:00:00. > :00:07.Good morning, it's Wednesday, we're live and waiting for your calls.
:00:08. > :00:13.We're travelling the UK asking for your help to solve crime.
:00:14. > :00:17.Today - a student's worst fears realised when she's followed home
:00:18. > :00:23.I have never had anyone look at me the way he did.
:00:24. > :00:26.The best way I could describe it was like an animal looking at a piece
:00:27. > :00:32.And keeping drunks out of the cells and hospitals - a joint police
:00:33. > :00:37.I'm a bit concerned now in case he walks around the corner
:00:38. > :01:02.We're visiting the length and breadth of the UK tackling
:01:03. > :01:24.A family who fled the Taliban only to be targeted by arsonists in the
:01:25. > :01:32.UK. My wife woke up, if not she might not be here today. The men who
:01:33. > :01:38.pretended to be police officers to get into a pensioner's home. I
:01:39. > :01:59.opened the door because I thought it was the police. It was this horrible
:02:00. > :02:04.man. It is meant to be my home, you're safe place. Alex was still
:02:05. > :02:12.settling into student life in Cardiff when an incident after a
:02:13. > :02:18.night out left her extremely shaken. At 1:30am she walked the familiar
:02:19. > :02:22.route back to her halls of residence after visiting a friend. Just three
:02:23. > :02:29.minutes from home she became aware and man was watching her. I saw a
:02:30. > :02:36.man go into a dip in the wall. It set a nerve of, didn't feel right.
:02:37. > :02:43.As soon as I walked past, he started following me. The first thing I
:02:44. > :02:47.thought, it was just me. It is late and I scared myself. Then I started
:02:48. > :02:52.dropping back to let him walk in front. He kept walking further
:02:53. > :02:58.behind me, so I was aware he was definitely following me. Her house
:02:59. > :03:03.was just around the corner and she thought she would be safe if she
:03:04. > :03:09.could get there quickly, but she was feeling more and more uneasy. I was
:03:10. > :03:16.not sure if he wanted to take my bag, or what he was going to do,
:03:17. > :03:19.really. As I got to the other side of the bridge just by my student
:03:20. > :03:26.halls, I heard him running under the bridge behind me. It was like a
:03:27. > :03:35.scene from a horror film. I thought, this cannot be real. I got to my
:03:36. > :03:40.halls and luckily got inside. But as Alex let herself in with a key card,
:03:41. > :03:44.another student held the door open for the stranger. As they waited for
:03:45. > :03:53.the lift, another student arrived and got in with them. The other guy
:03:54. > :03:59.got off on a couple of levels earlier. There was a couple of
:04:00. > :04:03.floors where it was just me and him and it was the hardest. It was so
:04:04. > :04:09.difficult because I did not know what he wanted. I did not know what
:04:10. > :04:14.he was planning to do. Alex and the stranger both got out on her floor
:04:15. > :04:21.and the man pretended to head for another flat. But as she opened the
:04:22. > :04:27.door, her worst fears were realised. I had my back turned to him and I
:04:28. > :04:35.had a cold shiver down my spine. My instincts told me it wasn't right. I
:04:36. > :04:41.saw him lunge at the door. He was grabbing my jumper and trying to
:04:42. > :04:48.pull me out. I had his arm trapped in the door. I have never had anyone
:04:49. > :04:52.look at me like he did. It was like an animal looking at a piece of
:04:53. > :05:02.meat. A surge of adrenaline must have pumped through me and I closed
:05:03. > :05:09.it completely on his arm. I just kind of stood up against the door.
:05:10. > :05:15.Completely blank for a minute. It could have been so much worse. I am
:05:16. > :05:19.grateful it wasn't. Alex's flatmate was oblivious to what was happening
:05:20. > :05:25.just outside her door. I heard a noise and I thought it was just them
:05:26. > :05:31.coming back being loud and drunk. I opened my door and she was crying
:05:32. > :05:34.and shaking. Together they went down to tell security what happened.
:05:35. > :05:53.Seeing the stranger captured on CCTV, Alex dialled 999.
:05:54. > :06:01.This is extremely serious and we wish to identify this person and
:06:02. > :06:06.speak to him prompts --. It does appear it was sexually motivated. It
:06:07. > :06:10.must have been a traumatic incident and well done to Alex for fighting
:06:11. > :06:15.back against him. I did not want to be on my own for a while. I could
:06:16. > :06:19.not focus on anything and my head was all over the place. No one
:06:20. > :06:28.should feel that small, pathetic or threatened. And we are with South
:06:29. > :06:33.Wales Police today in Cardiff. Detective on is to Darren Roberts is
:06:34. > :06:36.leading this investigation. Clear CCTV in this case, somebody should
:06:37. > :06:45.know this man? It is extremely clear, it shows this man following
:06:46. > :06:50.Alex back. The quality of the CCTV is extremely good. The film captures
:06:51. > :06:57.him at various points in the building, including the lift?
:06:58. > :07:03.Correct. Very good CCTV and a good facial, which is unusual. Alex was
:07:04. > :07:08.quick thinking, used her adrenaline and managed to close the door on her
:07:09. > :07:14.attacker and trapping his arm, so presumably he was injured? I presume
:07:15. > :07:18.so, it was quite a heavy fire door. And the force Alex described using
:07:19. > :07:24.on his arm should have resulted in a number of injuries. Alex was walking
:07:25. > :07:30.home from a night out as so many students do, there is a new safety
:07:31. > :07:37.advice? Common-sense, keep to well lit areas, walk confidently. There
:07:38. > :07:42.are also devices available, applications and smartphones. How
:07:43. > :07:51.does this new application work? If you are concerned for your safety,
:07:52. > :07:59.if you shake your smartphone it will alert family and friends of your
:08:00. > :08:10.exact location. That is good advice. I will just show people this. This
:08:11. > :08:15.is the personal safety device we have talked about in the past.
:08:16. > :08:17.Good advice there. Now it's time to have a look at today's Wanted Faces.
:08:18. > :08:27.And we start with this man, police believe he's called Henry Akhigbe
:08:28. > :08:28.question the 30-year-old in connection with a serious sexual
:08:29. > :08:28.Detectives in Manchester want to question
:08:29. > :08:32.the 30-year-old in connection with a serious sexual offence against
:08:33. > :08:36.He has connections to the Oldham area and Nigeria,
:08:37. > :08:40.Oldham, Manchester and Stockport but has links to Hull, Scunthorpe,
:08:41. > :08:42.Sussex Police want to question the 37-year-old
:08:43. > :08:45.in connection with a robbery in which a man was struck over the
:08:46. > :08:49.Charlton has connections to Oldham, Manchester and Stockport
:08:50. > :08:53.but has links to Hull, Scunthorpe, Cumbria and London.
:08:54. > :08:58.Officers from the Met Police want to question him in connection with
:08:59. > :09:01.a road accident in which a man was injured and later died.
:09:02. > :09:06.Originally from Ghana, 45-year-old Kusi has links to South London.
:09:07. > :09:16.He also has a scar beneath his left eye.
:09:17. > :09:27.If you recognise any of these, pick up the phone and call others. --
:09:28. > :09:46.call others. Emergency crews dedicate themselves
:09:47. > :09:51.to helping others but sometimes they find themselves under attack from
:09:52. > :09:55.the people they are trying to head. We have the fire crime unit at South
:09:56. > :10:00.Wales Fire and rescue. Tell us some of the problems because we had some
:10:01. > :10:08.CCTV footage that shows it in action? This CCTV footage to place
:10:09. > :10:14.on November the 5th last year. The youth in question verbally abused
:10:15. > :10:19.others. He laid down in front of one of the fire appliances preventing
:10:20. > :10:28.the crews from getting to a scene. Any delays could prove fatal.
:10:29. > :10:33.Shocking, stopping you getting to where you needed to go to. You have
:10:34. > :10:42.this new fire engine this morning. It has got some kit on it, how can
:10:43. > :10:46.it help? As our crews are becoming under attack, we have fitted our
:10:47. > :10:50.appliances with CCTV. We have a camera in the front and also we have
:10:51. > :10:59.cameras on the side of the vehicle here. And at the rear providing 360
:11:00. > :11:07.degrees cover. Should our crews come under attack, or obstruct does in
:11:08. > :11:13.our duties, we can capture that on film and provide it to the police to
:11:14. > :11:19.help prosecute them. So we can see the camera on the back and assign
:11:20. > :11:23.clearly saying CCTV cameras in use. Is it bringing any results, does it
:11:24. > :11:28.help? No, it is there to raise awareness and informed the public
:11:29. > :11:32.but we have seen a 33% increase in the number of attacks since we have
:11:33. > :11:38.had the cameras fitted. That is quite shocking.
:11:39. > :11:49.The family who fled the Taliban in Pakistan only to find themselves
:11:50. > :11:55.under threat in the UK. The kids they are asking, you are very good,
:11:56. > :12:04.white are the people, they burn our house? This family fled their home
:12:05. > :12:12.country fearing for their lives. We were attacked in Pakistan by the
:12:13. > :12:18.Taliban. Our property, house and everything is burnt. We are
:12:19. > :12:22.protecting their identities to ensure they cannot be traced by
:12:23. > :12:30.those who knew them in Pakistan. When I got to the UK, I know this is
:12:31. > :12:32.safe country. Having uprooted their children to seek safety and asylum,
:12:33. > :12:39.in April this year the family was once again forced to leave their
:12:40. > :12:46.home. Around four o'clock, we heard the sound of the fire alarm and my
:12:47. > :12:53.wife and my kids and me, we all woke up. They rushed downstairs to find
:12:54. > :13:00.their front room full of smoke and flames. When we saw the fire, it was
:13:01. > :13:10.completely shocking. We were all very scared. Upset. We tried to save
:13:11. > :13:12.our kids and our lives. Although they managed to get outside, the
:13:13. > :13:29.blaze had taken hold. By the time the Fire Service arrived
:13:30. > :13:36.the house was engulfed by the flames. If the smoke alarm did not
:13:37. > :13:42.work, then my wife did not wake up before me, maybe we are not alive
:13:43. > :13:48.today. It is a small house, the fire was intense and it gutted the house.
:13:49. > :13:54.But luckily the children were rescued. Forensic investigation show
:13:55. > :14:02.this fire was no accident. We know the fire was started with petrol.
:14:03. > :14:06.Police would like to talk to a person on a bike seen on CCTV at
:14:07. > :14:12.around the time of the incident. The cyclist is riding a light coloured
:14:13. > :14:18.bike. Is possibly a man and wearing a three quarters length cut
:14:19. > :14:22.trousers. While the arsonist is still at large, the family don't
:14:23. > :14:30.feel safe in their adopted country. The kids they are asking questions.
:14:31. > :14:44.P, you are very nice, mother is a very good mum. Why do the people
:14:45. > :14:51.burn our house? It is about as serious as you can debt. Arson with
:14:52. > :14:58.intent to endanger life is a life imprisonment sentence. It endangers
:14:59. > :15:02.everybody in the street. If the police can find everybody who did
:15:03. > :15:09.this, it is good for me and my family. If an individual is willing
:15:10. > :15:12.to set fire to a house full of young children, is a very dangerous
:15:13. > :15:27.individual and I need to know who he is. The family has lost everything
:15:28. > :15:32.and are homeless. They have lost everything including the children's
:15:33. > :15:35.toys, and if it wasn't for the quick thinking of somebody shouting an
:15:36. > :15:41.internal door, the incident would have been graver. Do you have any
:15:42. > :15:46.idea who has done it? No idea, and we would welcome any leads from the
:15:47. > :15:50.public that they can give us. There is a still picture from the CCTV,
:15:51. > :15:54.not a great picture, but it shows a person you are interested in
:15:55. > :15:58.speaking to. This person is seen on a bicycle at the time of the fire
:15:59. > :16:05.and is vital to the enquiry. The person is riding a pale bicycle,
:16:06. > :16:07.wearing a pair of three quarters length trousers and is possibly
:16:08. > :16:12.carrying something in his right hand. This was in the early hours,
:16:13. > :16:16.around 4am in the morning on the 30th of April of this year. Just
:16:17. > :16:24.prior to fall in the morning. Thanks for running this to -- running us
:16:25. > :16:28.through that. Numbers will be on screen to get in touch. When there
:16:29. > :16:31.is a suspicious fire, the services need to work out of its been started
:16:32. > :16:37.deliberately, and this is where fire investigation dogs like Pepper
:16:38. > :16:44.comment. Matt Dixon has been training Pepper. -- come in. What do
:16:45. > :16:48.they do? They look for flammable liquids. When we suspect arson, or
:16:49. > :16:52.we want to rule it out, it's a tool we can use. Once the fire is out, we
:16:53. > :16:56.can send the dog into the scene and they can look for traces of
:16:57. > :17:02.flammable liquid left behind. What is Ever going to do this morning? We
:17:03. > :17:08.have set up a scenario and we had an arson, we have gloves that have been
:17:09. > :17:12.recovered. We are going to send over Pepper and she will hopefully show
:17:13. > :17:19.is the glove with the white spirit that the arsonist was wearing.
:17:20. > :17:24.Fantastic. Pepper has special kit on as well. She has. She is just
:17:25. > :17:29.indicating the glove with the turpentine on. She gets the ball as
:17:30. > :17:34.a treat. She always wears a harness when she is working. So she knows we
:17:35. > :17:37.are playing at this game at the moment. Most importantly, she wears
:17:38. > :17:43.little boots to protect our feed from Sharp 's -- objects, broken
:17:44. > :17:47.glass, nails and any areas that might be hot, because the last thing
:17:48. > :17:51.you want is the dog getting injured. Well done, Pepper. There are not
:17:52. > :17:58.many fire investigation dogs like her. Only approximately 15 in the
:17:59. > :18:03.country that do the job we do. It started in about 1985? The first dog
:18:04. > :18:08.was in the West Midlands, and that was in 1985, and that was the first
:18:09. > :18:14.dog in Europe. It is still growing, but they are a brilliant and
:18:15. > :18:19.invaluable tool. Absolutely. You are doing a great job. Later in the
:18:20. > :18:23.programme, Matt Dixon will be here with another dog, Kai, putting them
:18:24. > :18:28.through their paces. It's a very doggy show as we have another
:18:29. > :18:33.hard-working canine. Gorgeous Honey is here, a guide dog, and would you
:18:34. > :18:36.believe that there are ten reported attacks by other dogs on guide dogs
:18:37. > :18:41.every month will stop new laws came in earlier this year to give
:18:42. > :18:47.assistance dogs greater protection. We can also meet Honey's owner.
:18:48. > :18:54.Jonathan, if I start with you, assistant dogs had little protest in
:18:55. > :18:58.-- protection, did they? Up to 25% of the attacks have been repeat
:18:59. > :19:02.attacks. Up until now, the police have not have the power to respond
:19:03. > :19:07.in a robust way. New legislation means that an attack on a guide dog
:19:08. > :19:11.or an assistant dog is seen as an attack on a person, so it's an
:19:12. > :19:17.aggravated attack, which means that the new legislation says that if
:19:18. > :19:21.people are caught in that situation they could be imprisoned for up to
:19:22. > :19:27.three years in extreme cases. The law applies to dogs working and also
:19:28. > :19:32.free running. Kerstin, you know first-hand how serious an attack on
:19:33. > :19:35.a guide dog can be, because your dog before Honey, Norman was attacked in
:19:36. > :19:39.tragic circumstances. Tell us what happened. I was taking my
:19:40. > :19:43.seven-year-old daughter to the school bus, walking down the lane
:19:44. > :19:47.and I was aware of dogs on the other side and didn't think of anything --
:19:48. > :19:51.did not think anything of it. Then one came across the lane and
:19:52. > :19:55.attacked my dog in its harness. We can actually see some pictures now.
:19:56. > :20:02.We are looking at photos of Norman. Awful injuries on his face and also
:20:03. > :20:06.his body. I know he was able to make a physical recovery from knee
:20:07. > :20:11.injuries, but he was never the same, mentally and it was very sad what
:20:12. > :20:14.happened. He had to be retired because he became nervous of other
:20:15. > :20:18.dogs and he would pull away if he was approached by another dog. He
:20:19. > :20:23.never actually worked after the attack, and I did have to take him
:20:24. > :20:28.out on the leader couple of times. -- on the lead a couple of times. A
:20:29. > :20:33.couple of weeks after he was attacked, he officially retired.
:20:34. > :20:36.Very sad. It's not a case of just giving you another one, because it
:20:37. > :20:41.is difficult for a number of reasons. It severely affects people
:20:42. > :20:45.'s independence and reduces their confidence to get out and about.
:20:46. > :20:50.Secondly, you have seen the pictures, and the trauma for the dog
:20:51. > :20:55.is intense. The lifetime cost of a guide dog is about ?50,000 and we
:20:56. > :21:00.have had five dogs that had to be withdrawn because of significant
:21:01. > :21:05.attacks. It takes about two years to grow and build and bring a
:21:06. > :21:09.partnership together, and with a dog attack it can take 20 seconds to
:21:10. > :21:14.destroy it. Such a long time to train. You were very lucky with
:21:15. > :21:18.Honey. How long did it take you to get together and how has the bond
:21:19. > :21:23.been? I only had to wait three weeks, but that was pure luck. I
:21:24. > :21:27.could have waited 18 months. She's a great dog and I have bonded with
:21:28. > :21:31.her, but I had to go back to using a white cane to three weeks, which is
:21:32. > :21:36.slower. I had to have three weeks off work at a moments notice, which
:21:37. > :21:39.is never easy. It was a difficult time. I can imagine. Well, thank you
:21:40. > :21:43.both for coming in. Now, South Wales Police are
:21:44. > :21:45.launching a poster campaign They're trying to catch
:21:46. > :21:49.a man who sexually assaulted a woman on her way home from a Halloween
:21:50. > :21:52.party at a Cardiff nightclub. It's a crime that we ran
:21:53. > :22:20.an appeal for on the Crimewatch If he has done it to me, he could do
:22:21. > :22:29.it to somebody else. He just thinks that he's got away with it now, you
:22:30. > :22:32.know? Well, DS Gavin Sullivan, you won't let him get away with it. You
:22:33. > :22:37.are determined to catch this man. Remind us what happened. It was
:22:38. > :22:41.around 2am in the early hours of Friday morning, 1st of November. The
:22:42. > :22:47.young lady in question met her attacker near Clarence Road Bridge
:22:48. > :22:53.and was attacked some distance away, just across the way from here.
:22:54. > :22:57.You have brought the poster with us, and you are launching a
:22:58. > :23:04.campaign. It's in a number of languages which reflects the diverse
:23:05. > :23:06.ethnicity base of the community. We are trying to get as much
:23:07. > :23:11.information as we can about this gentleman here. We wish to speak to
:23:12. > :23:16.him. We are putting it in shops and various business premises in the
:23:17. > :23:21.area, for people to come forward and tell us if they know this person. He
:23:22. > :23:26.has a distinctive taboo on his left arm, but he also is five foot seven
:23:27. > :23:31.up to five foot eight in height, medium build, and from the Indian
:23:32. > :23:32.subcontinent. Lots of information there. Thanks very much. Look out
:23:33. > :23:39.for those posters in Cardiff. Right, lots more still to bring
:23:40. > :23:48.you this morning, including: A son who came to his mother 's aid
:23:49. > :23:52.in a robbery and feared the worst. When I looked into the house, all I
:23:53. > :23:57.could see was my mother's legs protruding from behind the wall. And
:23:58. > :24:02.a joint police initiative to help those who have overindulged. We come
:24:03. > :24:04.down and take them to the treatment centre, just to be safe.
:24:05. > :24:07.But first, we've got four men we'd like you to
:24:08. > :24:22.This guy is double trouble, make no mistake. He raids to bookmakers in
:24:23. > :24:27.central and south London in March, telling staff he is carrying a
:24:28. > :24:29.concealed gun. In this betting shop in Bromley, he threatens cashier 's
:24:30. > :24:35.with a weapon he says is wrapped in a plastic bag. He makes off with
:24:36. > :24:39.?373, but three days later, he walks into another bookies, this time in
:24:40. > :24:45.Lambeth, claiming he is packing a gun in the waste bag in his
:24:46. > :24:49.trousers. He leaves with ?432 and is clearly captured on camera. Police
:24:50. > :24:52.believe this is the same man and they need your help to end his
:24:53. > :25:04.stealing streak. This man is after a bargain, but he
:25:05. > :25:06.doesn't plan to pay cash. He is browsing at a pawnbroker in
:25:07. > :25:11.south-east London, and then decides to take a seat. From here, he can
:25:12. > :25:16.see what is behind the counter and what he is after is mobile phones.
:25:17. > :25:20.He asks a member of staff to look at one of them, and he takes the
:25:21. > :25:25.opportunity to sit closer to the counter. He is in no hurry, chatting
:25:26. > :25:30.to the staff, but his attention is now firmly on those bones. And with
:25:31. > :25:36.a final round, and a glance straight at the camera, he leans over and
:25:37. > :25:37.swipes a handset worth ?180. Does this phone thief ring a bell? Give
:25:38. > :25:48.us a call. It is lunchtime at this pub in
:25:49. > :25:52.Richmond, London, and a con is about to happen. Outside the pub, an
:25:53. > :25:57.elderly man is sprayed with liquid by a complete stranger. Seeing the
:25:58. > :26:01.old man's distress, a passer-by guides him into the pub. But this
:26:02. > :26:08.good Samaritan is and all he seems. He knows the 84-year-old has just
:26:09. > :26:12.withdrawn ?400. He takes the old man's code, saying he will watch it
:26:13. > :26:16.in the pub's toilet. Shaken by his ordeal, the old man waits by the bar
:26:17. > :26:21.and then heads to the gents. That is when the man who sprayed him walks
:26:22. > :26:25.in. Police say that in less than a minute, the pension is Rob by the
:26:26. > :26:29.two men, who ran out of the pub with the money. The barman must realise
:26:30. > :26:32.something is wrong because he chases after them. Help us to identify
:26:33. > :26:36.these cowards before they strike again.
:26:37. > :26:38.Now we're hearing this morning about dangers faced by emergency services.
:26:39. > :26:42.Alcohol often plays a part, so in the first project of its kind in the
:26:43. > :26:45.UK, emergency services in Cardiff have come together to find an
:26:46. > :26:48.innovative way of keeping people out of the police cells and hospitals
:26:49. > :27:05.It's Friday night, and in Cardiff, like so many other cities, there's
:27:06. > :27:13.always a danger that the party atmosphere might turn a little sour.
:27:14. > :27:16.Before the night is over, some of the revellers may well find
:27:17. > :27:22.themselves in a hospital or even a police cell. We have a duty of care
:27:23. > :27:27.to people when we come across them in the street and they are not in a
:27:28. > :27:32.fit state to look after themselves. But all this can take up valuable
:27:33. > :27:37.police time and resources. It takes the officers away from where they
:27:38. > :27:41.are needed most. But the police have come together with the ambulance
:27:42. > :27:46.service, street pastors and the health board to offer a solution, a
:27:47. > :27:51.pop-up emergency unit, open on Friday and Saturday night, geared
:27:52. > :27:55.towards treating drunken partygoers. From a police point of view, it has
:27:56. > :27:59.managed to free up our time because we are not waiting for an ambulance
:28:00. > :28:03.to attend. It is in a close location to where the pubs and bars are, so
:28:04. > :28:07.they can go there quickly and be dealt with, which means my officers
:28:08. > :28:12.can remain on the streets and do their usual duties. The work of the
:28:13. > :28:21.nurse led alcohol treatment centre is pioneering. The aim of it is to
:28:22. > :28:24.keep the intoxication -- intoxicated patients out of the unit, which
:28:25. > :28:28.frees up the police and the ambulances and puts people in the
:28:29. > :28:31.right place. The patients will come in waves. We have six or eight come
:28:32. > :28:36.in at once. You can't do it with just that amount of Star. The police
:28:37. > :28:42.clean up the sick, top and bottom. -- amount of staff. There is no
:28:43. > :28:47.shortage of casualties for the unit this evening. I'm a bit concerned
:28:48. > :28:57.now. If he walks around the corner and he falls over and hurt himself,
:28:58. > :29:01.that is my concern at the moment. We are going to take you to the alcohol
:29:02. > :29:05.treatment centre? We have asked a mobile medics to come down and taken
:29:06. > :29:10.to the treatment centre so he will be safe and he can be sobered up
:29:11. > :29:15.before he goes home. Since it was started, we have had 387 individuals
:29:16. > :29:19.attending the centre, and only 33 of those were taken to hospital. You
:29:20. > :29:23.can see how successful it has been in preventing those individuals from
:29:24. > :29:27.being taken to accident and emergency. The centre ensures that
:29:28. > :29:31.its patients sober up in a safe environment, keeping them off the
:29:32. > :29:35.streets and out of trouble. It is this young man's 18th birthday and
:29:36. > :29:41.he's decided to celebrate it with us. It wouldn't work without the
:29:42. > :29:45.police, because it can be a hostile environment. But those police that
:29:46. > :29:51.work with us, they act as an extra health care assistant at time --
:29:52. > :29:56.time. They make it what it is. Not only is the joint effort paying off
:29:57. > :29:58.by keeping drunken revellers off the streets and out of hospital, it's
:29:59. > :30:04.also making a dent in the crime rate. The most recent figures show
:30:05. > :30:07.it is at an all-time low, and within the city centre the alcohol
:30:08. > :30:13.treatment has significantly helped us in achieving that reduction. It's
:30:14. > :30:34.a fantastic scheme. A great partnership, and the results speak
:30:35. > :30:40.for themselves. Seven out of ten cases that go into A at the
:30:41. > :30:49.weekend are alcohol-related. This is to act like a triage centre for
:30:50. > :30:51.those individuals. We can facilitate them at the centre so we are not
:30:52. > :30:54.wasting time for ambulances and we are free to carry on with our
:30:55. > :30:58.duties. Torque is through the impacts the front-line staff have
:30:59. > :31:05.when people have drunk too much alcohol. You must meet some
:31:06. > :31:17.aggressive people sometimes? It is aggressive people, working in the
:31:18. > :31:24.treatment centre. The main aggression in a main A unit
:31:25. > :31:28.decreases because of the centre. What about the partnership? The
:31:29. > :31:35.police had to roll up their sleeves? They do, they get their
:31:36. > :31:41.hands dirty and clean up the vomit and other bodily fluids that might
:31:42. > :31:48.be around. Talking about what you have to do when you step it up a bit
:31:49. > :31:53.and somebody has had too much to drink. You do have measures and the
:31:54. > :31:57.law at your disposal? One thing we have is the section 27 disposal
:31:58. > :32:02.notice so if we can identify individuals who have had too much to
:32:03. > :32:09.drink and think they are a risk of committing alcohol related disorder,
:32:10. > :32:15.it means they have to leave the city centre. If they come back in, they
:32:16. > :32:20.will be arrested and spend the night in a cell. As we heard some of the
:32:21. > :32:27.problems, it is also on the road. You are trained in basic driving and
:32:28. > :32:31.you have this police car that can help you. Unfortunately there are
:32:32. > :32:36.times we are attacked. It is vital we have the relevant skills and
:32:37. > :32:45.training. Camara is now, every time in these cars? There are four Camara
:32:46. > :32:49.'s in the car. This is to recognise an automatic number plate. It will
:32:50. > :32:56.tell as any information. Fascinating stuff. If you had a knock at the
:32:57. > :33:02.door from someone shouting, police! Chances are you would open it. That
:33:03. > :33:08.is what 81-year-old Beryl did to her cost.
:33:09. > :33:14.I would not open the door normally. 99% of the time I would not open the
:33:15. > :33:21.door. Who is there? Police. They could have killed her and they could
:33:22. > :33:25.go on to kill somebody else. When 81-year-old Beryl Hawkins developed
:33:26. > :33:29.a heart condition, her son, Stephen and his wife took over the flat
:33:30. > :33:35.downstairs to be close to her. We moved here about three years ago for
:33:36. > :33:39.her peace of mind so she had somebody there if she needed, to
:33:40. > :33:44.look after her. Stephen was also on hand to reassure Errol that if
:33:45. > :33:50.strangers ever came knocking. I have always told my mother, don't answer
:33:51. > :33:55.the door to anybody if you don't know what it is. The one time she
:33:56. > :33:59.did not do it, is when something did happen. The evening of April the
:34:00. > :34:07.4th. Beryl had settled down for the night when an unexpected visitor
:34:08. > :34:14.called. He rang the door bell. I went to the door, as to who it was.
:34:15. > :34:16.He shouted it was the police. Naturally I opened the door. It
:34:17. > :34:27.wasn't the police, it was this horrible man. He pushed me inside.
:34:28. > :34:35.Pushed me on to the floor and put his hand over my mouth. Shut up and
:34:36. > :34:43.be quiet. I don't know what I was thinking, I was petrified. I wanted
:34:44. > :34:52.to get my heart spray. He told me to be quiet. The man held her down and
:34:53. > :34:58.direct did two of the men to search her flat. They found the safe in one
:34:59. > :35:02.of the bedrooms. I was binding the floor with my foot to attract my
:35:03. > :35:09.son. I heard a couple of small thuds and thought it was the neighbours
:35:10. > :35:13.doing something because they quite often do DIY. Shortly after that I
:35:14. > :35:18.heard about three or four knocks and realise the noise was coming from
:35:19. > :35:26.upstairs from where my mum lives. Stephen Ray Stubbs stirs. As he did,
:35:27. > :35:48.two of the men came bursting out of his mum's flat. As I was at the
:35:49. > :35:56.front door, I looked into her house. All I could see where her legs
:35:57. > :36:03.protruding from behind a wall. Fearing the worst, Stephen went to
:36:04. > :36:07.help his mum but as he did, the third man sprang out at him. When we
:36:08. > :36:09.were at the front door, I tripped on something so I lost my balance and
:36:10. > :36:13.my grip. Hearing the noise, Stephen's wife raced to Beryl's aid.
:36:14. > :36:17.I felt he wanted to hurt me. He put his hand out towards my face. But he
:36:18. > :36:33.was too strong, lost my grip and he ran off. Mum, mum! That Audi was
:36:34. > :36:38.caught on CCTV and police later found it abandoned. They have been
:36:39. > :36:44.traumatised by this incident. They have had to install extra security
:36:45. > :36:48.measures because they did not feel safe after this. Excessive violence
:36:49. > :36:55.was used against an 81-year-old who could not defend herself. The one
:36:56. > :37:01.thing they took was the safe. The only thing I am pleased about is the
:37:02. > :37:05.fact the safe is empty and I would like to have seen their faces when
:37:06. > :37:09.they opened it. Alison is having treatment for torn tendons in her
:37:10. > :37:15.wrist. The whole family is trying to come to terms with what happened. I
:37:16. > :37:23.thought she was going to die. I really did. I thought, no you can't.
:37:24. > :37:29.I try not to think about it because when I think about it I get all
:37:30. > :37:44.shaking, nervous. When it was happening I was dreadfully afraid. I
:37:45. > :37:49.was terrified. A particularly nasty attack, what can you tell others
:37:50. > :37:52.about the menu are looking for? Three men involved, all of similar
:37:53. > :37:59.descriptions described as white, 5'10" tall with slim build. One has
:38:00. > :38:06.ginger hair and want has a strong Irish accent. You are looking for a
:38:07. > :38:16.car and you have brought along this number plate. This number plate was
:38:17. > :38:18.cloned on that occasion and there is a car driving round with this number
:38:19. > :38:23.plate that is legitimate. Tell others about the car you are looking
:38:24. > :38:27.for. This grey Audi A3 has left the scene, a powerful model and was
:38:28. > :38:32.later recovered in the West Mercia Police. Looking for witnesses in
:38:33. > :38:38.that area as well. They got away with the safe like that. I want to
:38:39. > :38:43.ask you about what people should do. The lady thought it was the police
:38:44. > :38:49.and that is the only reason she let them in. Have your chain on, ask for
:38:50. > :38:54.identification. Genuine police officers in uniform or not, will
:38:55. > :38:58.have identification and will be happy to see it. They barged in in
:38:59. > :39:01.this case. Now we really need
:39:02. > :39:03.your help to trace two violent robbers who attacked a man near his
:39:04. > :39:07.home in Hillingdon in North London. The incident happened on
:39:08. > :39:09.Frithwood Avenue on the 6th March and was captured on CCTV
:39:10. > :39:13.which we can see now. As the victim was leaving
:39:14. > :39:16.his home at about 9:15am, They knocked him to the ground
:39:17. > :39:23.and carried out a brutal assault, The attack was so violent we've
:39:24. > :39:33.had to blur some of the footage. But
:39:34. > :39:36.during the attack the men then took the victim's car keys, wallet and
:39:37. > :39:39.watch which is worth about ?6,000. We can see an image
:39:40. > :39:42.of the watch now. The model number is SC38S and it
:39:43. > :40:02.has a serial number of BO-27854. Have you seen a watch like this.
:40:03. > :40:16.Earlier we saw Matt Lee Dickson with P. He has brought along Kai now. I
:40:17. > :40:23.am in the process of training Kai to be a drowning person search dog. He
:40:24. > :40:29.will look for human remains below water level. There are a couple of
:40:30. > :40:33.dogs in training in the UK but to my knowledge there are no operational
:40:34. > :40:41.dogs doing this job. So it will be quite specific. How do you do that?
:40:42. > :40:47.I presume it takes many hours? The training is in a related, same with
:40:48. > :40:52.the fire investigation dogs, it is about the dog wanting to get its
:40:53. > :40:58.toy. The toy becomes submerged and hidden and the dog is trained to
:40:59. > :41:02.bark for his toy and you transferred that behaviour across to the sense
:41:03. > :41:08.of human remains below water level. We are dying to see Kai in action.
:41:09. > :41:16.Can you put him through his paces. We are training him as part of the
:41:17. > :41:25.flood rescue team. That is what the throne line is about. We will train
:41:26. > :41:27.him to retrieve throw lines to craps and vessels and things and
:41:28. > :41:35.potentially swim across a river and run round the tree with the line and
:41:36. > :41:43.tie it off. Very relevant with those floods. He has his life jacket on.
:41:44. > :41:51.We are a little bit wet! Well done Kai. He did well, did he? This is
:41:52. > :41:54.about getting him used to the environment and getting him used to
:41:55. > :42:00.being in the water and get used to the throne line being exciting and
:42:01. > :42:09.being a toy. It is fascinating seeing the work you are doing. Time
:42:10. > :42:20.for a quick update. Lots of calls again on our Wanted Faces. Police
:42:21. > :42:24.chasing something up on that. Also on the man who followed a student
:42:25. > :42:28.home in Cardiff and police say they are following up leads at
:42:29. > :42:33.yesterday's programme at the petrol station robbery in Coventry.
:42:34. > :42:37.Detectives say they have new leads but are encouraging anyone with
:42:38. > :42:45.information to come forward. Sian, where will you be tomorrow? After I
:42:46. > :42:49.have dried off, tomorrow I will be finding out what it takes to be a
:42:50. > :42:54.front line police officer. Also following a community officer as he
:42:55. > :43:07.tries to take anti-social behaviour OFT the streets. There will be some
:43:08. > :43:13.more fraudsters caught in the act on framed and shamed. Finally we will
:43:14. > :43:24.leave you with another look at the Wanted Faces. Callers if you know
:43:25. > :43:31.where they are. -- Claimed and Shamed.
