More than 400 hours of patrols were carried out by police in Eastbourne during a week-long crackdown on anti-social behaviour

Each day of the October half term, around a dozen officers from the Neighbourhood Policing Team (NPT) conducted targeted patrols in hotspot areas, visited vulnerable communities and took action against those committing road-related and drug-related crimes.
