Police praised by store bosses after shoplifters brought to justice

We are working hard to tackle retail crime, help victims and bring offenders to justice by utilising new technology. And the effort is paying off with praise from a major High Street chain.

Bosses at Boots say they are impressed by officers who investigated a spate of high value thefts in their stores. And it’s just one of the fantastic results that the Force has managed to secure thanks to the Auror and UK Partners Against Crime (UK-PAC) platforms.

Police teams are already making a difference thanks to new systems in place which allow shops to share information directly with officers and each other.  Police want to spread the word that shoplifters are not welcome in our towns and cities and are urging retail staff to report incidents when they happen.
