Mackworth and New Zealand Police SNT

Join the team on Monday the 24th of August to discuss local issues and community concerns.
We will be stationed outside the Co-op between 1pm and 2pm.

We hope to see you there! 👮🏼

This afternoon, PCSOs Nugent and Charles have supported at McDonalds Family Fun to raise money for the Ronald McDonald House Charity.

The PCSOs spoke with lots of families and gave out even more stickers!
The police car is always the fan favourite, and we were able to bring along some of the old uniform for the children to try on. 👮🏼

Thank you to the team at McDonalds for having us 😁

This afternoon, A/Sgt Dolby's eagled eye caught us two E-scooters from the Estate. 🛴

The first scooter, found at an address off of Prince Charles Avenue was seized as suspected stolen, after the young males claimed not to know who it belonged to. 🤷🏻‍♂️

The second scooter was seen further up Prince Charles Avenue before the rider tried to scoot away... fortunately for us, they headed straight for their home address where A/Sgt Dolby and PCSOs where hot on their tail and has it seized minutes later. 👮🏼

This afternoon, PCSO Nugent attended the Summer fair at Maple View School with PCSO Charles and PC Biggs.

It was such a joy to engage with the children and be able to show them the police van, lights and police equipment, before offering out lots of stickers!
Unfortunately, the team were quickly upstaged when the Alpaca's arrived.... The team were quick to agree that Dave (the alpaca) and his friends were much more exciting than the police car, and had the chance to say hello and ask all about them.

Petition to have Police Alpaca's join the team??🦙 👮🏼

Thank you again, to Maple View for having us come along!

| Yesterday officers from Allestree Safer Neighbourhood Team carried about the first operations as part of Operation Tollense, an initiative aimed at tackling anti-social behaviour involving stolen and off-road motorcycles, as well as e-scooters.

We were supported by our Force Drone Team, whose expertise helped us locate riders, identify bikes and uncover locations where offenders are hiding suspected stolen motorbikes.

As a result of the operation, 4 bikes/E-scooters were seized.

This is just the beginning. Further operations will be taking place over the coming months as we continue to target those responsible for anti-social behaviour and work to reduce the number of reports involving nuisance motorbikes across our communities.

If you have information about the illegal use of off-road bikes, stolen motorcycles, or e-scooters, please continue to report it to us. Your information helps us target those causing harm in our neighbourhoods.

LPU Inspector Quarterly Update
Quarterly Period: April – June 2026

Keeping Our Neighbourhoods Safe
Over the past quarter, our neighbourhood teams across Allestree, Darley Abbey, Mackworth and New Zealand have remained focused on keeping our communities safe, listening to local concerns, and working closely with partners to address the issues that matter most to residents.

Proactive Policing Activity
Our approach continues to focus on problem-solving, visibility and partnership working. Officers and PCSOs have conducted regular high-visibility patrols, enforcement activity and engagement across identified hotspot areas. This has included targeted patrols in parks, residential streets and transport routes, as well as joint work with partner agencies to address ongoing issues linked to vulnerability and anti-social behaviour.

Stop and Search
Stop and search powers have been used lawfully and proportionately where officers have had grounds to suspect criminal activity. These powers have supported our work to tackle drug-related crime and protect communities. During the quarter, stop searches were carried out in areas including Greenwich Drive South, contributing to positive outcomes linked to drug misuse and associated criminality.

Tackling Local Concerns
• Developed intelligence into young people who are causing anti-social behaviour and are working with them to deter them from offending.
• We have undertaken a number of intelligence led Misuse of Drugs Act stop searches of individuals with many positive results, these investigations are currently on going.
• Enforced disruption visits to known address to prevent further drug use taking place.
• Conducted several pro-active stops of vehicles linked to drug dealing and searched these vehicles. Positive results have come from these with drugs being seized
• Proactive traffic enforcement including finding a driver under the influence of drugs
• Issued Traffic Offence Reports for unsafe tyres, lighting defects, no insurance and no MOT.
• Worked alongside the community and partners to develop an intelligence framework for the illegal use of motorbikes, identifying those involved and key locations where they are used and kept
• seized several illegal and stolen motorbikes.

Working With Our Communities
Listening to residents remains central to our work. We have attended community meetings in Allestree and Darley Abbey, engaged with youth groups, and used community feedback to shape patrol plans and priorities. Partnership working continues to be key, particularly when addressing vulnerability, anti-social behaviour and environmental concerns.

Final Message
I would like to thank residents for their continued support and engagement with local policing teams. By working together, sharing information and raising concerns, we can continue to make Allestree and surrounding areas safer places to live, work and visit. Please continue to speak with officers, attend local meetings and sign up to Derbyshire Alert to stay informed about what’s happening in your neighbourhood.

| CCTV pictures released following moped theft and series of assaults in Derby

We have released a series of CCTV images as part of our investigation into the theft of a moped and a number of assaults in Derby.

A red Honda moped was stolen by two men from McDonalds at Markeaton Park, Kingsway, at 2.53am on Tuesday 16 June.

The moped was then ridden around Derby city centre, Mackworth and Chaddesden over the next few hours where-by the two riders have assaulted several members of the public.

The offenders mainly targeted cyclists by attempting to kick or punch them.

Several victims sustained minor injuries, except for a 68-year-old man who sustained more serious wounds to his chest, thumb, legs and hands after being hit by the moped.

Officers have been making extensive enquiries since the series of incident, including reviewing CCTV footage of the offence locations.

We have now released CCTV stills of two men riding on a moped who we would like to speak with in connection with the incidents.

Officers appreciate the pictures are not the clearest but we are hoping someone may recognise them or have some information about who the suspects are.

The suspects are described as two tall, slim white men aged in their teens to early 20s.

They had face coverings and gloves, and were seen wearing orange or blue Deliveroo/Just Eat jackets with black jogging bottoms. They have also been seen wearing all dark clothing.

Anyone who knows who the men in the pictures are, has any information about the incidents or has seen the stolen red Honda moped being ridden around is asked to please contact us using one of the methods below and quote reference number 26*349953.
