Police are hailing operation Tirade as a success with three arrests of active offenders made in just one day. The three were arrested for a range of property and traffic offences.

The highly visible joint police operation in Ballan and Creswick late last week saw 5 arrest warrants issued, 160 vehicles checked and 134 drivers breath tested.

Police say Tirade's aim was to reassure the community and make them feel safe.
