Romford Town Centre Live Facial Recognition Operation Results In Six Arrests.

Havering local town centre and neighbourhood officers took part in a Live Facial recognition operation this week in Romford town centre. 

 The initiative resulted in six arrests for various offences including burglary, robbery and assault on an emergency worker. 

This technology helps keep Londoners safe and will continue to be used to find people who threaten and cause harm to others and those who have outstanding arrest warrants issued by the courts. 

 Havering’s Safer neighbourhood Superintendent Simon Hutchison said:

“Our teams are working tirelessly to remove high harm offenders from our streets. With the help of modern technology, we are committed to deterring criminals from coming into the town and will have no hesitation in arresting individuals and putting them in front if the courts. We will continue to strive to make Havering a safer place to live, work and visit.”
