Summary
Wester Hailes police went full throttle this week, deploying drones, motorcycle units, and even dogs to tackle antisocial behavior and rogue e-bikes. A 24-year-old was arrested for assault and drugs, with an illegal e-bike seized—its owner still at large. Reports of speeding e-bikes in Sighthill Park led to stops and charges in Murrayburn. Meanwhile, a stolen car was found abandoned on Longstone Crescent. Sergeant Will Dixon stressed the community impact of such behavior and called on residents to report anything suspicious—police are serious about keeping neighborhoods safe and want your help.
