Police teams had a "steady" but busy weekend in Wrexham, an Inspector has said.

Wrexham City Police Inspector Luke Hughes has shared details of his officers' activities over the last few days.

In total there were 157 calls for service from 6am on Friday to 6am on Monday.

Insp Hughes said these entailed "the usual mixture of criminal behaviour, anti-social behaviour and social welfare incidents."

He said: "At present I’m not picking up any trends to highlight.

"The weekend in Wrexham was rather steady. Our custody staff and patrol officers were kept busy and we had a number of arrests on Friday evening including a male recalled to prison, a female for causing issues in Brook street and a domestic assault.

"Saturday followed suit when three males were arrested for fighting in the town.

He added that as of Monday morning, a shoplifter remained in custody having been arrested on Sunday.

On his advice for what is expected to be a hot week, the Inspector added: "As stated in earlier updates, the sun doesn’t always bring the best out in people, or is that the copious amount of alcohol that sometimes gets mixed in?

"The sun also brings other risks for those less cautious; an insecure window or a door left open to get a bit of cool air can sometimes be very tempting for an opportunist burglar.

"Although at present numbers in Wrexham are low, but they do occasionally occur and they are without doubt one of the most unpleasant crimes to experience. 

"I don’t urge paranoia, but do take simple precautions.

"Of course the heat also can cause extra stress on the vulnerable and elderly, please keep an eye on loved ones, it’s been a tough few years and many remain isolated.

"If you notice something strange; milk bottles and post building up et cetera,  please give us a call.

"Finally, animals and children in hots cars are a terrifying combination. Don’t do it. Not even for five minutes with a window slightly open. The consequences can be sudden and tragic."
