Officers also conducted a stop search for stolen goods, recovering multiple stolen items that were returned to their owners.

During the patrols, police issued nine section 35 dispersal orders for anti-social behaviour and seized two stolen vehicles and one illegal e-bike. Officers also attended four multi-agency meetings to discuss safeguarding measures for vulnerable people and held community contact points at local supermarkets in areas including Wallisdown, Winton and Muscliffe.

In Sherborne, police have increased patrols on the Corelli Estate after residents reported anti-social behaviour involving off-road motorbikes, e-bikes and e-scooters. The Sherborne Neighbourhood Policing Team said they will seize any vehicles being used in this way where they can identify the user. Police have encouraged residents to continue reporting incidents to help officers target problem areas.
