Retailers, police team up on crime
SHARE

In a collaborative effort to combat retail crime in Invercargill, police and retailers have joined forces. Over the past year and a half, the police prevention team in Invercargill has been actively engaging with retailers to build stronger relationships and offer valuable advice.

Chris Ramsay, the chief executive of the Invercargill Licensing Trust, noted a concerning uptick in antisocial behavior over the last 12 months, which has had a detrimental impact on both staff and customers. From intimidating behavior to physical assaults, the rise in incidents has prompted a call for action.

According to the Southland Business Confidence Survey, 38% of businesses reported being adversely affected by crime or antisocial behavior in the past year, indicating a growing concern among local businesses. This survey, conducted by the Southland Business Chamber, sheds light on the challenges faced by retailers in the region.

Inspector Mike Bowman, Southland area commander, emphasized the importance of collaboration between police and business owners to create a safer community. With an increased police presence in targeted areas and proactive measures in place, efforts are being made to address the root causes of crime.

One key aspect of the strategy is to enhance staff safety by providing guidance on store layout and the placement of security cameras to deter and detect criminal activities. Kelvin Mooney, Invercargill Central manager, highlighted the effectiveness of these preventive measures in curbing incidents.

Despite the challenges posed by antisocial behavior, the partnership between police and retailers has yielded positive outcomes for the community. By addressing underlying issues and implementing practical solutions, Invercargill is striving to create a safer and more welcoming environment for all.
