Our local police have again made the news following a huge drug and cash haul following a raid in Lozells!
These are due to tip-offs and information from local people who do not want our beautiful area associated with drugs and the crime and anti-social behaviour that accompanies it.
Anyone with information on those responsible for drug crime in their neighbourhood should call police on 101. Alternatively, people who do not want to speak with police officers directly can call the independent charity Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
A further benefit of this successful raid is that the proceeds of crime will eventually be coming back into our communities in the form of Proceeds of Crime Act funding available to communities, as reported here
