Wem's safer neighbourhood team went on patrol to provide residents with some crime fighting visibility, officers said on Monday .

PCSO Oliver Morris, of the policing team in Wem, said: "One vehicle was stopped for anti-social driving around the primary school and another vehicle was stopped due to (the driver) being on their mobile phone.

"Drivers who are caught using their mobile phone can face a penalty of six points and a £200 fine."

PCSO Morris added that anyone who has any concerns and didn't get chance to speak to officers should contact the local safer neighbourhood team.
