Brixworth and Moulton

The new priorities for this period (April 2026 to September 2026) are:
• Rural crime
• Road safety and road traffic offences
• Drug dealing and drug misuse

Our priorities are set for a six month period and reviewed every three months to ensure we continue to deal with what matters most to local people, taking account of feedback shared in our local priorities survey and local crime data.

Here's an update on our work to tackle local priorities from April to June 2026:

Road safety and road traffic offences
• Officers from the Daventry neighbourhood policing team stopped a man riding an electric bike in Daventry town centre. The bike was not road legal, and was capable of reaching speeds of over 25mph. He was reported for summons for relevant traffic offences.
• A SORN (Statutory Off Road Notification) vehicle parked on a public road was recovered in Chapel Brampton.

Drug dealing and drug misuse
• We have continued to develop intelligence around drug dealing locations across the area covered by the Daventry neighbourhood policing team.
• A Misuse of Drugs Act Warrant was executed at a caravan on Golding Close in Daventry. A man was arrested and subsequently charged with a drug possession offence.
• Multiple stop and searches across the area have resulted in cannabis being seized from individuals. Outcomes have ranges from referrals to the Immediate Justice Scheme through to charges and summons to court.

Rural Crime
• The Rural Crime Team continues to work across borders with Warwickshire Police, and has recovered a large amount of stolen plant machinery.
• A prolific livestock worrying offender responsible for numerous incidents in the Daventry area was dealt with by the courts and issued a substantial fine and costs.
