Crimes and priorities

Priority:
Action taken:
-
Priority:
Retail theft is a national and local problem. We will support large, medium and small businesses, particularly those whose staff feel vulnerable or threatened.
Action taken:
We have arrested and charged the two main offenders causing the majority of problems in Crookes.
We have provided bespoke Conflict Resolution Training to retailers enabling them to recognise and deal with anti-social behaviour and aggression.
We have increased patrols in the areas where data shows the biggest problems are. -
Priority:
Youths, usually on e-bikes, are being abusive and aggressive towards other users in the park and also local residents. This has sometimes resulted in assaults or damage.
Action taken:
We have and will continue to:
- conduct plain-clothes and unifromed operations in the park and surrounding areas
- pursue criminal and civil remedies where possible
- work with partners in retail, education and council to reduce the problems
- tell the community what we have been doing and what results we have had through local meetings and social media
