At a meeting of the Police And Communities Together group on in July, community support officer for Huncoat Suzanne Crawford stated, “Over the last two months there were 173 incidents recorded in the ward. Out of those incidents 14 were recorded as crimes which is a reduction of about 50% from the previous two months.”
Councillor for Huncoat, Eamonn Higgins, stated, “I think the reduction in the crime figures for the ward are very encouraging. We meet with the police on a monthly basis to discuss ways of dealing with local problems and also we have two extra part-time Community Support Officers who work mostly in the evenings to deal with anti-social behaviour. We have two very dedicated members of the police here in Huncoat, PC. Paula Birch and P.C.S.O. Suzanne Crawford who do a fantastic job.By working with local residents, Councillors and the police, we hope we can maintain and even reduce further these fantastic figures."
