THERE has been a rise in anti-social behaviour in a Worcester estate.

Police have seen increased anti-social behaviour (ASB) reports on Medway Road in Ronkswood.

Nunnery and Battenhall SNT have now increased their patrols in the area to tackle the crime.

It has also led police to urge residents to keep reporting the crime when they come across it so they can act.

A spokesperson for West Mercia Police said: "We are working hard to tackle ASB in the Medway estate by intervening with the perpetrators and by conducting regular patrols of the hotspot areas.

"You can also contact us, your local Safer Neighbourhood Team, directly at BN.SNT@westmercia.police.uk if you have any information or evidence, such as video footage of ASB taking place."
