What we did in April 2022 Here is a snap shot of some of the things officers from the Brigg Neighbourhood Policing Team have been up to during the month of April 2022 Officers from Brigg NPT have seized 2 motorcycles that were being ridden illegally. Working alongside the community Brigg NPT officers were able to locate and recover a stolen vehicle from Mill Lane in Brigg. We attended a Schools Partnership Meeting and a Ward Meeting with our partners were we discussed some of the issues in the area and how we can best tackle these issues together. We liaised with 2 neighbours in Broughton who were at an indifference and supported both sets of neighbours so they can co-exist without fear of falling out. We supported an elderly lady in Roxby who scammers had attempted to coerce in to giving them access to her bank account, luckily this lady was very switched on and foiled the scammers. We have been patrolling a number of 'hotspot' areas were calls for service would identify areas as most in need of police attention. We have been conducting patrols in the areas of, Mill Lane in Brigg, Tesco's in Brigg, Atherton Way in Brigg, Brigg Recreation Ground, Middlegate Lane, Brigg Donky Park, River Ancholme and Phil Grundy Sports Centre in Broughton. We have continued working with a number of vulnerable persons within the locality offering them advice and continued support and linking in with our partners agencies so this support can be sustainable for the future. We have been Humber Talking on Labrador Drive in Broughton and Redcombe Lane, Dixon Close in Brigg. |
