Current priorities
Shop thefts
Patrols will continue to conduct high visibility presence over the coming weeks and build intelligence around prolific offenders.
Set: 2026-05-02
Drugs
We continue to review and act on drugs intelligence. For operational and data protection reasons we are unable to give specific details of locations / premises or persons that we are currently investigating. We have been working with other agencies to tackle individuals of concern linked to drug misuse. We ask that you report any concerns around drugs misuse that you have. You may have information that adds to an ongoing concern, and this can really help when we apply for Warrants. You can speak to us at any Police Station in confidence or alternatively report anonymously via ‘CrimeStoppers’ at https://crimestoppers-uk.org/

Anti-Social Behaviour
With lighter nights there has been a rise in ASB across the Cottingham area. These incidents include criminal damage, the riding of illegal E-bikes and off-road bikes anti-socially in the town centre. We will be identifying the culprits and dealing with them.
