Businesses hope police scheme can protect them from 'scary' anti-social behaviour in town

Shop owners say they hope a new police scheme can help solve anti-social behaviour from "scary" people in a Nottinghamshire town. There have been reported issues in Kirkby-in-Ashfield - and now police have created a new ‘Shop Watch’ scheme.

15 local shops in the town have signed up to the Business Crime Forum, Shop Watch, which was launched by Ashfield District Council and Nottinghamshire Police.

The new scheme involves new radio systems that link directly to the CCTV control room situated at Police Headquarters.
