Police Boost Patrols Amid Rising Community Worries
Chief Superintendent Simon Crick, head of the North Area Command Unit, expressed his sadness over the “senseless killing” in Haringey.
“Once again, family and friends must endure the trauma of losing a loved one. Though this case differs from other recent incidents, it offers little comfort to those affected,” he said.
“We understand the anxiety this causes. We have increased police patrols across the area. These are your officers—please talk to them if you have any concerns.”
“I’ll be meeting with community leaders and partners to outline our action plan and to listen to the concerns of local residents. Only by working together can we end this wave of violence.”
