Our current force focus "A Matter of Priority" puts a spotlight on the four crime types which we will give special attention to in the next 12 months –

  • Serious and Organised Crime,

  • Knife Crime,

  • Domestic Abuse and

  • Anti-Social Behaviour.

We use social media (Twitter: @SthNorthantsNPT and Facebook: 'Daventry and South Northants Neighbourhood Policing Team') and Neighbourhood Alert in order to inform you about crime and incidents relevant to your area and some of the work that the team undertake – Please see recent updates on catalytic convertor thefts and recovery of stolen property. Unfortunately there are a lot of aspects of our work that we cannot report on due to the vulnerabilities of the persons involved. You can also follow the work of our Rural Crime Team via Twitter: @hutch472 & @NorPolRural
