'Hotspot' police patrols lead to city arrests

PLYMOUTH received over 140 hours of police patrols resulting in 10 arrests in the first month of a scheme funded by Police and Crime Commissioner Alison Hernandez.

Hotspot policing, which forms part of a wider Street Focus project run by the Commissioner’s office, is tackling antisocial behaviour and serious violence in Devon and Cornwall.

Commissioner Hernandez secured £1 million of Home Office funding for the project to deliver additional police and uniformed community patrols.

The funding is shared across multiple locations in 13 towns and cities which have been identified as hotspots using crime data. The Commissioner has committed a further £200,000 in funding to help maximise the number of partner patrols across Devon and Cornwall.
