POLICE teams in Coventry have seized stolen vehicles and made arrests during a week of patrols.
The Radford and Holbrook neighbourhood team picked up a stolen motorbike, while officers from the city centre team recovered a van which was found to have had no tax for 12 months.
In the north west of the city, the Radford and Holbrook team seized two cars after their drivers were found to have no licence or insurance.
The team also recovered a Mercedes after it was reported stolen from Staffordshire.
Elsewhere, the city centre team carried out high-visibility patrols around the area, including in Lady Herbert Gardens, in response to community concerns over anti-social behaviour.
Officers also paid a visit to the schools in the area to engage with pupils and teachers with a safety talk and demonstration of police vehicles.
In the south of the city, the Binley and Willenhall team joined up with Speedwatch volunteers in response to reports of dangerous driving in Willenhall Lane.
A Coventry Police spokesperson said: “Every day, officers across Coventry take part in patrols and operations designed to keep you safe and respond to issues raised by the public.”
