Criminal Behaviour
Criminal behaviour can include things like damage to property, threats, verbal abuse, violence, burglary, fraud, or vehicle-related offences. These actions are serious and usually break the terms of a tenancy, which means Trident may take enforcement action.
If you think a crime has happened, report it to the police by calling 999 in an emergency or 101 in a non-emergency. You can also use the police website or contact Crimestoppers. After reporting it, please let Trident know so we can understand the situation and look at what action we can take.
