POLICE DETAILS
Humberside Police - Minster and Woodmansey Neighbourhood

Drug dealing around Beverley. We continue to review and act on drugs intelligence.

For operational and data protection reasons we are unable to give specific details of locations / premises or persons that we are currently interested in. We have been working with other agencies to tackle individuals of concern linked to drug misuse.

Throughout the coming weeks the trap bike will be deployed in areas of Beverley where there have been reports of cycle theft, including bike racks on Toll Gavel and Flemingate, which have good CCTV coverage with a view to catching offenders.

Multiagency work will be carried out with the council to obtain and distribute bike locks and other safety features to residents, focusing specifically on young persons.

Tackling street drinking and begging in Beverley. Patrols will continue to show presence around Lord Robert Road shelter to reassure residents and to take positive action. We will continue to speak with shops via the Shop Watch scheme as several of our repeat anti-social behaviour offenders are also involved in shop lifting which will help to see a bigger picture of individual circumstances and offending.

Switch on to safer streets and always leave a light on and keep burglars out

Always lock your doors; even when you leave briefly, are outside on your property, or inside your home. Also, keep your valuables in a safe or lockbox when you go out.
•Lights - You can get plug-in timers for your lamps - and timers for your ceiling lights. Don't just light up the hall. Fool a burglar by lighting up the landing, bathroom, bedroom and living room too. Really fox him by varying the times each light comes on.

•Sound advice - Use a plug-in timer for a radio - make it a talk station rather than music.

•Windows - Remember to shut all windows, even small and upstairs ones, when you leave the house, in your garden or in the rear of your property. If you're upstairs, close your downstairs windows and if you're planning some time away, get a trusted neighbour to shut the curtains at night. You could return the favour some time.

Rural crime is not limited to the farmyard. Serious and organized crime groups are often linked to rural and wildlife crime particularly in relation to theft of agricultural machinery and poaching like hare coursing.

Patrols across East Riding are reminding farmers to review their security and to keep their properties/equipment safe.
In relation to the security of Tractor GPS Receiver and Screens, please visit the Police website for crime prevention advice around MARK IT, REMOVE IT and LOCK IT.

ACTION: work with partner agencies to protect the community and detect crime, including the Rural Crime Task Force, Farm Watch, NFU and Young Farmer Clubs

The period from today (Monday 28 October) to Sunday 10 November is always one of our busiest, however, we would like to offer reassurance to those who are looking to enjoy Bonfire Night or those that prefer not to. We want to remind those intent of causing harm or committing offences, that we are out in force and ready to act against anyone spoiling others’ fun.

You will begin to see additional police presence on patrol in and around your neighbourhood over this period. We really want everyone to enjoy themselves so we want to remind the public we will be there to deal with any incidents promptly.

“We take a zero-tolerance approach when it comes to anyone deliberately looking to harm others enjoying the occasions. This includes people being antisocial and behaving in a way that taunts or intimidates people, or throwing things at people, their houses, or cars.

Fellow Cyclists as the dark nights draw in Humberside Police would recommend the below advice to help keep everybody safe whilst out on our bikes.

Light it up!
Making sure you can see where you’re going is key. So, make sure you have a light on the front and the back of your bike, in fact we think the more lights the better – having a light illuminates the road for things like potholes that you may not otherwise be able to see. So, stay safe and stay light.

Reflective gear
As important it is for you to see, it’s just as important for people to see you. So, make sure you wear reflective gear when you’re cycling in the dark. If you’re a fashion junky never fear, the reflective clothing has become a lot more stylish over the years.

Safety in numbers
If you’re travelling far and it’s getting dark, we would always suggest that you cycle with someone. There is always safety in numbers and it’s good to know you have someone with you if anything does go wrong.

Be prepared!
This can be applied to most things – be prepared for the weather, the infamous British weather changes by the hour so you never know what the nights forecast could bring. Be prepared for punctures, always carry a mechanic kit with you just in case. Be prepared in your journey home – know where you’re going, plan your route so you avoid getting lost in the dark – you could end up going round in circles otherwise.

Make our streets safer and hand in your weapons

Your local community officers will be involved in engagement events to raise awareness prior to and during this operation.

If you have a Weapon, please drop it into one of the amnesty bins located at stations on the map.
