POLICE DETAILS
South Yorkshire Police - Barnsley West Neighbourhood

Concerns were raised re a property on Horsewood Close, Dodworth, due to the amount of ASB being caused at the property, due to the drug and alcohol use at the property at all times of day and night.

We worked alongside BMBC, and local residents to secure a partial closure order at the property.
This prevents anyone from being in the property apart from the occupier, and if anyone is found in the property they and the occupier can be arrested or reported on summons.
