Local policing round up – suspicious man taking property photos… worked for property management company!

Another insight to the local policing log has been written up by Acting Inspector Mike Norbury.

The full overview is below, and covers the Friday 15th into today Saturday 16th , as has been noted before a policing day is not the usual 24hours non-police are used to.

Good Afternoon Wrexham,

A mixed day of crime, concerns and mental health calls.

61 Calls for Service in the past 24hrs.

We had five Prisoners from Wrexham City in Llay Custody this morning. Two of them had breached existing Court Orders and as a result were sent to explain their actions to the Courts. One was a simple warrant from a court and two are to be progressed for various charges – This includes assaulting Police Officers and resisting arrest. It saddens me to see the nightshift going home back to their families with lumps and cuts on them when they are only trying to protect us all and keep our City safe.
