Twenty-five people arrested in Eastbourne this week for stalking, burglary and common assault

A spokesperson for Eastbourne Police said, “As we head into the weekend, the safety and welfare of our local communities remains our top priority.

“Over 25 arrests have already been made in the last week across the Eastbourne district, for various offences including stalking, common assault, ABH, burglary, wanted on warrant, and drug driving.

“If you see or hear anything we need to know about over the weekend, let us know.”

If your call is not urgent and can be reported through 101 or the website services, police ask you to do so in order to release pressure on their emergency lines and resources.

The police’s online services offer the option to self-report, which will be then be prioritised and actioned.

All emergencies, crime in action, or where there is a threat to life, always call 999.
