By Hartlepool Alert

On Friday 5th April 2019 members of the Hartlepool Community Safety Team attended Teesside Magistrates Court to apply for premises closure orders on an address in St Bees Walk, Hartlepool. This follows on from numerous complaints over recent months, from partner agencies and the local community, in relation to drug related antisocial behaviour, from the premises. With the continued patience and support of local residents, the Community Safety Team were granted Closure Orders for 3 St Bees Walk, Hartlepool. Acting Inspector Adrian Dack said, we have tried to tackle these issues with a low level approach, however due to the people involved, the continued criminal activity and the levels of anti social behaviour, we had to take a much firmer stance, as those involved would not listen to what the community had to say, that this will not be tolerated in any form, leaving us with no option but to apply to close the premises for 3 months. For the next 3 months, any persons entering the address, are committing criminal offences and can be dealt with accordingly. Should you witness any persons breaching the closure order, you can report this to Cleveland Police by calling 101 or 999 if it is an emergency. If you wish to contact Hartlepool Borough Councils anti social behaviour team you can do so on 01429 523100
