Suspected stolen items seized by our neighbourhood officers have been donated to a local charity who support survivors of domestic abuse.

The items, including clothing and toiletries, were donated to Living Keys Freedom From Domestic Abuse founder Linda to help the people they support.

When stolen goods canā€™t be returned, weā€™re proud to work with local charities to ensure the items can make a difference.

The Peterborough-based charity was nominated by Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Police and Crime Commissioner

Due to an increase in reports of anti-social behaviour, our southern neighbourhood team applied to the courts for a partial closure order on a house in Delph Court, which was granted last week.

The order is in place for three months, and you can read more about it here šŸ‘‰ https://orlo.uk/EofEf

Failure to comply with the order is a criminal offence which could result in imprisonment for up to three months, a fine, or both.

Anyone with information about the order being breached should contact police by calling 101 or online šŸ‘‰ https://orlo.uk/e9Ukp

A suspected shoplifter thought she got away with a close shave earlier this week until she ran into two of our neighbourhood officers on patrol in Eastfield Road.

She was stopped, the items seized and an investigation into the matter is ongoing.

In a separate incident, officers located a stolen vehicle in Millfield, with the driver arrested for the theft as well as driving without a license or insurance.

Tackling retail crime and nuisance vehicles are a priorities for our Eastern Neighbourhood Team. For more on what they've been doing to tackle the issues, or information on policing where you live, visit our website: https://orlo.uk/GE4l1

Once upon a time, in a cosy semi-detached house on a quiet Cambridgeshire street, there lived a man called Ken. Ken loved nothing more than chatting to people. Living alone at 85 could get a little lonely sometimes and Ken wasnā€™t able to get out and about as much as he used to.

He loved nothing more than phone calls with friends and relatives, chatting to them about their day and discussing what he was planning to watch on TV later.

Ken was quite happy to chat to anyone ā€“ delivery men, the postwoman, people from his energy company when he rang to pay his bill ā€“ he could jabber away with the best of them.

Unfortunately for Ken, there also lived a fraudster who liked to prey on lonely old people. He liked to engage them in conversation over the phone and convince them he was from the bank or local police force.

He would concoct stories about needing their help in an investigation. He would ask them to share details over the phone and send couriers to their home to collect bank cards and cash as part of the ā€œinvestigation.ā€

For many like Ken, the ending to this story isnā€™t a happy one.

Protect yourself and loved ones from courier fraud:

āš ļø Your bank or the police will never ask you to transfer money to a safe account
āš ļø Your bank or the police will never send a courier to your home to collect bank cards, cash, or other valuables such as jewellery
āš ļø If in doubt, end the call and contact the organisation directly using contact details from their official websites or the back of your bank card
āš ļø Donā€™t trust the Caller ID display on your phone - itā€™s not proof of ID
āš ļø You can report suspected scam calls by sending a text to 7726 with the word ā€˜Callā€™ followed by the callerā€™s number.
āš ļø If you've been a victim of fraud, report it to the police

As part of , we wanted to highlight the great work of one of the teams that you may not hear about as much - our Neighbourhood Support Team.

They are a team dedicated to dealing with:

šŸ‘®County lines and organised crime
šŸ‘®Supporting and safeguarding those vulnerable to cuckooing (you can find out more about that here: https://orlo.uk/CfxHs)
šŸ‘®Individuals who carry knives
šŸ‘®The exploitation of children and vulnerable adults

Inbetween these tasks, they also proactively patrol the hotspot areas for drug dealing and violence and carry out stop-searches.

The team predominantly operate in plain clothes ā€“ so whilst you may not always see them, it doesnā€™t mean they arenā€™t there! šŸ˜‰

Thanks to their hard work in identifying and arresting key individuals, numerous custodial sentences have been secured recently following investigations, such as:

We will continue to highlight what the team gets up to, so keep an eye out for more.

Corey Davis, 34, doesn't like to be told "no".

After a member of the public refused to give him a cigarette, Davis launched into a vicious attack outside Peterborough Central Library, leaving the victim with serious facial injuries.

When a family member refused to give him money, Davis repeatedly turned up at their home, shouting, and bombarding them with calls and messages for almost a year.

His actions have now led to him being jailed.
