes work in Wallington, officers have caught a man in his 60s stealing £200 worth of goods from local businesses after PC Geary has detained him he has found that the bag used to steal was also stolen from a different store on WOODCOTE ROAD, the male has subsequently been arrested and charged and is due to appear at court at a later day.

A second male has been arrested trying to avoid police on an e-bike and a subsequent chase starting on Stafford Road ended with him getting arrested and his bike being seized as we appreciate the concerns from the community around bike related ASB!

As we get more results I will keep you updated.

Have a great day.

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.
