West Yorkshire Police say multiple arrests were made and vehicles seized during an operation in Huddersfield over the weekend.
On Friday evening (21 September) and into the early hours of Saturday morning, Kirklees District Police together with partner agencies visited a number of licenced premises and patrolled the streets and roads of Huddersfield.
As part of the campaign 40 taxis (Hackney and private hire) were checked and resulted in nine immediate licence suspensions, a lorry was recovered with £60,000 worth of machinery that had recently been reported stolen and three people were arrested for immigration offences.
PC Steve Nicholls, who led the operation, said: “The night-time economy is a crucial part of Huddersfield – both to residents, students and visitors and we want to ensure that everyone can enjoy what Huddersfield has to offer and feel safe.
"This particular enforcement campaign has been a real success and it has been fantastic to have so many partner agencies on board to work and support us.
“The purpose of these enforcement operations is to identify, disrupt and prevent any criminal activity and provide reassurance to the residents of Huddersfield that we always take a proactive approach to keeping people safe.”
