A Nottingham property has been shut down after neighbours moved out because of the amount of drug-related crime taking place there. Nottinghamshire Police has secured a court order making it an offence to enter the property on Alfreton Road in Radford.
The exceptions to this rule will be the emergency services, landlord or authorised representatives. Nottinghamshire Police said the action follows several reports of drug use and anti-social behaviour at the address.
Sergeant Dan Griffin, from the neighbourhood policing team. said: "There has been a disproportionate number of incidents that have required police attendance at the address over the past few years. These incidents typically involve anti-social behaviour and drug-related activity and have caused other residents of the address to permanently move out and seek alternative homes.
