Current priorities

Youth Anti-social Behaviour in the city centre on weekends has been identified for a number of months but we are now seeing an increase in ASB in the evening around Scotch Street and English Street.

This remains an ongoing priority and a high priority for the Neighbourhood Policing Team. Officers are completing regular high-visibility patrols at key times and actively seeking to identify those involved in the ASB. Once identified these individuals will be dealt will appropriately to ensure they do not continue their behaviour. Officers will continue to work with local partners, stakeholders and businesses to target youth ASB and the area will continue to be proactively patrolled at times of high demand.
