Wiltshire Police continues to carry out regular Project Vigilant deployments, which consist of intelligence-led patrols of hotspot locations to identify potential sexual predators and prevent sexual violence against women and girls (VAWG) across the county.
Local policing teams across Wiltshire carried out over 100 additional public engagements during Safer Business Action (SaBA) week, which took place from last Monday, 10 November, to Sunday 16 November.
Officers increased patrols of Wiltshire’s major road networks to disrupt and intercept criminal activity, as part of a national week of action targeting organised vehicle crime.
