Custody officers at Telford's Malinsgate Police Station have dealt with 63 people who were arrested in just one week.
Officers say they have laid 23 charges after dealing with those arrested between midnight on Monday, February 26, and the same time on Monday, March 4.
PC Paul Brittain, a community safety engagement officer for South Telford, said the arrests covered offences including shoplifting, violence, sexual offences, possession of offensive weapons and driving matters.
He said: "This resulted in a total of 23 charges, to which those charged will now appear before the courts.
"Others have been put before the courts regarding suspicion of breaching court orders, court bail conditions and for failing to appear before magistrates to answer charges already put to them."
PC Brittain added that they have also dealt with a number of people who have been released on police bail to re-attend the police station at a later date plus some still in custody awaiting interview and also a number who have been released without charge.
