The Safer Neighbourhood Team carried out Operation SoundJump (27th 28th and 29th April 2026) to tackle business crime and shoplifting. The operation resulted in several positive arrests for shoplifting, including the arrest and charge of a suspect wanted for multiple linked thefts. As a result, the operation improved crime reporting from businesses and enhanced trust and confidence between retailers and the police.
