Hello 

Yesterday Burnley Neighbourhood Policing Team conducted a mobile patrol on Pheasantford Green due to numerous reports of ASB in the form of youths congregating outside residents properties smoking cannabis and taking drugs.

Two males were spotted loitering in the sheltered doorway of a residents home. Neither individual had links to the address they were stood at and lived in another Ward area, due to this information as well as the reports made from local residents both individuals were stop searched which resulted in cannabis being found on both persons. They have been dealt with for possession of Class B - Cannabis and advised to leave the area. ‘Personal use’ is not an excuse to be in possession of a controlled substance.

We will continue to conduct foot patrols around this area in the coming days 

Kind Regards
