Operation Shield is BACK!

As part of our efforts to tackle criminality across our area, Operation Shield is back for another intensification period this March. 

Our force-wide proactive initiative has today (Monday 3 March) relaunched to continue the focus on clamping down on crime in hotspot locations with the aim of identifying and targeting the most harmful criminals who prey on our communities.

Over the next four weeks, officers across our force area will be ramping up their work to detect criminals involved in a range of crimes, reduce serious acquisitive crime and antisocial behaviour, increase visibility in hotspot areas, disrupt and dismantle organised crime groups, reduce criminality on the roads, and protect the most vulnerable victims in our communities by targeting high-harm offenders and perpetrators of domestic abuse.

Across the Humberside region, the team will be carrying out warrants to proactively seek and arrest criminals. They will also be seizing illegal items, including drugs and weapons with the aim of disrupting, and dismantling organised crime groups that have links to violent crime, county lines and drug related offences. 

Leading the operation this March is Assistant Chief Constable Mike Walker, who said: “I am pleased to say that Operation Shield is recommencing to support our relentless pursuit of criminals who think they can commit crime in our force area and get away with it.

We would always encourage you to report any offences to us so we can build the bigger picture and take appropriate action.

You can provide information to the charity Crimestoppers completely anonymously on 0800 555111, or on their website www.crimestoppers.org.uk

Operation Snap 

Operation Snap is a secure online platform that allows you to submit video evidence of driving offences that you or other members of the public have witnessed. Its purpose is to improve road safety and to prosecute those that place others at risk. The service has been produced with the support of the Department for Transport.

The online service allows us to effectively deal with the footage recorded by members of the public in a safe and secure way, whilst making the investigation process simple and straightforward. We have a determined and robust approach to policing the roads and we’ll take every opportunity to make them safer for everyone.

This portal can only be used for driving offences, it is not for submitting footage of Road Traffic Collisions or public order offences, and is not for reporting crime.

It’s easy for people to engage in Operation Snap and processes have been designed to run smoothly. Operation Snap is not asking you to go out and detect offences for us, but we will deal with any you find.

Operation Snap has one desired outcome: making our roads safer.

For other crime reporting methods,  please see our main report it page.

In an emergency always dial 999 where there is a threat to life or a crime in progress, for non-emergencies dial 101.
