Current priorities
Motor Vehicle Crime
Crime prevention stalls and door to door enquiries, highlighting the use of trackers, steering wheel locks and ghost immobilisers. Run operations such as OP Huntsman to target and arrest offenders.

Drug offences
Carry out plain clothes patrols in order to detect and deter drug use and dealing. Build on intelligence and carry out warrants on persons and venues identified to disrupt dealing in the locality.
