Freedom of Information request 1817-18

I would like to know how many arrests have been made at United home games between July 2nd 2015 and December 22nd 2018 (inclusive).

To be clear, by 'at West Ham United home games' I mean:

• arrests made at any location within a 1 mile radius of the Boleyn Ground on days on which West Ham United played home games, up to 4 hours before and 4 hours after each game, between July 2nd 2015 and May 10th 2016 (inclusive).

• arrests made at any location within a 1 mile radius of the Stadium on days on which West Ham United have played home games, up to 4 hours before and 4 hours after each game, between August 4th 2016 and December 22nd 2018 (inclusive).

I am referring specifically to the West Ham United men's first team, and 'home games' should encompass all competitions, including friendlies.

I would like the information listed by date and - if possible - type of offence

I do not need to know any other details of the games (e.g. West Ham's opponents, the time at which the game kicked off).

For the dates mentioned at the Boleyn Ground, the stations in question would be Upton Park, Plaistow, and .

For the dates mentioned at the , the station in question would be Stratford / Stratford International.
