- how many incidents of reported anti-social behaviour were attended by the force and (c) how many arrests were carried out in relation to these? Any detail as to what these reports involved would be greatly appreciated.
No information held. Anti-Social behaviour is not in itself classed as a criminal offence and therefore there are no crimes. As it is not a criminal offence, there can be no arrests.
