A new Government website that enables everyone to check crime levels in their neighbourhood has revealed the Pembrokeshire's crime hotspots.

South Pembrokeshire MP Simon Hart has welcomed the transparency in policing that the new website brings.

Latest figures from www.police.uk shows that there were 111 crimes in total in Pembroke Dock in January, with 70 of them incidents of anti-social behaviour and 9 related to violent crime.

This compares to 136 total crimes in the community December with 86 for anti-social behaviour and 14 for violent crime.

"It is interesting to note that December's crime levels in Pembroke Dock were classified "above average" compared to the rest of England and Wales but I see that they dropped back down to "average" in January," said Mr Hart.

"I think it's good news that people can now find out if crime is taking place on their street corner. It gives people greater knowledge and means they can hold their police force to account."

In other parts of the county Pembroke had 60 crimes in total in January, Tenby had 52 and Narberth just 19.

The website also contains details of how to get involved in helping the police at a local level by joining a PACT (Police and Communities Together) meeting and how to report crimes.
