Weekly round-up from your local Neighbourhood Team

Hello Resident,

✅ Good News from Your Local Policing Team ✅

This is a brief message from St Michael’s Team 1 to let you know some of the things we have been doing in your area this week.

St Michael's Officers have been patrolling Lady Herbert's Gardens and Coventry Transport Museum both covertly and overtly with various departments within West Midlands Police. This has led to numerous Arrests, Stop Searches and Civil Interventions issued. This is all in effort to keep the community safe.

St Michael's Officers have worked in partnership with Trading Standards targeting stores selling illegal tobacco products to the public. The operation was a success and this led to numerous seizures of said items from stores.

St Michael's Officers have been working in partnership with other West Midlands Police Departments in Coventry to tackle a rise in Gold Chain snatching offences. This has led to numerous arrests of identified offenders.

PC GAJDOSOVA made a fantastic arrest of a prolific shoplifter in Coventry City Centre this week leading the offender being handed a 24-week custodial sentence at court.
