“I would like to thank the local community of Emmer Green for their co-operation and support.
“There has been a large number of officers in the local area whilst a thorough investigation is carried out and I appreciate the disruption and concern that this may have caused.
“Without your support it would be very difficult for officers to carry out their work and so I am extremely grateful for your continued patience.
“Officers continue to carry out reassurance patrols in the local area and I would encourage anyone to approach and speak to them if they have any concerns.”
