Police conduct "Mischief Night" campaign

HOLDERNESS NEIGHBOURHOOD POLICING TEAMS are conducting a campaign within the area to highlight the problems caused over the period leading up to - and directly after - "Mischief Night" traditionally 'celebrated' on 4th November.

The campaign, under the heading “Your Mischief Their Misery” will run until 7th November and will comprise the following elements: 

1. A poster and leaflet campaign throughout the South East, South West and Mid Holderness area highlighting this problem. 

2. High visibility patrols in the areas where problems have occurred. 

3. Visits by the Neighbourhood Policing Team to retailers of eggs and flour to discourage sales to children and young people over this period.
