EXMOUTH'S Neighbourhood Policing Team has announced that it's hotspot police patrols will continue in Exmouth town centre into winter.
The police says its hotspot policing was 'really effective' in the town over the summer. The Neighbourhood Policing Team has received extra funding to extend the patrols into the wintertime towards Christmas.
A spokesman for Devon and Cornwall Police said: "From July to September, 424 additional hours of police foot patrols were delivered in Exmouth. These targeted patrols are carried out in overtime so that we’re going over and above our normal service delivery.
"We are continuing to work closely with the street marshals to share intelligence and engage with the community.
"When you see us out and about, please come and say hello."
