🚨 Newport Flat Boarded Up Over Anti-Social Behaviour 🚨
Big news in Newport! A flat in St Stephens Court, Pill, has been boarded up due to ongoing issues with anti-social behaviour and alleged drug use. 🚫🏠 Thanks to concerns from local residents, Gwent Police took action and secured a Closure Order from the Magistrates’ Court. The order, effective until 29th August, requires occupants to leave and bans entry to the property. Attempting to enter could land you in a spot of legal bother! 🚔
This move follows a big operation back in April aimed at tackling these exact concerns, where neighbours reported problems like people hanging around and sleeping in communal areas. To boost security, the management company is looking into extra measures to keep residents safe. 🔒
PC Claire Drayton from the Newport police team is hopeful this action reassures the Pill community that their voices are heard and shows a commitment to keeping the area safe. She emphasises that it’s not just down to the police—community and agency cooperation is key to tackling anti-social behaviour and improving life for locals.
