:00:07. > :00:11.We're on the road once again with police,

:00:12. > :00:15.The brutal attack on the former Liverpool chairman -

:00:16. > :00:25.A family-run post office shaken by a violent robbery.

:00:26. > :00:31.It was a terrifying realisation of what was about to happen,

:00:32. > :00:34.And meet Belle, the heroic rescue dog who sniffed out a man buried

:00:35. > :01:06.Hello and welcome to Crimewatch Roadshow.

:01:07. > :01:08.As always, we need your help to solve the crimes

:01:09. > :01:15.Driven to distraction - the on-going battle to stop

:01:16. > :01:23.If 32 tonnes hits you that's going to do some serious damage

:01:24. > :01:26.and he's got to live with that if he kills somebody.

:01:27. > :01:28.And the brave little girls whose 999 call could have

:01:29. > :01:41.Today, we're at Merseyside Fire and Rescue's training centre.

:01:42. > :01:47.Michelle, what's going on down there?

:01:48. > :01:58.Modelling. We are finding out how emergency services respond to all

:01:59. > :02:02.kinds of 999 calls. And these firefighters will be demonstrating

:02:03. > :02:06.some of the challenging situations they face, including what happens at

:02:07. > :02:11.the crash scene like this and how they rescue somebody trapped inside

:02:12. > :02:16.a vehicle. First, police in Lancashire need your help to track

:02:17. > :02:30.down Avenue Island, armed gang of post office robbers. Faceless figure

:02:31. > :02:33.in a black mask. Two holes, staring. Certainly nothing I have gone

:02:34. > :02:49.through that has ever been as scary as that. I never, ever want to feel

:02:50. > :02:56.that again. It was horrible. Lisa Jackson has been the postmistress in

:02:57. > :03:02.Ecclestone for more than 30 years. I love my job, I wouldn't have done it

:03:03. > :03:09.for so long if I didn't enjoy it so much. Her daughter, helps run the

:03:10. > :03:14.family business. It is our livelihood and it is very, very

:03:15. > :03:24.important. But last summer, as they closed up, their lives were turned

:03:25. > :03:33.upside down. We were busy adding up the figures for the day. Then, all

:03:34. > :03:39.of the sudden, I heard a very loud bang to the front door. Initially, I

:03:40. > :03:45.didn't know what was happening. And when it happened the second time,

:03:46. > :03:53.then I managed to see out of the corner of the glass that there was a

:03:54. > :03:59.guy dressed all in black with a balaclava. It was a terrifying

:04:00. > :04:08.realisation of what was about to happen. We were going to have a raid

:04:09. > :04:15.on the office. I got hold of Laurie and told her to get out. It was the

:04:16. > :04:22.tone of her voice, it was panic. Your mum, you see to protect you.

:04:23. > :04:28.When you see she scared, it must be something bad, obviously happening.

:04:29. > :04:35.Laurie ran to the back room, but Lee decided she wasn't going to make it

:04:36. > :04:43.easy. I ran to the front of the shop and slammed the safe door shut on

:04:44. > :04:48.it. I thought she was right behind me and she wasn't there. I saw her

:04:49. > :04:52.running towards me and then, my thought was, they are going to get

:04:53. > :05:01.her. She is not going to get out, she is miles away. I have never,

:05:02. > :05:05.ever been that scared in my life. I looked back and that is when I saw

:05:06. > :05:11.them coming into the office just as I close the door into the kitchen

:05:12. > :05:17.area. As Lisa and Laurie made their escape, the robbers burst in with

:05:18. > :05:24.one thing on their mind, money. They were armed with a huge sledgehammer,

:05:25. > :05:27.a six part wrecking bar and a sawn off shotgun. One robber tried to

:05:28. > :05:35.smash his way into the secure area. Another, leapt over-the-counter and

:05:36. > :05:40.began searching for the cash. But he didn't find any and his friends

:05:41. > :05:43.failed to break into the secure office. After two minutes, they fled

:05:44. > :06:00.empty-handed. We just stood outside waiting,

:06:01. > :06:07.probably in shock. My mum just looked at me and said, are you OK? I

:06:08. > :06:15.said, I don't think I am. She started sobbing, at this point. So

:06:16. > :06:22.that was really tough. Struggling to make sense of what had happened,

:06:23. > :06:27.Lisa and Laurie watched the CCTV recording. It was a realisation how

:06:28. > :06:32.violent these men were. There was no doubt in my mind they would have

:06:33. > :06:39.used as much violence as they wanted to against us. The three armed

:06:40. > :06:44.robbers made their getaway in a white Volvo XC60 with false plates

:06:45. > :06:52.which had been stolen a few days earlier. It is now a year since the

:06:53. > :06:58.attack. Lisa and Laurie is still run the post office and it is on their

:06:59. > :07:01.mind every day. It will stay with you for the rest of your life. We

:07:02. > :07:13.just learned now how to deal with the feelings, any flashbacks, any

:07:14. > :07:18.memories, loud bangs at work. The noise, when they were trying to

:07:19. > :07:24.break in, was, for me, probably the scariest part. So, now, any

:07:25. > :07:30.replication of that noise, immediately brings it all back to

:07:31. > :07:37.you. I would like to be able to put a face behind the mask. I would like

:07:38. > :07:44.to be able to take away the black mask. It was one of the most

:07:45. > :07:54.terrifying things. A really horrible ordeal. Detective Sergeant Jeanette

:07:55. > :08:00.Bash joins me now. This is an organised group prepared to use

:08:01. > :08:05.violence. The first one was large, tall with black trainers. The second

:08:06. > :08:08.one was a heavy build with a green jacket and the third one was taller,

:08:09. > :08:15.carrying a sledgehammer with distinctive blue trainers. We have

:08:16. > :08:22.distinctive trainers here. Yes, they are bright blue, Adidas Flux

:08:23. > :08:34.trainers. They made their getaway in a Volvo is the 60 stolen in the area

:08:35. > :08:39.a few days before. It was on L14 RGN, false plates. They abandoned

:08:40. > :08:48.the car on Halfpenny Lane in Ecclestone and set it alight. What

:08:49. > :08:54.about the blue Audi? This was abandoned at The Mechanics Arms in

:08:55. > :09:00.Hindley Green. Anyone seen in these vehicles around the time in July

:09:01. > :09:06.2015, we want to hear from. If you have any information that can help

:09:07. > :09:12.provide Lisa and Laurie with some answers, get in touch. The details

:09:13. > :09:18.are on your screen. Next, do you recognise any of these

:09:19. > :09:26.criminals on CCTV. So you know, a couple of these are pretty serious.

:09:27. > :09:30.This bank in St Neots in Cambridge is about to close ready for New

:09:31. > :09:34.Year's Eve the next day. But these men have made an early resolution to

:09:35. > :09:40.take money that doesn't belong to them. One of the masked men keeps a

:09:41. > :09:43.lookout, while the others get to work. Ed Balls the cashier to the

:09:44. > :09:50.ground so she cannot press the alarm. The police say they even put

:09:51. > :09:54.a wooden pole on her head so she cannot move. They make off with

:09:55. > :09:59.nearly a grand in cash and getaway in a silver car towards the Amesbury

:10:00. > :10:07.estate. These menus to fear tactics to get finances. Let's have some

:10:08. > :10:15.names, please. A small clothes shop in Monmouth.

:10:16. > :10:20.Take a look at these two. They start to browse but they have no intention

:10:21. > :10:24.of buying anything. The lady in red has picked out a jacket, just in

:10:25. > :10:31.time in walks another member of the group, wearing a rucksack. The man

:10:32. > :10:37.shields the shenanigans with a shirt. Look closely, the woman in

:10:38. > :10:45.red is stuffing the jacket into the rucksack. This lot stole ?400 worth

:10:46. > :10:49.of stock. Let's get this for them buttoned up before they release

:10:50. > :10:53.another sharp! Names, please. -- fleece.

:10:54. > :11:02.It is early on Monday morning in Salisbury and as this shop assistant

:11:03. > :11:07.begins to open up, her first customer 's themes in a bit of a

:11:08. > :11:11.hurry. He storms in and demands access to the safe. But this

:11:12. > :11:17.shopkeeper is not giving in without a fight. Whilst this track on him

:11:18. > :11:22.outside, he cannot decide whether to stay or go. Seeing an opportunity to

:11:23. > :11:26.get help, the woman tries to pass down a passing silver car. This

:11:27. > :11:36.robber doesn't like it and gets pushy. He leaves again, giving the

:11:37. > :11:43.shopkeeper the opportunity to lock him out. He runs off empty-handed

:11:44. > :11:48.towards Saint Clement way. Police are keen to unmask this guy. You

:11:49. > :11:57.know what to do. If you recognise anyone, get on the phone now, the

:11:58. > :12:03.number is member-macro. -- number macro.

:12:04. > :12:17.Send us an e-mail. Take a look at this. Here at

:12:18. > :12:20.Merseyside fire and you centre, they give firefighters are most realistic

:12:21. > :12:27.training. But these guys get more calls from road traffic collisions

:12:28. > :12:34.than fires, most do with motorists using their mobile phones behind the

:12:35. > :12:39.wheel. David and Beryl Newdick are active members of their local

:12:40. > :12:45.church. And that is where they met one of their closest friends, Mary

:12:46. > :12:48.Rutherford. She had a laugh which was very contagious, a loving and

:12:49. > :12:55.caring person and a very good friend. In May 2011, the three

:12:56. > :13:00.friends went out for the day to do some shopping. The drive home change

:13:01. > :13:05.their lives. I saw the car coming around the corner and onto the grass

:13:06. > :13:11.verge. All of a sudden there was this impacts and then the

:13:12. > :13:17.realisation we had been in a crash. Tragically, Mary was killed. She was

:13:18. > :13:27.68 and had just recovered from cancer. In the ambulance, they told

:13:28. > :13:35.me Mary had passed away. I wasn't sure, I knew she was struggling in

:13:36. > :13:40.the car. Be airlifted her out, my wife, otherwise she would have been

:13:41. > :13:45.dead as well. What was a normal day, turned into a disaster. The driver

:13:46. > :13:53.who ploughed into their car was using his phone at the wheel. Mary

:13:54. > :13:57.was one victim of a much wider problem. Every day, thousands of

:13:58. > :14:05.motorists use their phone while striving, even though it's been

:14:06. > :14:10.illegal since 2003. The risks are huge and police in Cheshire are

:14:11. > :14:13.clamping down in a week of action. It's not long before traffic

:14:14. > :14:21.officer, crisp Buckley, spot someone on their phone. The driver of a 32

:14:22. > :14:24.tonne cement mixer. Definitely had a silver phone two is here. Have a

:14:25. > :14:32.quick chat with him. Do you know why I want to speak to

:14:33. > :14:39.you? Know I don't. You are using your mobile phone. He issues a

:14:40. > :14:43.traffic offence report. A professional driver who admits to

:14:44. > :14:46.being on the phone. He was more concerned about getting points on

:14:47. > :14:52.his licence and the consequences of what could have happened. This 32

:14:53. > :15:00.tonnes hits you, it will do some damage. He has got to live with

:15:01. > :15:04.that. If you are new mobile phone, you are four times more likely to be

:15:05. > :15:12.involved in a collision. People don't realise how much their

:15:13. > :15:16.attention is not on the road. Text link on his phone, and 70 malls an

:15:17. > :15:20.now. Potentially going to be involved in an accident. The driver

:15:21. > :15:25.says he was using his phone to change music tracks.

:15:26. > :15:33.On the motorway, it doesn't take much for somebody to enter the

:15:34. > :15:37.motorway and then you are into the back of them, aren't you? Minute

:15:38. > :15:42.Minutes later a van driver catches his eye? A guy going past, holding

:15:43. > :15:50.his mobile phone. When we catch up with him, he won't be doing the

:15:51. > :15:55.same. See what he has to say. Have a quick sit in the back. Have you been

:15:56. > :16:02.on any form of awareness courses or anything in the past, or anything?

:16:03. > :16:06.No. OK. Instead of a fine and points some depriefrs offered a chance to

:16:07. > :16:11.go on a course. The course is designed to educate people. I always

:16:12. > :16:16.say if we tell you ten things, you learn one, that one thing might safe

:16:17. > :16:21.your life, my life someone else's life. The message doesn't seem to be

:16:22. > :16:27.getting across to people. There is one there going past. With With so

:16:28. > :16:31.many people still risking lives, the Government is considering raising

:16:32. > :16:32.the fine from ?100 to ?150 and increasing the number of penalty

:16:33. > :16:37.sports Points. In the space of five hours

:16:38. > :16:40.we have stopped five drivers where people have been texting or holding

:16:41. > :16:45.the phone out into the front of it and even somebody using the phone to

:16:46. > :16:48.change the music, all of which are contributing to the fact that none

:16:49. > :16:51.have been paying full attention to the roads. Message is simple. Don't

:16:52. > :16:59.use your mobile phone whilst driving. Otherwise you will be

:17:00. > :17:07.caught and dealt with. After Mary died, we decided we would

:17:08. > :17:17.want to remember her and put the chair on the promenade, in her

:17:18. > :17:20.memory. Our lives were turned upside down by someone being stupid, using

:17:21. > :17:24.a mobile phone when they shouldn't be. Remember one day this could be

:17:25. > :17:27.you, if you do it. This could be you.

:17:28. > :17:33.Incredible that so many people still take such risks. Lots more to come

:17:34. > :17:38.this morning. Including: Previously unseen C TV of the men

:17:39. > :17:42.wanted for attacking former Liverpool Chairman, David Moores. --

:17:43. > :17:50.CCTV. And virtual reality crime fighting. I will be trying out the

:17:51. > :17:53.new kit which instantly transport juries to the scene of the crime.

:17:54. > :17:58.But first, police in Scotland are appealing for your help to solve a

:17:59. > :18:04.crime which has shocked a quiet Aberdeenshire village. On 12th March

:18:05. > :18:08.this year, local mechanic, Brian McKandie whereas found murdered at

:18:09. > :18:11.his home. DCI Ian Smith of Police Scotland is here. What can you tell

:18:12. > :18:17.us? It was a particularly despicable crime. The brutal murder of a

:18:18. > :18:24.67-year-old man living alone at his home address. Brian lived in a small

:18:25. > :18:29.ham let near wrothy Norman village in be aerer Deanshire. He wassal

:18:30. > :18:32.mechanic and handy man. We know he was a popular man, well-respected in

:18:33. > :18:35.the local community which makes the crime all the more senseless. His

:18:36. > :18:41.brother William has appealed for information, too. We can see a clip

:18:42. > :18:46.now. Somebody, somewhere, must know what happened to Brian. I would ask

:18:47. > :18:51.them to look at their conscience and call the police. We are finding this

:18:52. > :18:56.whole situation really hard to come to terms with. We have lost our

:18:57. > :19:00.brother and we just want to know what happened and why.

:19:01. > :19:05.So what do we know about how Brian died? Well, 12th March was a

:19:06. > :19:09.Saturday and that afternoon friends of Brian's called at his home

:19:10. > :19:15.address. They became concerned when they couldn't contacted him so they

:19:16. > :19:19.in turn contacted the police. The polyattend and managed to gain entry

:19:20. > :19:23.and they found Brian dead within. It looked like he had been attacked

:19:24. > :19:26.with probably a heavy weapon. We have carried out extensive inquiries

:19:27. > :19:30.and a forensic examination of the address since then but again, we

:19:31. > :19:34.have still not established the motive for this crime. A herbal

:19:35. > :19:39.crime. There are several other lines of inquiry, including two of -- a

:19:40. > :19:42.horrible crime. Including two other potential witnesses would you like

:19:43. > :19:48.to identify. Tell me about those. There are a number of sightings of

:19:49. > :19:53.various people attending brie's address on Friday, 11th March. --

:19:54. > :20:00.Brian's address. Two are described as heavy set build, age 30 to 50,

:20:01. > :20:05.the other 20 to 30 years of age, a thinner build. We think they are

:20:06. > :20:11.connected to a maroon or Boyer gunnedy boxy estate car, possibly a

:20:12. > :20:15.Volvo, we think that vehicle, those individuals attended atbury an's

:20:16. > :20:22.address through the course of Friday 11th March. -- attend at Brian's

:20:23. > :20:25.address. There is also a reward The charity Crimestoppers have offered a

:20:26. > :20:29.reward of up to ?10,000 for any information that leads to the arrest

:20:30. > :20:31.and conviction of the individual or individuals responsible forbury an's

:20:32. > :20:35.death. Thank you very much for joining us

:20:36. > :20:39.today. To be eligible for that reward you need to contact

:20:40. > :20:45.Crimestoppers directly. Here is the number. 0800555111. Back to

:20:46. > :20:51.Michelle. If there is one thing the guys at

:20:52. > :20:54.Merseyside fire and rescue know how to do, it is to deal with difficult

:20:55. > :20:56.emergency calls but when the calls are being made by children, it is

:20:57. > :21:25.particularly distressing. It is Lily and Eve and me, just the

:21:26. > :21:31.three of us. Chaotic sometimes with three girls. Lily is aged 9, my

:21:32. > :21:36.eldest, and you have Eva who is mega boy strus, super confident. They are

:21:37. > :21:41.the best little girls in the world. But in November last year, Lily and

:21:42. > :21:46.Eva had to deal well a very grown-up situation. The family were driving

:21:47. > :21:51.along a busy dual carriageway when Claire ban to feel ill. I started to

:21:52. > :21:57.feel really quite sick sudden lane my head began to hurt. I was fairly

:21:58. > :22:01.close to home when I realised that for safety I'd bet pull over. All of

:22:02. > :22:07.a sudden she made this noise, this really shocking noise and I was just

:22:08. > :22:12.like - do I need to call 999? She didn't respond, so I panicked.

:22:13. > :22:16.The girls were saying - are you OK, mummy? But my head was banging.

:22:17. > :22:22.That's really the last thing I remember. I was just like - right,

:22:23. > :22:27.what should I do? Right, first of all, call 999, comfort eva. She was

:22:28. > :22:32.obviously screaming at the time. I reached her and put my arms around

:22:33. > :22:35.her like this and I went, "Come on on, it is going to be OK, Eva, don't

:22:36. > :23:01.worry, mummy is going to be fine." Lily was on the phone for almost

:23:02. > :23:06.#10e minutes and gave enough information for the police and

:23:07. > :23:09.ambulance to find them. We had to keep believing in ourselves and

:23:10. > :23:15.believing everything was going to be all right. I was proud of them for

:23:16. > :23:19.dialling 999 as any parent would be, but I have really, really instilled

:23:20. > :23:22.it in them for a long time, especially even more so, since it

:23:23. > :23:28.has been the three of us. A freightening experience for the

:23:29. > :23:30.Barber family, all in a day's work for call handlers at Greater

:23:31. > :23:35.Manchester Police's emergency control room, who respond to almost

:23:36. > :23:40.2 million calls for help each year. Our calls range from a neighbour

:23:41. > :23:44.dispute between the garden fence all the way to domestic murder, where

:23:45. > :23:49.you are on the phone while someone is getting stabbed.

:23:50. > :23:53.Even people on a bridge, wanting to throw themselves off. I know there

:23:54. > :23:58.are certain pieces of really, really important information that I need to

:23:59. > :24:02.know straightaway from a call. Greater Manchester Police, can I

:24:03. > :24:06.help you? With a child we would listen to establish their level of

:24:07. > :24:10.understanding of the situation and use simple, basic words to gain

:24:11. > :24:13.information. Asking them to describe things, so such as, maybe trees,

:24:14. > :24:18.buildings or if they were able it read, if they could see any street

:24:19. > :24:21.signs around them. It is always a sigh of relief when you have

:24:22. > :24:25.actually finished the call and you know you have the correct location

:24:26. > :24:30.to send the officers to. The service is 24 hours a day, seven

:24:31. > :24:35.days a week, constantly, no matter what time of day, year. What

:24:36. > :24:40.celebration day it is, we are here to help the public when they need us

:24:41. > :24:44.the most. I get an immense A satisfaction from doing my job. I

:24:45. > :24:49.know I have helped people, through a variety of situations, I might have

:24:50. > :24:53.saved people's lives. It takes out of us a lot mentally and emotionally

:24:54. > :24:57.but I can't imagine doing a different job.

:24:58. > :25:00.Earlier this year, call handler Stephanie Bishop was honoured by

:25:01. > :25:06.Greater Manchester Police, for the way she guided Lily and Eva through

:25:07. > :25:13.their ordeal. The girls also received bravely rewards for their

:25:14. > :25:17.remarkable work. I just felt so, so happy that mummy was OK. I was just

:25:18. > :25:21.like - oh, everything is going to be fine.

:25:22. > :25:26.For somebody to do it and especially a nine-year-old and a six-year-old,

:25:27. > :25:29.I think it is obvious to everybody out there how amazing they Z they

:25:30. > :25:35.are my little superheroes. -- they did.

:25:36. > :25:39.What an amazing story. Now every day emergency services

:25:40. > :25:43.have to deal with serious accidents just like this. Today I'm going to

:25:44. > :25:48.be the victim, cut out of a car. Obviously this is just a demo, but

:25:49. > :25:54.realistic training like this is important for new recruits. Inside

:25:55. > :25:58.the car is Tony Brown. Talk me through exactly what was going to

:25:59. > :26:04.happen to get me out of the car. The firefighters are going to make the

:26:05. > :26:07.scene safe and stabilise the car and see what the plan is. Assessing

:26:08. > :26:12.casualties is important but assessing the type of car is, too,

:26:13. > :26:18.for the cutting process Every car is different. There are danger points

:26:19. > :26:24.within the car. We can see which part of the car can be cut. What is

:26:25. > :26:31.happening now? They'll be using hydraulic equipment to release the

:26:32. > :26:36.doors and roof. It is all quite loud, isn't it. If you are actually

:26:37. > :26:38.a casualty, in the car at this moment, it must be quite

:26:39. > :26:44.intimidating. I'm feeling nervous now. How do you manage that

:26:45. > :26:47.situation? Well, the firefighters and paramedics will be working with

:26:48. > :26:50.therges explaining what will happen. Before we will bond with the

:26:51. > :26:54.casualty and that will calm them down and tell them what the process

:26:55. > :26:58.is around getting them out of the car. My gosh, it is serious stuff,

:26:59. > :27:04.isn't it? So what is happening then? The roof is now released. Now

:27:05. > :27:09.they'll, the last part where you are, where your head s and they'll

:27:10. > :27:14.walk the roof away, so we can gain access to the car and offer space.

:27:15. > :27:19.It takes a few people, doesn't it? Yes, we have two fire engines and a

:27:20. > :27:22.specialist appliance from the search and rescue team. You are talking

:27:23. > :27:26.about 20 people. 20 people. OK, the roof is finally off. Tony thanks

:27:27. > :27:32.very much. I tell you what, I'm glad to get out of that car. Now crash

:27:33. > :27:35.scenes like this, can also be crime scenes, Sergeant Paul, Mountford,

:27:36. > :27:38.tell me what happens, what is your role in this situation? For a scene

:27:39. > :27:41.like this, we would be looking to recover as much evidence as

:27:42. > :27:45.possible. Evidence outside the vehicle, such as marks on the road

:27:46. > :27:54.from the tyres and body work and day bri. Inside the vehicle, items such

:27:55. > :27:57.as mobile phone, empty drink containers or drug paraphernalia. It

:27:58. > :28:02.is important for you to work together.

:28:03. > :28:04.Back to you, Rav. Now time to look at today's Wanted

:28:05. > :28:07.Faces. First up today is this man,

:28:08. > :28:09.Stephen James Tierney. He was jailed for five-and-a-half

:28:10. > :28:11.years for supplying class A drugs and released from prison on licence

:28:12. > :28:14.in February last year. He hasn't stuck to the conditions

:28:30. > :28:32.Hungary for assaulting a 94-year-old-man and stealing his

:28:33. > :28:34.money and valuables. The victim was left with life

:28:35. > :28:36.threatening injuries. Mikes didn't stand around to be

:28:37. > :28:38.found guilty, though, This picture is a few years old and

:28:39. > :28:43.the 40-year-old is now balding. He's known to have been working

:28:44. > :28:46.at a meat factory in Bolton, This unhappy looking man

:28:47. > :28:50.is 26-year-old Craig Taylor. He was jailed for an aggravated

:28:51. > :28:53.burglary in which a group of school girls were threatened

:28:54. > :28:55.and cash stolen. He was released from prison

:28:56. > :28:58.on licence but has failed to stick to the strict conditions and is now

:28:59. > :29:00.wanted back in jail. Taylor has links to

:29:01. > :29:02.the Merseyside area. Finally, we have

:29:03. > :29:06.66-year-old Kumar Uddin. He was arrested by detectives

:29:23. > :29:38.are make sure you get in touch Next, until an attack of well-known

:29:39. > :29:44.local that happened in March earlier this year. Police are sharing new

:29:45. > :29:54.information with the hope viewers can help. DC Michael Mason joins us

:29:55. > :29:59.now. This is a targeted attack on Mr David Moores which took place on

:30:00. > :30:04.Wednesday the 7th of March this year. He was home alone watching the

:30:05. > :30:11.Liverpool against Manchester City foot ball match when at 8:45pm he

:30:12. > :30:15.was attacked by two masked intruders in his address. We have CCTV footage

:30:16. > :30:20.of the men outside the property and this is the first time we have seen

:30:21. > :30:24.it. Yes, they are looking around the property before forcing entry using

:30:25. > :30:29.the crowbars. Once inside they subject David Moores to a sustained

:30:30. > :30:33.attack, taking him upstairs and locked him in a bathroom and leave

:30:34. > :30:37.him bleeding heavily from his injuries before stealing items of

:30:38. > :30:42.property. What do we know about the suspects? They are wearing

:30:43. > :30:49.balaclavas and sportswear. He described them as white males, one

:30:50. > :30:58.spoke with a Northwest accent. The second offender is employing

:30:59. > :31:03.subterfuge is, while trying to speak with an East European accent, but

:31:04. > :31:10.disguising a Merseyside accent. He suffered a fractured cheekbone, two

:31:11. > :31:17.fractured ankles and extensive ruse into his arms and legs. They stole

:31:18. > :31:25.?7,000 worth of cash and high-value items of jewellery and watches. In

:31:26. > :31:30.particular, and Richard Neal Jens skull watch which has a distinctive

:31:31. > :31:37.face. We are appealing for anyone who has information to get in touch.

:31:38. > :31:49.Take one last look at the CTV. They have tried to hide their identities.

:31:50. > :31:52.Next, back to Merseyside were police need your help to find a callous

:31:53. > :31:56.thief who tricked his way into a pensioner's home and stole his

:31:57. > :32:03.savings. It has been a hard year for

:32:04. > :32:09.87-year-old Arthur car. His wife, Rita, who really cared for for

:32:10. > :32:27.almost 20 years died last summer. I loved her. She was great. Never had

:32:28. > :32:33.any problems, no fallouts. If we had a tiff, before we went to bed, it

:32:34. > :32:39.was all subtle. It was great, she was a great girl. He did everything

:32:40. > :32:44.for his wife, cooking, cleaning. I have never heard anybody say

:32:45. > :32:52.anything about Arthur, because he has always done for everybody else.

:32:53. > :32:57.He is just that sort of man. After was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer

:32:58. > :33:04.just days after his wife, Rita, passed away. But he has remained was

:33:05. > :33:09.a tip, taking strength from his close friends and neighbours. I have

:33:10. > :33:19.always been happy. Always something going on. I wouldn't swap it. I

:33:20. > :33:24.wouldn't move from here. But his faith in others has now been shaken,

:33:25. > :33:37.after he received an unexpected visitor in April. I was sat on the

:33:38. > :33:44.sofa and the doorbell rang. I went and answered the door. This young

:33:45. > :33:50.lad, about 23, 24 said, I am doing a survey. There has been a few

:33:51. > :33:58.blockages in the area, can recheck your drains. Yes, come on in. Any

:33:59. > :34:05.chance we can check the kitchen tap first?

:34:06. > :34:10.Yes. Went in the back door, opened the back door, he had gone down on

:34:11. > :34:16.his hands and knees and then he said, will you turned the cold water

:34:17. > :34:22.tap on. I turned it on and I could hear it running down the grid. Could

:34:23. > :34:31.you run the hot tap in the bathroom? Of course I can. Whilst Arthur was

:34:32. > :34:41.distracted, the bogus worker crept into his bedroom. He must have moved

:34:42. > :34:49.really quick. He was really quick. I was stood facing the sink. I

:34:50. > :34:53.couldn't see any movement. No shadows. When Arthur realised the

:34:54. > :35:00.man had left the house, his heart sank. I went straight to the

:35:01. > :35:06.bedroom, to the wardrobe and the security box was in there. His cash

:35:07. > :35:17.box which contained thousands of pounds and his rank cards, was

:35:18. > :35:23.missing. Where has he gone, why me? You start reminiscing about why

:35:24. > :35:30.didn't I put it somewhere else. Distraught, after decided to take

:35:31. > :35:36.matters into his own hands, and went looking for the thief who had taken

:35:37. > :35:46.his savings. I run out, went to the back, there was no sign of him. I

:35:47. > :35:50.wasn't quick enough. I found out he had actually got on his scooter to

:35:51. > :36:00.go and see if he could find this person. I think he thought he could

:36:01. > :36:07.deal with this himself. I think it has shaken him up really bad.

:36:08. > :36:14.Because he always sees the good in people, after. I think this has

:36:15. > :36:22.probably made him think everybody isn't nice. Arthur has a message for

:36:23. > :36:32.the man who stole from him. One day you will get old and you realise

:36:33. > :36:40.what you have done. I have got all my family and friends. They tell me

:36:41. > :36:49.if I want anything, I can just pick the phone up. Pour off, this has

:36:50. > :36:53.affected him. We have DC Ian Wise with more information. The man who

:36:54. > :36:58.tricked him, what do we know? We're looking for a white man in his early

:36:59. > :37:03.20s, about five feet four inches, spoke with a soft Liverpool accent,

:37:04. > :37:11.with dark clothing and a dark baseball cap. There was another man

:37:12. > :37:15.involved? Yes, the cash taken contained a bank card Amat was used

:37:16. > :37:23.at an Asda shop in Chadderton in Manchester. The time travel between

:37:24. > :37:26.Liverpool and Manchester is considerable, so we believe they

:37:27. > :37:31.were working together. If you do have any information on this case,

:37:32. > :37:37.we want to provide some answers for Arthur, get in touch with us, the

:37:38. > :37:40.details are on your screen. For years, Durie 's have visited the

:37:41. > :37:44.scenes of major crimes to help them reach a verdict. But researchers at

:37:45. > :37:49.Staffordshire University will help their latest work with virtually

:37:50. > :37:58.reality technology could transform the way evidence is presented in

:37:59. > :38:02.court. Caroline, what is this fascinating bit of kit? It is a

:38:03. > :38:10.virtual reality headset. Essentially, it is a collaborative

:38:11. > :38:20.project. We are looking at new ways of recording and present crime

:38:21. > :38:26.scenes to juries in court. We have photographs, it is inputted into a

:38:27. > :38:32.computer to create a 3-D model. Then it is put into the virtual reality

:38:33. > :38:40.headset. If a juror was wearing this, it essentially would transport

:38:41. > :38:46.them to the crime scene. Simon, put the headset on. While he is doing

:38:47. > :38:53.that, what will he be seeing now? Simon is now in our virtual crime

:38:54. > :38:59.scene, so he can walk around the space, he can look around and see

:39:00. > :39:03.there is drug paraphernalia, crime scene markers. What it is allowing

:39:04. > :39:08.him to do is see the evidence in the place where it was found and get a

:39:09. > :39:13.sense of the space. A pick share paints a thousand words, so he can

:39:14. > :39:19.get a sense of where this crime happen. He's having a good look

:39:20. > :39:24.around because he can see all levels. Looking up, looking down.

:39:25. > :39:32.You can actually go from room to room as well? Absolutely, move him

:39:33. > :39:36.through into the bedroom. Very, very clear. That is what strikes me

:39:37. > :39:44.straightaway, how clear the image is. It is not like a computer to me,

:39:45. > :39:47.it is like real life? It is a totally immersive experience, says

:39:48. > :39:51.Simon will feel like he is there and walk around the room. It is the

:39:52. > :39:56.closest thing to taking him out to the crime scene, which is what

:39:57. > :40:01.happens, juror 's are transported to a crime scene, which is

:40:02. > :40:07.time-consuming. Yes, very stressful as well. I am going to have a go

:40:08. > :40:13.myself, Caroline. I want to see for myself what it looks like. Tell me

:40:14. > :40:18.what I am looking at. What you can see is the bedroom. If a crime had

:40:19. > :40:24.happened in this space coming can see where the crime scene markers

:40:25. > :40:30.are. I can see them. This is really clear, paraphernalia as well. I am

:40:31. > :40:35.pointing, to me it makes sense. It is fascinating, you have had

:40:36. > :40:39.interest of national organisations? Yes, interest from the police,

:40:40. > :40:44.scenes of crime officers from Staffordshire Police have used it

:40:45. > :40:48.and we are hoping more police forces will adopt this over the coming

:40:49. > :40:53.year. We hope it will be useful to the police and barristers when they

:40:54. > :41:00.are preparing their cases. Thank you very much for joining us. Michelle.

:41:01. > :41:06.The fire and rescue team here have another secret weapon and that is

:41:07. > :41:13.animals like Belle, a four-year-old Labrador. She was involved in an

:41:14. > :41:17.impressive rescue, what happened? She was one of the search dogs that

:41:18. > :41:22.helped locate the worker trapped under thousands of tonnes of rubble

:41:23. > :41:31.in a factory in Shropshire. She used her power of scent to sniff him out?

:41:32. > :41:36.Yes. It is amazing, and we have some footage, he came out alive and

:41:37. > :41:42.unscathed? Yes, you was lucky, the dog located where he was and we were

:41:43. > :41:47.able to get him out. Shall we set Belle so she can do a search. She is

:41:48. > :41:50.looking for somebody trapped in the rubble. She will be sniffing around

:41:51. > :41:58.to try to find somebody? Yes, she will be used to send and locate the

:41:59. > :42:03.casualty and when she has found them, she will bark to alert. The

:42:04. > :42:07.training must be extensive? It is, you need a dog willing to work on

:42:08. > :42:13.their own and is confident. She seems very confident and happy. She

:42:14. > :42:17.is happy ever there, and found are missing person.

:42:18. > :42:23.Impressive stuff. Now I look at what has been coming in. Information on

:42:24. > :42:26.the attempted armed robbery on the post office in Ecclestone we showed

:42:27. > :42:31.you earlier. Officers are looking into that. We showed you the case of

:42:32. > :42:34.the pregnant woman and her partner attacked in their own home in

:42:35. > :42:39.Rochdale. Police are chasing up a number of enquiries, including

:42:40. > :42:43.someone and the owner of the Mercedes car seen in the area.

:42:44. > :42:51.Michelle, where are you going to be tomorrow? Tomorrow I will be in

:42:52. > :42:55.Salford, where the community are fighting against crime and organised

:42:56. > :43:01.gangs. I will also be with Manchester's travel save unit where

:43:02. > :43:08.officers are looking out for fare dodgers jarring a special dance, it

:43:09. > :43:13.is called the pocket shuffle. Sounds intriguing. More details about the

:43:14. > :43:18.crimes on this programme go to our website. But this is another look at

:43:19. > :43:26.the wanted phases. If they look familiar, pick up the phone and tell

:43:27. > :43:32.us where they are. -- Wanted Faces. We are back again tomorrow, goodbye.
