Abingdon is facing a troubling rise in anti-social behaviour, prompting police to take action and urge residents to stay vigilant
Abingdon: Recently, police have been seeing more reports of anti-social behaviour in the town. This includes things like property damage and graffiti, which is really concerning.
Thames Valley Police mentioned that some homeowners have had their doors banged on and kicked, with the culprits running off afterward. It’s pretty unsettling for those affected.
There was even a case where two homes had their front windows damaged, leaving the homeowners feeling frightened and upset. It’s just not right.
The police are taking this seriously. They’re working with local schools and CCTV operators to figure out who’s behind these incidents. They’ve also stepped up patrols in the area.
They’ve identified a person linked to these issues, which is a good start. But they’re still seeing more graffiti and damage in the town center.
If anyone spots anti-social behaviour or has any info, they should reach out to the police by calling 101 or using the online form. In emergencies, it’s 999.
People can also contact Crimestoppers anonymously if they prefer. It’s important to keep our community safe.
