Police patrol in crime crackdown
Dozens of police officers will be out on Norfolk's streets on Thursday as part of Operation Harrier.

The "high visibility" presence is in order to reassure the public and make themselves more accessible.

Civilian police staff along with members of the Major Investigation Team and Mobile Support Unit will be out in force.

The latest crackdown will also include the retrieval of stolen goods and issuing a number of arrest warrants.

Chief Constable Andy Hayman said: "My officers and staff will once again be taking the Harrier message to the people of Norfolk."

Since Operation Harrier began on 28 April 2003, police have taken part in early-morning raids across the county, arresting people for offences from drug possession to handling stolen goods and perverting the course of justice.
