25.01.2022 reporting graffiti quickly is an effective deterrent.

23.01.2022 School's out so it's the perfect time to take the kids on a local holiday, even a quick day trip around your area. Looking at your town or suburb like a visito...r can lead to wonderful discoveries of new places to visit and things to try. Check out your local paper, city council website and travel websites for lots of recommendations from other travellers. Finding new places to eat, read, play and learn in your area will give you a whole new appreciation for where you live.

13.01.2022 The NSW Police Force will launch a large-scale operation to enforce the closure of the NSW/Victorian border tonight. The Public Health (COVID-19 NSW and Victori...an Border) Order 2020, under section 7 of the Public Health Act 2010, will be issued later today (Tuesday 7 July 2020). It will direct that from midnight (Wednesday 8 July 2020), no one can enter NSW from Victoria, unless they can fulfil specific exemption criteria. At present, the border is closed to those from Victorian ‘hotspot’ postcodes, with the entire greater Melbourne area now deemed a hotspot. As the scope widens and the border closes entirely, NSW Police Commissioner Mick Fuller has appointed Assistant Commissioner Scott Whyte as Operation Commander, to lead approximately 650 police officers in support of local police. The high-visibility operation will include General Duties officers from across NSW, as well as Traffic and Highway Patrol Command, and other specialist units, such as the Rescue and Bomb Disposal Unit. Police will also be assisted by the Australian Defence Force with 350 personnel to be deployed from Thursday (9 July 2020). Assistance will also be provided by other government agencies; including Transport For NSW, and NSW National Parks as required. NSW Police Commissioner Mick Fuller said that as always, safety remains the top priority. The aim of this operation is to keep NSW safe the broader NSW community, as well as NSW Police officers and operation support personnel, the Commissioner said. I know this closure will inconvenience many on both sides of the border, but the dangers and flow-on effects that accompany a second wave of COVID-19 are not something we want to see for our state. We have engaged with Local Members of Parliament and the Mayors of Albury and Wodonga to ensure local communities understand how the Public Health Orders impact on them and so we can work together to minimise disruptions to everyday lives. We anticipate the first 72 hours will be challenging, so we ask the community to be patient and work with us. Importantly, if you don’t need to cross the border, don’t, Commissioner Fuller said. There are 54 border crossings within five Police Districts across two Police Regions (Southern and Western), which will require both static and mobile policing strategies. Of the 54 crossings, 34 have been prioritised into three categories (A, B, C) depending on the traffic flow, location and characteristics, while the remining 20 crossings are tracks and trails. The six category ‘A’ locations which are the main crossings are: Wodonga Place, South Albury Hume Hwy, South Albury Cobb Hwy, Moama Newell Hwy, Tocumwal Sturt Hwy, Buronga Princes Hwy, Tambillica Police will also continue to assist NSW Health at Sydney Airport and regional airports with the screening of passengers arriving from Victoria, who have exemptions under the Public Health Act. Travellers who are departing from or arriving at airports in NSW are urged to adhere to the directions of airline staff, airport security, and NSW Health practitioners/officers. The Public Health Act 2010 (NSW) provides police with the power to enforce Public Helath Orders. It is an offence for a person to fail to comply with an order, and severe penalties apply, which include a maximum penalty of up to $11,000 and/or six months imprisonment for individuals. The standard penalty will be a $1000 fine by way of a Penalty Infringement Notice (PIN). Anyone wishing to travel into NSW will need to apply for an exemption online via Service NSW. It is an offence to provide false information when applying for exemptions. A substainal fine applies. Police continue to appeal to the community to report suspected breaches of any ministerial direction or behaviour which may impact on the health and safety of the community. Anyone who has information regarding individuals or businesses in contravention of a COVID-19-related ministerial direction is urged to contact Crime Stoppers: https://nsw.crimestoppers.com.au. Information is treated in strict confidence. The public is reminded not to report crime via NSW Police social media pages.

10.01.2022 Burglaries happen. We can't always stop them, but we can make it easier for the police to recover our stolen property and make it less attractive for thieves to... steal our valuables in the first place. Identify your items with your driver's licence number (or similar) using an engraving tool or a UV pen. Items that can't easily be marked in this way, e.g. jewellery, antiques and artwork, should be photographed. Store the photographs in a safe place with your other important documents. Alternatively, you can do a video walkthrough of your home, making sure to capture anything of value and store the video file in a safe place.

06.01.2022 Police are urging travellers planning to cross the NSW/Queensland border tomorrow to expect significant delays on our roads when the border re-opens. The Queens...land Government has announced that the NSW/Queensland border will re-open to NSW residents from 12pm midday tomorrow (Friday 10 July 2020), with travellers requiring a Border Declaration Pass to enter the state. With the change in entry conditions, the NSW Police Force is working closely with the Queensland Police Service and are urging motorists to be ready to provide all relevant documentation and identification at checkpoints to assist with reducing delays. With thousands of motorists expected to be travelling into and through the Far North Coast region, Tweed/Byron Police Commander, Superintendent Dave Roptell, is pleading with drivers to be patient and prepared for a heavily delayed journey. If you are choosing to cross the border in the next 72-hours, please be aware we anticipate there will be extensive delays at the major checkpoints these delays could be more than a couple of hours, with queues potentially up to 20km long. We are working with our counterparts over the border to ensure as smooth a transition to the new border pass system as possible, but we understand this will take time to work through. If you do not need to cross the border on Friday, we are asking you to delay your travel for a couple of days to allow for the large influx of traffic to flow through the checkpoints. If you do decide to cross the border, make sure you are well prepared have some snacks and water in the car, stop off at a rest stop or coastal town for a pit stop and bathroom break before piling into the car. It will be a long journey, so we are asking drivers to please be patient. Always drive to the conditions, don’t speed to try and get to your destination sooner, don’t have any distractions around you while behind the wheel, and as always do not drink or drug drive, Supt Roptell said. Tweed/Byron police are also reminding holidaymakers coming to popular tourist destinations such as Byron Bay, Bangalow, Ballina and Suffolk Park to adhere to social distancing guidelines and follow current NSW Public Health Orders. We are not out of the danger zone yet, Supt Roptell said. With thousands of NSW residents now able to travel across the state, we are seeing a massive influx of visitors to our popular coastal spots. Police are continuing to conduct high-visibility patrols in and around the busy strips and ensuring locals and tourists alike are following the current rules. Public gathering restrictions, restaurant, café and pub limits and the 4sqm rule are still in place and of course, if you have any symptoms, go and get tested, Supt Roptell said. To see the most up-to-date traffic conditions, visit https://bddy.me/3gD2mR8. To apply for a Queensland Border Declaration Pass, visit https://bddy.me/3iG3zJg. Queensland Border Declaration Passes need to be renewed every seven days.

01.01.2022 Five men have been charged as part of investigations into an alleged large-scale drug supply operation in the state’s south west. In April 2020, Strike Force Te...rraview was established by Murrumbidgee Police District to investigate the supply of prohibited drugs, namely cocaine, in the Griffith, Leeton and Narrandera area. Following extensive investigations, strike force detectives arrested five men over their alleged involvement in the supply of cocaine throughout the region. The police operation began shortly after midday yesterday (Thursday 16 July 2020), with the arrest of a 24-year-old man during an alleged drug transaction on Kidman Way, Griffith. The Narrandera man was taken to Griffith Police Station and charged with supply prohibited drug (commercial quantity), six counts of supply prohibited drug and two counts of ongoing supply. He was refused bail and is due to face Griffith Local Court today (Friday 17 July 2020). Shortly after the arrest, Strike Force Terraview investigators executed two search warrants at homes in Griffith and Narrandera, during which a further four men aged 19, 20, 26 and 27 were arrested. All of the men were taken to Griffith Police Station. During the searches, police seized several items including cocaine, methylamphetamine, cannabis, cash, firearms and imitation firearms. These items will undergo forensic analysis. A 20-year-old Hanwood man was charged with five counts of supply prohibited drug. A 27-year-old Leeton man was charged with four counts of supply prohibited drug. The pair was refused bail and are due to appear before Griffith Local Court today (Friday 17 July 2020). A 19-year-old Leeton man was charged with three counts of supply prohibited drug. He was granted conditional bail and is due to face Leeton Local Court on Tuesday 21 July 2020. A 26-year-old Griffith man was charged with four counts of possess prohibited firearm, four counts of not keep firearm safely and possess prohibited drug. He was granted conditional bail and is due to face Griffith Local Court on Wednesday 26 August 2020. Murrumbidgee Police District Crime Manager, Detective Inspector Eugene Stek, said the arrests are the culmination of excellent work by local police. The hard work and dedication of our officers has led to the arrest of five people for drug offences, Det Insp Stek said. The supply of drugs in regional towns has a major impact on the community, and it simply won’t be tolerated. We will continue to target those engaging in the supply of illegal drugs, and rest assured anyone who engages in these activities will face the full brunt of the law. If anyone in the community has any information about the supply of illegal drugs, I would like to urge them to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or local police, Det Insp Stek said. Inquiries are continuing.
