Plane crash in Ahmedabad
The UK is working with local authorities in India to urgently establish the facts and provide support to those involved.
Wiltshire Police is divided into ten Neighbourhood Policing Teams (NPTs). Each NPT is led by an inspector and comprises of sergeants, police constables (PCs), police community support officers (PCSOs) and is supported by additional officers from the wider area to help serve the community and keep you safe.
The teams work closely with local authorities, organisations, partners and residents to identify policing priorities. This collaborative approach helps develop long-term solutions to local issues.
Hare Coursing and Rural Related Crime
Issued 22 May 2025
Increase identified in reports of hare coursing in the rural areas around Marlborough. This time of year, after crops have been harvested, we often see an increase in reports of hare coursing and the associated damage to land. The concerns with crimes of this nature are that on occasions hare coursing activities are linked with rural burglaries and theft of plant and farm machinery.
Locally we are increasing patrols in our rural areas along with working alongside our dedicated Rural Crime Team.
Positive action to disrupt hare coursing in our rural areas and continue to build a visible presence in our communities.
