Melton Rural South Monthly Beat Update – November 2025
Dear Resident Welcome to November’s Priority Update for the Melton Rural South Beat. Our beat priorities are decided from feedback from the community in the form of surveys through Neighbourhood Link and our crime incident reporting systems. Thank you to all those who have completed the Neighbourhood Link surveys. Our 3 main beat priorities continue to be: Road Safety Drug Taking Rural and Farming Equipment Thefts
PC Tranter and I feel it is important that we keep you as residents informed regarding the level and type of crime on the Melton Rural South beat and how it is being addressed which is why we post these monthly updates.
In November we once again saw a high number of Road Traffic Collisions (RTCs) and Road Related Incidents on the beat’s roads at 28. As always, our advice is please drive to the speed limit and the weather conditions.
Road traffic enforcement on the beat’s roads continues to be addressed with high visibility speed monitoring together with using both marked and unmarked police vehicles to stop vehicles. The number of criminal damage incidents in November has increased slightly from the previous months at 5, but the number of reported incidents of theft has reduced to 3. I am pleased to report that the number of reported burglaries on the Rural South has substantially reduced to 4. The beat team, supported by the Rural Crime Team will be increasing high visibility patrols across the beat in an attempt to deter any further incidents and reassure residents. Please ensure you keep your doors and windows locked and your outbuildings secured. PC Tranter and I will continue to spend as much time on the beat as possible, working longer shifts in an attempt to deter criminals on our area. As always PC Tranter and I are grateful for all your help, co-operation, and support. Thank you. PCSO French 6575 #yousaidwedid #inyourcommunity
