Dear Resident,
Here is your quick round up from me and the rest of the Holbrooks neighbourhood policing team.
 
What’s been happening?

This week started well with the recovery of a stolen Ford Fiesta. PCSOs on patrol came across the vehicle parked at the end of a road in an area known for stolen vehicles being left. The PCSOs ran a check on the vehicle which showed it had been stolen a few days before. The vehicle was recovered with the help of our recovery agent and the owner was able to get their car back. 

Our officers have also been busy seizing vehicles during their normal patrols of our areas.

Two vehicles were seized this week this first was an Audi stopped by the officers as it was being driven with no insurance. Further checks showed that the driver did not have a licence and the vehicle was also untaxed.

The second vehicle was a BMW that officers encountered on patrols. The vehicle was showing as no valid tax and further checks showed that the driver did not have insurance for the vehicle.

The police officers on the team assisted the gang’s team with warrants at two addresses in Coventry this week. The officers went with two teams from the gang’s unit to the addresses which resulted in two arrests on suspicion of cannabis cultivation.
