A STREET in Honeywell has become the new top priority for police after a significant increase of antisocial behaviour in the last month.
Members of the North Area PACT meeting agreed that Aqueduct Street and the surrounding area should become the PACT priority of the month, after ongoing antisocial behaviour. The PACT meeting, chaired by PS Dave Baines, took place at the TARA office, Mansfield Road on Monday evening which covers the two Darton council wards as well as St Helen’s and Old Town.
Concerns have been raised after 12 incidents of antisocial behaviour were reported to police in the past four weeks, as well as an at risk vulnerable person. The members agreed it was ‘essential’ to prioritise their resources and responses to the Honeywell site, and prevent further incidents.
There will now be increased patrols of the area to survey the antisocial behaviour and monitor behaviour.
