Multiple arrests as part of public order patrols

Multiple arrests were made during a recent set of public order patrols carried out by the Welwyn Hatfield Response Team.

Across the end of August, the following arrests were made:

One man was also arrested on suspicion of stalking whilst three other men were arrested in connection with domestic abuse.

The following person was also arrested and has since been charged:

PC Jack Andrews said: “During these public order deployments, officers arrested eleven individuals and removed dangerous weapons from circulation. We also recovered suspected stolen cash and we safeguarded vulnerable victims.

“I’d like to say a big thank you to colleagues across other departments for their assistance with arrest enquiries, identifying suspects, and supporting the investigations in custody.

“I hope the results of these patrols reassure residents that officers are proactively policing our towns, identifying suspects and taking action to keep people safe.”
