Violence Related Priority

We are committed to the reduction of violent crime.

Officers continue to engage with local community groups, business and residents when on patrol to offer crime prevention and security advice. Officers maintain a visible presence in high crime and high footfall areas utilising marked vehicles and foot patrols where appropriate.

Drugs

Target and disrupt drug related activity across the ward.

Officers continue to conduct both plain clothes and high visibility patrols across the ward to target drug dealing. These operations have led to seven recent stop and searches which resulted in three positive detections for possession of drugs. Officers continue to build a broader intelligence picture of key individuals involved in drug supply across the ward with a view to specifically targeting these individuals through a combination of direct stops and warrants under Section 23 Misuse of Drugs Act.

Burglary

Aim to reduce incidents of burglary.

Regarding burglaries, officers continue to conduct proactive patrols to deter offenders and, when incidents of burglary do occur, assist detectives in their ongoing investigations to help locate and apprehend those responsible.

In an emergency always call 999. If it is not an emergency, you can report crime online at www.met.police.uk or dial 101.
