Melton rural south

RURAL THEFTS Through feedback from beat surgeries and community engagements the community have raised the issue of Farming Equipment Thefts on the Melton Rural South Beat.

The beat team have learnt what to look out for and in conjunction with the Rural Policing Team are out deterring and looking to catch thieves working the area.
The level of rural crime has reduced on the beat but we will continue the patrols day and night and look to be out to protect our rural business community as we are now well into the summer months.

ROAD SAFETY Through Neighbourhood Link, and Social media accounts the community have raised the issue of Road Safety issues on the NR30 beat area. Specifically speeding vehicles and collisions.

Your beat team are working to reduce road casualties - we respond to live incidents, work pro-actively to deal with traffic offences and set up operations in higher risk areas.
As we are leaving summer months we will continue to have an increase in pro-activity to prevent loss of life and injury on the road.

DRUGS: Through feedback from beat surgeries and community engagements the community have raised the issue of drug taking on the Melton Rural South Beat.

PC Tranter and PCSOs French and Wittering, use patrols to visit rural locations on the beat where drug use is noted.
We receive information from the public as well as police led intel gathering to build a picture around dealing and supply.
