Status Update

Suspected shoplifter arrested and charged in Dereham – he’s been bailed with conditions not to enter Dereham for any reason until the court date in June.
Alcohol taken from various street drinkers in and around the town centre as per the new PSPO.
One driver issued with a ticket for not MOT in Dereham.
Visit to Hockering Primary.
Patrols of St Nicholas Church Dereham after reports of anti-social behaviour in the church entrance.
Across Dereham we’ve taken two recent closure orders to the courts after reports of antisocial behaviour. These cases are worked on by local officers and collect lots of evidence of ASB to show why we think these addresses should be closed down.

Villages around the town have been visited by local beat managers and they’ve been focussing on crime prevention and target hardening for rural businesses.
