Status Update

Residents previously asked us to focus on the following issues:

Drug issues at Parkhouse Court
• Officers have been carrying out patrols and developing intelligence so that appropriate action can be taken. This could be in the form or arrests or warrants.
• Residents have been encouraged to continue reporting concerns via 101 or online at https://www.herts.police.uk/contact/af/contact-us-beta/contact-us/
• A warrant was carried out in nearby Aviation Avenue on Wednesday 11 February. Two people were arrested at the property, one was later charged and both have now been moved from the area. Roshan Rampton, aged 25, of Aviation Avenue, was charged with possession of cocaine and cannabis. A 33 year old man from Aviation Avenue was given a community resolution for possession of cannabis. Cannabis, cocaine, phones and cash were seized from the property.

Theft of bicycles
• We’ve been carrying out patrols and have been hosting regular bike-marking events which proved popular. Bike marking acts as a visible deterrent to thieves and boosts the chances of the bike being recovered if it is stolen. We recommend that residents also register their bike on the national database www.bikeregister.com
