Officer's seized this vehicle this morning after witnessing a dangerous maneuver overtaking a learner driver. The vehicle had already received a s.59 ASB warning in September. Clearly the warning did not improve their manner of driving and it is now off our roads.

Last night, a prolific shoplifter, that has been hitting several shops around Lyndon, was arrested by...Sgt Willetts and PC James of course. They're becoming quite the duo on our patch 💪💪

PC James pursued this vehicle for a short distance. The occupants ran with Sgt Willetts leading the chase, catching one of them. Both PC James and Sgt Willetts joined our team just this week. Talk about first impressions! Great proactive work all round 🙌

Thank you to the beavers for having us at their meeting this evening at 1st Solihull Scouts Hut.
