Anti-social behaviour is on the decline in North Wales, policing boss says

Anti-social behaviour in North Wales is on the downturn, says the area's police and crime commissioner after visiting towns across the region. A report to the North Wales Police and Crime Panel backed the claims and was presented to members at a meeting at Conwy 's Coed Pella HQ. The report from North Wales Police and Crime Commissioner Andy Dunbobbin says anti-social behaviour (ASB) is down by 4.6% from last year, whilst police attendance at incidents had increased by 5%. Earlier this year, Mr Dunbobbin attended a Llandudno residents' meeting organised by Aberconwy MS Janet Finch-Saunders after a spate of vandalism in the resort. Gangs of youths had been accused of smashing up shelters on the promenade, stealing from hotels, and vandalising Venue Cymru. Mrs Finch-Saunders and Mr Dunbobbin later rowed, disputing crime figures in the town, with the commissioner complaining about Mrs Finch-Saunders instructing residents to log incidents with her office.

But presenting to the panel, Mr Dunbobbin explained he had attended a Home Office briefing in May on keeping town centres safe as part of a neighbourhood policing campaign. He also revealed he'd visited towns across North Wales, including Llandudno. 'Over the last six months, I have been proactive in engaging with local communities to listen to concerns affecting them around ASB, including visits to Prestatyn, Llandudno, Llangefni, and Buckley,' said Mr Dunbobbin. 'In addition, I have also been out on patrol with officers in Holyhead and Deeside to understand how local police teams are tackling ASB and also joined a sergeant on patrol in Rhyl, during ASB Awareness week, to look at how they are implementing the Clear Hold Build approach to tackling ASB and low-level crime there.' He added: 'Analysis of ASB shows that incidents have reduced by 4.6% this year across North Wales compared to last year; low level behaviours continue to account for most events. Although recorded incidents have reduced, attendance has increased by 5%, and I hope this shows the level of policing commitment to victims of ASB.' The commissioner also revealed he had visited Rhosmeirch, Anglesey, in February, where police had put in place a 'community alert messaging system'. The crime commissioner's report also detailed £92,080.94 – increasing to £200K in 2025/26 – to fund various community schemes aimed at reducing anti-social behaviour, including the relaunch of a 'Summer Sports' project for young people during school holidays.

Did Shedeur Sanders get drafted? Live updates for Day 3 on Colorado QB's landing spot

Did Shedeur Sanders get drafted? Live updates for Day 3 on Colorado QB's landing spot Show Caption Hide Caption NFL Draft: Sanders falls out of Round 1, Jags take Travis Hunter at No. 2 USA TODAY Sports' Mackenzie Salmon breaks down the biggest storylines from Round 1 of the 2025 NFL Draft. Sports Pulse The Sanders family is on the cusp of adding to its NFL legacy as Shedeur Sanders prepares to be selected in the 2025 NFL Draft. The Colorado Buffaloes quarterback, and son of Deion Sanders, has seen his draft stock resemble a roller coaster ride for months. Despite this, many believed Sanders would be a top pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. He received first-round buzz and was viewed as a likely early Day 2 selection if he slipped out of the first round. Instead, Sanders was not chosen in the first three rounds of the draft. Now, Sanders' camp and NFL fans alike are eagerly awaiting his selection as they look to see which NFL team will take him. Opinions of Sanders differ depending on whom you ask. Some believe he's the best quarterback in the class. Others feel it's only a matter of time until he's declared a draft bust. Then there are those that center the evaluation on personality, which ranges from a class act to an entitled, arrogant individual. We'll eventually learn which side of the argument was correct or whether the answer was somewhere in the middle, but Sanders' draft journey has been anything but conventional. Here's a look at Sanders' draft status and which NFL team he'll be taking his talents to if and when he is selected. Did Shedeur Sanders get drafted? Sanders has not yet been drafted entering Day 3 of the 2025 NFL Draft. All eyes will be on him as he hopes to make his NFL draft come true over the draft's final 155 selections. The Colorado quarterback was expected to be chosen on Day 2 after slipping out of the draft's first round. That never came to fruition, as he was not among the five quarterbacks – Cam Ward, Jaxson Dart, Tyler Shough, Jalen Milroe and Dillon Gabriel – chosen within the draft's first 102 picks. Sanders was initially considered a top pick in the draft before dropping out of the first round. The Pittsburgh Steelers, considered to be his most likely landing spot, passed on the Colorado quarterback multiple times over the first two days. The Cleveland Browns, another popular mock draft destination for Sanders, opted to take Gabriel at the end of the third round. ESPN's Adam Schefter said on Friday that he believed Sanders' floor was No. 83 with the Steelers. Instead, now he's in danger of not being drafted at all. It's a shocking situation for a quarterback that was once believed to be in the same class as Ward. All the NFL news on and off the field. Sign up for USA TODAY's 4th and Monday newsletter.
