Anti-social behaviour in Aylestone Meadows.
We have increased our presence in Aylestone Meadows and dealt with a number of minor incidents of anti-social behaviour, including the use of motorbikes and drug activity. We have seen an increase in graffiti and so will be trying to identify those responsible. Our presence has also resulted in the disruption of anti-social behaviour incidents and the seizure of a car for no insurance. If you have information that could help us, you can report it anonymously through the Crimestoppers website.
