"From the information I've been given, West Yorkshire Police (WYP) are already aware of the property but I will contact the local Inspector and and the Leeds Antisocial Behaviour Team to find out where we are in the process of dealing with the property.”

Anyone with information is being encouraged to contact West Yorkshire Police on their 101 non-emergency incident line or via their website.

“The level of information needed to acquire a Closure Order is quite significant, so it is really important that residents do report any issues of criminality that they see.” Coun Wray added.
