Stop drug dealing in Cambridge Heath area
Please stop drug dealing, we need cctv! We dont feel safe
Drug dealers have taken over the Cambridge heath area and are taking advantage of the areas under the overground to sell and force vulnerable people to consume class 1 Drugs.
The area is becoming more and more dangerous, especially in hare row and surroundings where dealers harass and aggress women and local residents, including elderly and children (Knife aggressions and even sex in public space have been reported). his comes together with an increase in thievery and breaks in flats in the area, in particular around the oval.
Residents demand the council to attend our calls and install CCTV in the area to prevent the dealing and consumption of class 1 drugs, and guarantee people safety! We have had no response for years and cannot continue living with fear!
