Justice Seen, Justice Done - latest news from Larkhall ward police team

The Larkhall Safer Neighbourhoods Team has recently issued an update for local residents:

Burglar Arrested

After a series of burglaries in and around the area of Killyon Road SW8, officers from Lambeth Police and Larkhall Safer Neighbourhoods Team (SNT) increased their activity in this locality. On Tuesday 16th November 2009 a man was arrested whilst in the commission of a burglary at a premises in Killyon Road.

Residents are reminded to have a good five-lever mortice deadlock fitted to their external doors. The importance of having a simple sash stop fitted to sash windows cannot be stressed enough. Both of these security measures can help to deter and prevent your home being a target for a burglar.

Stockwell Gardens Estate

The Larkhall SNT would like to hear from anyone who has experienced anti-social behaviour by groups of youths on the Stockwell Gardens Estate.

In partnership with Hyde Southbank Homes and Lambeth Community Safety unit, the Larkhall SNT is in the process of applying for a dispersal zone on the estate. We need your help and support in providing examples where you have been affected by anti-social behaviour.

After a spate of graffiti on the estate the Larkhall SNT have arrested two youths for criminal damage who were caught on the Hyde Southbank Home’s CCTV system. They are currently on bail and are due to be charged with this offence on their return.
