Two men have been sentenced after a man was robbed of his luxury watch on a train to Southend.   Swift, effective police work led to their arrest near Leigh-on-Sea immediately after the incident. 💪 btp.police.uk/news/btp/news/…

At a revenue operation at Highbury & Islington this week officers stopped a man without a valid ticket. He was then found to be wanted for another matter. Upon arrest he became aggressive and was taken into custody. Fare evasion and abusive behaviour will not be tolerated.

We responded to a report on Friday from rail staff in Cogan of a man sexually assaulting a 16-year-old.   Officers quickly attended and arrested the man, before taking the victim home.   This behaviour is unacceptable, and we will not stand for it. 🚨
