In response to a spate of distraction burglaries of elderly victims, Hounslow Burglary squad arrested and charged two people with 11 counts of burglary and over 20 offences.

A man from Hounslow with a long history of anti-social behaviour was given a post conviction ASBO lasting three years. The ASBO forbids him from carrying open vessels containing alcohol and entering betting shops and minicab offices in Hounslow.
