We took part in a day of action in town on Wednesday as part of countywide efforts to make town and city centres safer by tackling anti-social behaviour (ASB), shoplifting and illegal electric vehicles.

PCs and PCSOs from the team took part in a combined 111 hours of proactive foot and bicycle patrols at known ASB hotspots.

Results from the day include:
• The seizure of three illegal e-scooters;
• Engagement with and safeguarding of a vulnerable individual;
• Speaking with a group of people who regularly cause ASB in town;
• Enforcement of the Public Space Protection Order with several cans of alcohol seized from street drinkers. Alcohol containers can be seized if it is believed that the owner is likely to commit anti-social behaviour as a result of consumption;
• Multiple dispersal notices were served due to repeat calls of ASB and people fighting on the High Street and at St Mary’s churchyard.

We were joined by the local MP Max Wilkinson, and also spoke to several members of the public who wanted to say thank you for the visible presence or ask about crime prevention advice.

Officers from our Licensing Team took part in a test purchase operation where teenagers attempted to buy alcohol from shops.

The operation was conducted alongside Cheltenham Borough Council's Licensing Team on Saturday (22 August).

It involved teenagers from the Police Cadets who attempted to buy alcohol to gauge whether local businesses are being responsible and abiding by licensing laws.

This saw police visit nine shops. Five of the shops checked the teens' ID and refused to serve alcohol however four shops failed and served them.

The teens entered the venues that were being tested accompanied by officers in plain clothes, who observed their attempts to buy alcohol.

The test purchaser is always careful not to lie about their age and does not produce any ID if asked.

Completing the test purchases allowed officers to ensure that licensed premises are meeting their objective under the Licensing Act to ‘prevent children coming to harm’ and enforce any breaches through education, letters or warnings, tickets or taking the premise to review in certain circumstances.

PC Walter from the Licensing Team said: “We regularly carry out joint operations with our partner agencies to ensure licensed premises are operating responsibly.

"On this occasion, four shops failed to uphold their legal obligations, and we will be following up with those businesses and conducting further checks in due course."

Councillor Jamie Jamieson, cabinet member for safety and communities at Cheltenham Borough Council, said: “We regularly work in partnership with Gloucestershire Police to ensure that licensed premises are operating responsibly and in line with the law.

“While it is encouraging that the over half of the businesses refused the sale, it is disappointing that several failed to uphold their legal responsibilities. We will be following up with those premises and will continue to carry out further checks to ensure compliance.”

The penalties for failing a test purchase can include a fine of up to £5,000, prosecution and withdrawal of the premises' licence to sell alcohol.

The businesses that failed will now be offered support to ensure they understand their legal obligations and that staff are aware of their licence conditions to ensure that residents and visitors to Cheltenham are safe.

Good News story !! Police had a report of a found push bike in the Leckhampton area of Cheltenham that was believed to be stolen.

PCSOs Baldwin & Barry attended and carried out checks on the bike on our Police systems and Bike register to see if there were any reports of it being stolen.

Unfortunately, the owner had not reported this into Police.

Luckily the bike had a sticker on from a local bike shop in Cheltenham, the local PCSOs have a good relationship with the bike shops in Cheltenham and after a quick phone-call we managed to find the owner who stated it was stolen 2 days before but did not want to report to Police as they believed they were not getting their bike back.

The owner was pleased to be re united with their bike and PCSOs have now marked the bike-on-Bike register with 2 x tamper proof stickers. This application when stuck on the bike takes 24 hrs for the glue to go off and the stickers cannot be removed.

Police would like to encourage members of the public to report stolen cycles as there is a greater chance they can be returned if found by Police, then we can make arrangements for them to be marked on Bike Register.

We've closed London Road due to a burst sewage pipe which is leaking onto the road and pavement.

We were called by the Fire Service at 8pm with a report that a sewage pipe had burst near to the junction for Old Bath Road.

Severn Trent have been made aware and will be attending but for the meantime we're asking people to avoid the London Road area.

We'd like to apologise in advance for any impact to local residents that the emergency services presence may cause but it is hoped the leak will be fixed soon.

We're appealing for witnesses after a man racially abused and assaulted two other men in town.

It was reported that an unknown man had approached two men on the High Street before shouting racial abuse and punching them.

The victims, who were aged in their 20s, reported sustaining minor facial injuries but did not require medical treatment.

This took place between the Sainsburys Local and Moon Under Water at around 6.20pm yesterday evening (Thursday 13 August).

Officers attended, identified and located a man nearby. He ran away from them, and after a short foot pursuit took place, the man became abusive towards police prior to his arrest.

A man in his 40s and from Cirencester was arrested on suspicion of assault occasioning actual bodily harm and taken to police custody.

He was interviewed by officers and later released on police bail pending further enquiries.

Officers are keen to speak to anybody who may have witnessed the incident and who has not already spoken to police.

The man was described as being white, had brown hair and was wearing a dark blue t-shirt with grey shorts.

Anyone with information is asked to complete the following online form quoting occurrence 53260069966: https://orlo.uk/CQbAT
