TACKLING anti-social behaviour is among the top priorities for police in Burtonwood.

Cheshire Police has launched a crime crackdown in the area after complaints regarding anti-social behaviour at the rear of Kinnock Park.

Police are promising to tackle the issue and are committed to cleaning up anti-social behaviour in the areas where residents are most concerned.

The list of top priorities was set by Cheshire Police and is a result of speaking with residents in a bid to reduce crime.

Speeding on Phipps Lane and Chapel Lane in Burtonwood has been deemed a high priority in the area.

Police will also be keeping a close eye on James Abbey and Sons in Burtonwood following a spate of pallet thefts and will continue to monitor petrol thefts at the Gemini Retail Park.

Patrols will also be stepped up after a number of shed break-ins in Callands and Westbrook.
