PCSO Jamie Sanderson said: “We understand that anti-social behaviour can leave people feeling intimidated, angry and frightened, and we take it seriously.

“For this reason, we have increased local patrols where possible.

“If you see any anti-social behaviour please report it to us via 999, 101, or sussex.police.uk/contact-us/report-online.

“The information we receive from people plays a huge part in enabling us to catch criminals, therefore making Shoreham a safer place to live.

“No information given is ignored as we use it to develop the bigger picture and when the time is right we will take action.”

An Adur District Council spokesperson said: “Street briefings are sometimes held by Sussex Police to give the community the opportunity to engage with local officers and share any concerns they have about crime or anti-social behaviour in the area.

“We work closely in partnership with the Adur and Worthing neighbourhood policing team and will be attending to promote ways to report anti-social behaviour directly to the council and collect information from local residents that will enable us to understand the issues and identify any measures that the council can take.”
