Priority:
Residential burglary
Action taken:
Residential burglary remains a top priority for our force, especially in Birmingham. Despite a significant 26% reduction in residential burglaries across the West Midlands, we understand the profound impact this crime has on individuals and communities.
To address this, we are working closely with our response and neighbourhood crime departments to ensure that every reported burglary is attended to promptly. We are committed to exploiting every opportunity to identify and prosecute offenders, ensuring justice for victims and enhancing community safety.
We have dealt with a number of car key burglaries recently and are encouraging residents to stay vigilant in preventing crime.

Priority:
Antisocial behaviour and shoplifting
Action taken:
There has been a lot of work with local businesses in order to identify prolific offenders and bring them to justice. Additionally we have responded to complaints around parts of Slade Road and dealt with a number of street drinkers. This work is ongoing but remains a priority.
-
Priority:
Drug dealing
Action taken:
Drug dealing in the community appears to have increased and we are committed to tackling this by increasing patrols at known drug dealing hot spots.
We are also seeking to execute warrants at addresses suspected to be involved in the production and supply of illicit substances.
