    Retail crime rises the cost for everyone. Prolific shoplifters are often stealing hundreds of pounds worth of stock each day which is then being sold in the community to purchase drugs. Your local neighbourhood team work closely with retailers to tackle these issues directly. Officers and retail staff are working together to ensure all crimes are reported and any known offenders are named.
