#EveryLittleHelps | Last night officers from our #Eteam were flagged down by an elderly gentleman stood at his door trying to catch the attention of passing cars 👋🏻🚗
It transpired he lived alone and his TV had stopped working, with officers only too happy to oblige 📺👮♂️
In Jun-Nov 17 we had 2715 moped enabled theft snatches in #Islington. Since then, largely due to brave officers pursuing & knocking these brazen offenders off their stolen mopeds, we had 397 offences in the same period 2018.
That is a reduction of 83%!
Thanks to all involved.

Is anyone missing a large snake? We have one at Islington Police Station that was found by a rather startled member of the public. He had made himself comfortable on top of their boiler. Found in the N1 area. Please call 101 quoting CAD 198/31JUL19.
Great stop by the #CNGangsUnit this week after a male tried to make off. After a stop and search he was found with this nasty knife, £650 cash and 110 wraps of suspected Class A drugs.
Great work from Islington officers who have searched an address with the assistance of @MPSFirearms where 21 potential firearms have been seized. One person has been arrested and is in custody whilst the investigation continues
After walking past a plain clothes officer with a joint in his mouth in the #CallyRoad area, a male was searched and found to be in possession of these items and will now be spending the night with us in custody #spaceforone
