"Frequent" reports of anti-social behaviour sees police close Huntingdon home
A three-month closure order has been placed on a Huntingdon home following concerns of anti-social behaviour.
Cambridge Magistrates’ Court issued the order closing 9 Brookland Terrace in Sayer Street following an application from Cambridgeshire Constabulary.
A force spokesperson said: “The action came as a result of frequent reports of anti-social behaviour coming from the property.
“A closure order was granted and the property will be closed for three months.”
PC Janine Hagger from the Prevention, Custody and Partnerships Team, added: “Residents living in the surrounding area have endured significantly concerning anti-social behaviour. The closure order will prevent the tenants and those who have been attending committing any anti-social behaviour.”
The closure order states that the property be fully closed in accordance with the Anti-Social Behaviour Act 2014. No one is permitted to enter except emergency services and the landlord until 11 August.
If anyone is found on either premises unlawfully, they render themselves liable for arrest.
Residents are urged to report anti-social behaviour online or via 101. It can also be reported to Crimestoppers, anonymously on 0800 555111.
