Deployment Update

Good afternoon Ringwood, 

I hope you are all well. We have recently taken part in a county lines intensification week where we seek to target those who cause the most harm in our community. As part of this week, we carried out the following:

Arrested a 44 year old male from the Ringwood area for possession with intent to supply a class B drug after searching his address and locating illegal drugs and scales. 

Seized a vehicle that was actively involved in crime in the Ringwood area. 

Seized a dog that was suspected to be a banned breed within Ringwood and had been reported to scaring local residents and running loose.

Dealt with several reports of dangerous dogs in the area.

Continuing to target local shoplifters in Ringwood and the surrounding areas with recent court summons and prosecutions taking place. 

In addition, we also recently seized several quad bikes that were unregistered and uninsured being ridden across the New Forest to assist the New Forest Rangers. This causes significant damage to the land and wildlife so we were glad to assist! 

We have also had a Criminal Behaviour Order granted for one of our prolific offenders. More to follow!

I have been away on leave for 2 weeks so I apologise for the delay in any updates.
