Community Policing Priorities
Antisocial behaviour, Violence and Disorder:
On the 28th of September, Police were called to an address on South Anderson Drive regarding a male causing a disturbance within a private address, officers attended, and the male was arrested and conveyed away from the property. It was an isolated incident with no involvement to the wider community.
On the evening of the 29th of September, a resident of Hutchison Terrace reported that on reviewing his ring doorbell he saw a male attempt to open the front door to his property. The youth was unsuccessful and ran off in the direction of Great Western Road. As there was a time delay in reporting of over 24 hours and there were no other reports of similar incidents in the area, officers attended and seized the footage, which was circulated to officers across the city to gain an identification.
Acquisitive Crime:
On the 29th of September a retail store in Countesswells Road area reported 2 thefts within quick succession, one of the shoplifters was known to staff, which allowed officers to quickly trace and charge the male. The female remains outstanding.
Road Safety & Road Crime:
On the 4th of October a dog was hit by a car on Countesswells Road. The car driver contacted Police as striking a dog is a reportable road collision. Details were exchanged by the owners and incident closed off.
On the 12th of October 2 vehicles were involved in a collision at the junction of Anderson Drive and Seafield Road. Whilst the criteria for non-attendance was initially met however as there were 2 vehicles causing an obstruction and the parties were refusing to exchange detail, officers had to attend and encourage their cooperation in the process and movement of the vehicles.

On a happier note, on the 29th of September, Police attended a report of a found dog on Lousiville Avenue, before officers could attend and take possession of the dog, the owner called and to report their dog had escaped, the details were passed of where their dog was, and they went to collect it without Police involvement.
