St Austell Neighbourhood Team are working proactively to tackle illicit drug use and drug dealing within our communities. Working in partnership we are going to be targeting addresses and locations that evidence suggest are linked to drug use/dealing. The harm that drugs cause to our communities is unacceptable, please help us to address this issue. If you have any information that may assist us please report it to us via our website or via Crime Stoppers.
Over the past few months a number of warrants have now been executed which have had positive results including arrests and these investigations are ongoing. Patrols have also been increased in areas where we have reports of drug use.

The St Austell Neighbourhood Policing Team are committed to working with partner agencies and the community to tackle anti-social behaviour (ASB).
ASB is conduct that causes (or is likely to cause) harassment, alarm or distress to persons not of the same household of the offender.
The local team with support from the Police Drone Team conducted a recent operation to target those illegally riding dirt bikes, e-bikes and e-scooters. A number of vehicles were seized and the riders/ drivers reported for road traffic offences such as driving without insurance or the appropriate license.
We are aware of the publics' concerns of ASB, drug misuse and drinking in and around St Austell town centre. A joint response to this is being delivered by police and partners to robustly deal with those involved.
Please if you do witness an ASB incident, report it to us at the time it's taking place, this will provide us with the best opportunity to identify the persons concerned and take appropriate action with our partner agencies.
