Under the Freedom of Information Act 2000, I would like to request the following:
The total number of reported needle spiking incidents received by your force from 1 January 2020 to the date of this request.
If possible, please provide a yearly breakdown for:
2020
2021
2022
2023
2024
2025 to date
This request is for the number of reports received by the force in relation to spiking via injection. "Spiking via injection" is defined as any incident in which someone is injected with drugs without their consent-also referred to as "needle spiking".
I am only requesting basic figures and not case details, to keep this request simple.
Please provide the information in any readily available format.
