Safer Neighbourhood Teams (SNTs) are made up of local Met police officers working closely with the Council, community leaders and residents to identify policing priorities in each ward across the borough.
On Saturday night (February 17), officers arrested a male on suspicion of possession of an offensive weapon and on suspicion of having no insurance.
