:00:00. > :00:08.It's the final show of the week and we're hoping that,
:00:09. > :00:10.with your help, we can bring some criminals to justice.
:00:11. > :00:16.The masked gang who attacked an eight-year-old-girl
:00:17. > :00:22.Walking up them stairs, I feared the worst.
:00:23. > :00:25.I thought I was going to find them dead.
:00:26. > :00:28.And I'm with the Marine Rescue Unit in Liverpool finding out how
:00:29. > :00:59.Live for the next 45 minutes, you're watching Crimewatch Roadshow.
:01:00. > :01:01.Hello and welcome to Crimewatch Roadshow.
:01:02. > :01:04.As always, we need your help to solve the crimes
:01:05. > :01:13.I take to two wheels to see how police cope when their peaceful
:01:14. > :01:20.I can really see with so many twists and turns in the road,
:01:21. > :01:27.how even experienced riders could quite easily get caught out.
:01:28. > :01:30.And the increase in animal cruelty - how this dog survived one
:01:31. > :01:36.of the worst cases of brutality the RSPCA has ever seen.
:01:37. > :01:38.Today, Michelle is on the water in Liverpool -
:01:39. > :01:55.I am with Merseyside's Fire and Rescue team, at their floating
:01:56. > :02:01.station. They work hard to keep this stretch of water safe 365 days a
:02:02. > :02:03.year and cover miles of coastline and later I will see how they train
:02:04. > :02:05.in a dramatic river rescue. But now it's time for our first
:02:06. > :02:09.appeal and we need your help catch the armed gang who broke
:02:10. > :02:23.into a family home and attacked I dropped everything and ran out of
:02:24. > :02:33.the door, jumped into my car and got here as quickly as possible. I
:02:34. > :02:42.feared the worst. What is this called? He is the famous one. Family
:02:43. > :02:46.man and pub manager Stephen Hughes lives with his wife Kellianne who
:02:47. > :02:55.remarried last year and his eight-year-old stepdaughter Olivia.
:02:56. > :03:00.-- who he married. One evening in Fabry he went to work on a charity
:03:01. > :03:04.single he'd worked on in his spare time. We had been working on a
:03:05. > :03:10.Hillsborough charity single and put the final touches to it. He let
:03:11. > :03:18.Kellianne getting Olivia ready for bed. I was expecting to be out an
:03:19. > :03:24.hour, maybe two hours. Not long after he left, Steven received a
:03:25. > :03:29.call from his wife. Hello. Obviously very upset, saying she could hear
:03:30. > :03:34.noises. Coming from downstairs. She was upstairs with Olivia, saying
:03:35. > :03:41.somebody was getting in the house. From the tone of her voice I could
:03:42. > :03:48.tell it was serious. Three intruders had broken into the
:03:49. > :03:51.house. Kellianne saw them from the landing and, terrified, barricaded
:03:52. > :04:01.herself and her daughter into the bathroom. As the men came up the
:04:02. > :04:06.stairs in pursuit. They pushed the door open, grabbed hold of her,
:04:07. > :04:10.punched her in the head. He had a knife in his hand. As the attack
:04:11. > :04:15.continued the men demanded money and jewellery. By this time, Stephen and
:04:16. > :04:25.his friend were rushing back to the house. What would normally be an
:04:26. > :04:31.eight minute journey, we banished are doing three, four minutes. When
:04:32. > :04:36.he got home, one of the intruders was lurking in the driveway. A man
:04:37. > :04:43.ran out of the house with a axe and ran towards me and he went to throw
:04:44. > :04:52.it and then he feigned to throw it again and swung it at me. And then
:04:53. > :04:56.ran off into the other direction. In his desperation to find Kellianne
:04:57. > :05:01.and Olivia, Stephen rushed into the house. I opened the door and
:05:02. > :05:07.screamed for Kellianne and Olivia and there was no answer. I am
:05:08. > :05:11.walking up the stairs. I feared the worst. I thought I would find them
:05:12. > :05:19.dead. That feeling will live with me a very long time. Eventually,
:05:20. > :05:27.Stephen found Kellianne and Olivia at a neighbour's house, hiding under
:05:28. > :05:33.the table. Olivia was hysterical, crying, shaking from head to toe,
:05:34. > :05:39.and so was Kellianne. Thankfully, none of the family was seriously
:05:40. > :05:43.injured, but they have -- there has been devastating consequences. I
:05:44. > :05:49.have been left with an overwhelming sense of I should have been there.
:05:50. > :05:54.To be there and help them in their time of need. But that is something
:05:55. > :06:00.I have got to live with. Kellianne and Olivia were diagnosed with
:06:01. > :06:06.post-traumatic stress disorder. Olivia has gone from a
:06:07. > :06:11.happy-go-lucky, outgoing child, to quite introverted at times, pretty
:06:12. > :06:18.much a nervous wreck. She is terrified to be on her own. She has
:06:19. > :06:23.hiding places in the house. Just a mention of the incident, she breaks
:06:24. > :06:30.down crying. I am nervous night and day in case they come back or
:06:31. > :06:35.someone else comes. I am 100% certain there are people out there
:06:36. > :06:38.who know who is responsible. The people who destroyed a child's life,
:06:39. > :06:42.which we are struggling to rebuild. With me now is Detective Inspector
:06:43. > :06:55.Jason Pye from Merseyside Police. The level of violence used during
:06:56. > :07:02.this burglary was seriously distressing. It was distressing to
:07:03. > :07:06.the family. Weapons were used, a child was assaulted, so we are keen
:07:07. > :07:11.to speak to anybody who can give us information in relation to the
:07:12. > :07:14.offence. We hope people who do not normally come forward with
:07:15. > :07:19.information, after seeing the extent of this burglary, they will.
:07:20. > :07:23.Definitely, we have an innocent woman and child in their home. These
:07:24. > :07:28.two people have attacked them with weapons. We would ask anybody to
:07:29. > :07:35.search their conscience and talk to us and help us identify those
:07:36. > :07:39.responsible. The CCTV highlights the level of violence. The CCTV is
:07:40. > :07:44.captured from the front of the home and you see Stephen arrive home and
:07:45. > :07:49.he is confronted by an offender, brandishing a axe towards him. It is
:07:50. > :07:59.horrendous, you can see, and I would ask anyone to look at the images and
:08:00. > :08:02.if you can tell us who the axe man is to give us information. They took
:08:03. > :08:05.items including a wedding ring, engagement ring, a handbag, and we
:08:06. > :08:10.are keen to trace the items. This has affected the family, especially
:08:11. > :08:15.Kellianne and Olivia, who have suffered post-traumatic stress. The
:08:16. > :08:19.child was eight of the time and witness this in her home, but I
:08:20. > :08:20.would want to reassure the public this type of offences thankfully
:08:21. > :08:21.rare. It's vital that these
:08:22. > :08:26.thugs are caught. So if you have any information
:08:27. > :08:30.at all, please get in touch. Now for some more
:08:31. > :08:43.criminals caught on CCTV. It is just before Christmas last
:08:44. > :08:48.year when this bloke enters an off-licence in Bolton, but he does
:08:49. > :08:52.not look like he is here to pick up festive drinks. He heads to the back
:08:53. > :08:57.and browses the shelves, or at least that is what he seems to be doing,
:08:58. > :09:01.but not for long. Instead he turns back in the direction of the counter
:09:02. > :09:08.and pulls out what appears to be a firearm. He heads over and threatens
:09:09. > :09:12.the shop assistant with the gun and demands cash, but the man at the
:09:13. > :09:17.tilt is not having any of it decides to refuse the gunman flat-out. The
:09:18. > :09:20.robber does not seem happy, but the shop assistant is not giving in
:09:21. > :09:26.easily and reaches down, grabbing bottles of water to throw at him. It
:09:27. > :09:36.is too much for the gunman and he legs it. Do you recognise this
:09:37. > :09:40.cowardly crooks? Us now. These two looked like they are joggers, but
:09:41. > :09:46.they are robbers. This one grabs a shop worker and drags her inside.
:09:47. > :09:49.Manhandling her to the floor, the master man has his sights on the
:09:50. > :09:55.safe and makes a run for it when he sees his partner coming up behind
:09:56. > :09:58.him. But they are not alone, another shop assistants saw them storming
:09:59. > :10:04.and sprints to the lockable toilets. The intruder hunts for the safe but
:10:05. > :10:08.now carries a knife he has picked up from the deli counter. The manager
:10:09. > :10:13.comes out to confront the master man, telling him to lead the team
:10:14. > :10:18.member alone. As the robber threatens the manager, he is
:10:19. > :10:21.interrupted by his accomplice, who is panicking, because he realises
:10:22. > :10:27.there are more people here than he thought. They make a run for it
:10:28. > :10:31.empty-handed, leaving the terrified workers behind. Police believe the
:10:32. > :10:38.crooks drove off in this vehicle, which could be a Vauxhall Corsa. If
:10:39. > :10:45.you know who they are, you know what to do.
:10:46. > :10:50.It is early morning and everyone is sound asleep in the house on the
:10:51. > :10:54.right. But these trendy two are wide awake. They have a sniff around but
:10:55. > :11:01.cannot get in. Then something catches their eye in the garden. He
:11:02. > :11:06.spots a bike behind the washing and gives his pal a nudge to get it.
:11:07. > :11:11.Over he goes, narrowly missing the sheets. Maybe they are just not his
:11:12. > :11:17.colour. Having cut the security chain he passes a ?1500 electric
:11:18. > :11:22.bike over the fence to his sidekick. Shame it does not have a working
:11:23. > :11:26.battery your seat, so they have to make the getaway on foot. If you
:11:27. > :11:28.recognise them, give us their names, not their labels.
:11:29. > :11:31.If you recognised anyone, now is the time to get in touch.
:11:32. > :11:33.The number is 08000 468999 and calls are free.
:11:34. > :11:39.Text CW, space and then your message.
:11:40. > :11:41.Texts will be charged at your standard message rate.
:11:42. > :12:01.I am at the floating fire station in Merseyside and I am joined by team
:12:02. > :12:07.leader Dan Daly and also Ronnie Duffy. It is not fires you mainly
:12:08. > :12:11.deal with, what do you do? We provide water rescue cover on the
:12:12. > :12:18.River Mersey, operating in a three-man crew on board a launch. I
:12:19. > :12:23.am on a jet ski, what are the advantages of using jet skis? It is
:12:24. > :12:25.speedier than the main launch we operate and they can operate in
:12:26. > :12:33.tight spaces. It has good manoeuvrability. For you, it is
:12:34. > :12:39.important you train well, because they are quite fast. They are, and
:12:40. > :12:45.we do go on training courses to operate on jet skis. We are swift
:12:46. > :12:50.water technicians. And Helms man. We are going to see a rescue operation
:12:51. > :13:12.in action. Ronnie, let's do it. They have identified the casualty in
:13:13. > :13:21.the water. Turn around, head to him. The rescue swimmer will locate the
:13:22. > :13:26.casualty. He will direct him to the rear side of the vessel. How do the
:13:27. > :13:34.jet skis and boat work together to rescue a casualty? These can get
:13:35. > :13:42.into tighter spaces than the boat. They are balanced vehicles. You can
:13:43. > :13:48.work in smaller drafts and they can get into tighter spaces. I concede
:13:49. > :13:53.they have put a rod in the water to rescue. In a typical rescue, are you
:13:54. > :13:59.overseeing to check everything is OK? We are here to assist. Talk me
:14:00. > :14:07.through what is happening. They will bring him around to the vessel, the
:14:08. > :14:13.deck is lowered, so it is easier to get the casualty onto the boat.
:14:14. > :14:18.Being on the river today, it is pretty choppy. Doing this quickly,
:14:19. > :14:27.when it is going up and down, I do not know how you do it, but you also
:14:28. > :14:32.have to be quick. The fast response vessels, if you need to send a
:14:33. > :14:36.rescue swimmer in, there is a rescue swimmer located on the boat. I am
:14:37. > :14:38.glad to see the casualties safely on-board. We will head back to the
:14:39. > :14:42.station. Hold on tight! Every summer, the Isle of Man sees
:14:43. > :14:45.thousands of visitors It's one of the most exciting
:14:46. > :14:49.road races in the world. But it's also one of the most
:14:50. > :14:52.dangerous and a really challenging Being a lover of motorbikes,
:14:53. > :14:56.I couldn't resist the opportunity to
:14:57. > :15:11.experience it for myself. The Isle of Man. A tranquil haven in
:15:12. > :15:14.the Irish Sea. But it is also the only place in Europe outside Germany
:15:15. > :15:22.where there are public roads without speed limits. And for one fortnight
:15:23. > :15:26.every summer, the place comes to life as thousands of motorbike
:15:27. > :15:28.fanatics arrives at the annual Isle of Man tourist Trophy, the world
:15:29. > :15:39.famous TT races. The island has hosted the TT for
:15:40. > :15:45.more than 100 years. As a biker myself getting to visit this place
:15:46. > :15:51.is a dream come true. Behind me there is the famous mountain area of
:15:52. > :15:54.the drug. That is where the roads are not restricted. There is no
:15:55. > :15:57.upper speed limit whatsoever. There is nothing I love more than getting
:15:58. > :16:06.out of a motorbike, so, let's see what she can do. -- on a motorbike.
:16:07. > :16:09.It is a public road for the rest of the year, which means ordinary
:16:10. > :16:22.riders like me can test their skills on a legendary surface. That ride
:16:23. > :16:26.was amazing. This is such a fantastic place to be on two wheels,
:16:27. > :16:31.but I can really see with so many twists and turns in the road how
:16:32. > :16:37.even experienced riders could quite easily get caught out. The race is
:16:38. > :16:41.widely considered to be the most dangerous on the planet. Over the
:16:42. > :16:47.past decade 32 riders have lost their lives on the course, including
:16:48. > :16:52.three this year alone. As well as a keen biker I'm also an ex-copper, so
:16:53. > :16:58.I wanted to find out how a police force of just 210 police officers
:16:59. > :17:06.manages such a high event. Gavin is head of operations during TT Races.
:17:07. > :17:12.You have a lot of people coming onto the island, how many could you
:17:13. > :17:15.expect? You could be looking at up to 40,000 for the racing period.
:17:16. > :17:19.There are lots of motorbikes on the road at this time. People are out
:17:20. > :17:23.going about their own business, but we have an influx of riders who want
:17:24. > :17:27.to go out and have a great time but some might be tempted to take it too
:17:28. > :17:33.far. How fast do people actually go on that stretch of road? Race speeds
:17:34. > :17:38.are coming up to 200 mph. There is no speed limit. Members of the
:17:39. > :17:43.public can go faster than 100 mph on occasions. It is bendy, why indeed,
:17:44. > :17:48.with drops, so if you don't know what you are doing there could be
:17:49. > :17:54.serious consequences. -- it is a bending, winding road with drops. It
:17:55. > :18:00.twists and turns its way around the island. While there is no upper
:18:01. > :18:05.speed limit on some of the island's roads, careless and dangerous
:18:06. > :18:14.driving rules still apply. Stephen Lapsley as head of the Road policing
:18:15. > :18:17.team and a key member of the TT operation. People think that they
:18:18. > :18:25.need to go as fast as they possibly can. It isn't that. There is just no
:18:26. > :18:31.upper speed limit. We do police with tolerance but if somebody steps over
:18:32. > :18:34.the mark we deal with them harshly. On an island were motorsport is
:18:35. > :18:38.cherished and the appeal of riding on roads without limits draws
:18:39. > :18:43.thousands of visitors every year, officers have had to adapt their
:18:44. > :18:46.tactics. We have to take a different approach to road safety. We couldn't
:18:47. > :18:50.just rely on enforcement. That would fail. We could hand out tickets like
:18:51. > :18:54.confetti but it wouldn't work. We find the best way to get the message
:18:55. > :19:00.across is talking to people, getting them to think about their riding and
:19:01. > :19:07.driving. But there is more to the TT van riding. Many people turn up.
:19:08. > :19:11.Come nightfall it is up to Gareth and Kirsty to keep an eye out for
:19:12. > :19:15.potential trouble on the streets. There is a lot of people out.
:19:16. > :19:19.They've been out all day. Having a good time. Had a few beers. It
:19:20. > :19:24.changes the dynamic of what happened in the evening. And it isn't long
:19:25. > :19:27.before officers spotted problem. A scuffle has broken out between two
:19:28. > :19:42.youths and they are forced to intervene. Calm down! Get down! Calm
:19:43. > :19:46.down, all right? He has been aggressive to another lad who came
:19:47. > :19:49.up to him. So he's been arrested on suspicion of a fairly low-level
:19:50. > :19:53.public order offence. Nobody has been injured. As long as he is calm
:19:54. > :20:04.now we will take him away from the area and arrest him.
:20:05. > :20:11.The TT races have come to an end for another year, and while some argue
:20:12. > :20:14.that the event puts lives at risk I've had an insight into how a small
:20:15. > :20:20.police force pulls off a truly staggering police operation.
:20:21. > :20:27.Nearly 40 years on, the tragic case of two schoolboy friends
:20:28. > :20:37.If I'd have kept him in, perhaps the kids would've been alive today.
:20:38. > :20:40.But I let him out because I was sorry for him and I wanted him
:20:41. > :20:44.And still on the loose, can you help track down convicted
:20:45. > :20:52.murderer Shaun Walmsley, who escaped from prison guards
:20:53. > :20:54.whilst on a hospital visit in February?
:20:55. > :20:57.But first, there's been a worrying increase in the number
:20:58. > :20:59.of reports of neglect and ill-treatment of animals.
:21:00. > :21:00.Last year, the RSPCA investigated almost 150,000
:21:01. > :21:03.I'm joined now by Superintendent Martyn Hubbard, who's
:21:04. > :21:16.from the charity and by Victor the Staffie.
:21:17. > :21:22.You believe that social media is adding to the number of incidents
:21:23. > :21:26.that are reported to you? We don't think the numbers of incidents have
:21:27. > :21:29.gone up, but there is a tendency for people to fill what they do and
:21:30. > :21:35.upload to social media site and people are reporting that back to
:21:36. > :21:40.us. We have an example of one. This image was on Instagram. What is
:21:41. > :21:43.happening here? We have a picture of some Badger baiters who have dug
:21:44. > :21:48.into a set, got the batter, then set the dogs onto the badger. They've
:21:49. > :21:54.uploaded the film and photographs onto Instagram. You can hear the
:21:55. > :21:58.comments on laughter from the perpetrators and you can hear the
:21:59. > :22:05.badger screaming in pain. They were prosecuted. They were. The footage
:22:06. > :22:09.was investigated. They were all given prison sentences and banned
:22:10. > :22:13.from keeping animals. Victor looks happy and healthy but unfortunately
:22:14. > :22:18.this is what he is now and not what he was before. We will show an image
:22:19. > :22:22.of when he came to your attention. I must warn you, this is a shocking
:22:23. > :22:28.picture which some may find upsetting. What is his story? We
:22:29. > :22:34.were called to a house. He had been given cocaine and had his ears cut
:22:35. > :22:39.off with just a pair of scissors. Unbelievable. They were on the floor
:22:40. > :22:42.when he went. That's right. The scissors and ears were found on the
:22:43. > :22:48.floor. Please tell me they got prosecuted. They did. The person who
:22:49. > :22:53.did this to Victor was given a prison sentence and a ban and a
:22:54. > :22:56.probation order. The law at the moment, it goes to a maximum of six
:22:57. > :23:02.months. Six months maximum imprisonment. In England. We would
:23:03. > :23:06.like to see that increased. In Northern Ireland it is up to five
:23:07. > :23:10.years. I think we all would agree with that. Neglect is also something
:23:11. > :23:16.you take seriously. A very disturbing image that some may find
:23:17. > :23:19.upsetting. Tell me about this dog. When people take animals on their
:23:20. > :23:25.take on the responsibility to feed the animal. This dog has clearly
:23:26. > :23:29.been staffed. That is probably a more common incident that we come
:23:30. > :23:33.across than deliberate cruelty. But it is terrible for the animals. And
:23:34. > :23:38.it is something you take seriously. You are open to all avenues, whether
:23:39. > :23:42.it is education of people, advice, but ultimately you will prosecute if
:23:43. > :23:47.you need to. That is the last resort. We would rather give advice
:23:48. > :23:53.and head off the treatment, rather than catching them doing it. Lovely

:23:56. > :23:56.cruelty line. That number for the RSPCA cruelty

:24:03. > :24:08.after he went on the run, Merseyside Police are still on the hunt
:24:09. > :24:12.for a dangerous escaped prisoner. Shaun Walmsley was serving
:24:13. > :24:16.a minimum 30-year sentence for murder when he fled prison
:24:17. > :24:19.custody in February. Detective Sergeant Holly Chance
:24:20. > :24:34.from Merseyside Police Talk us through the escape. On
:24:35. > :24:38.February 21 he attended Aintree Hospital for examination after
:24:39. > :24:42.complaining of symptoms in relation to a serious illness. Whilst police
:24:43. > :24:47.guard back to the vehicle two males armed with a knife and a gun forced
:24:48. > :24:52.his release. They made a getaway in a distinctive gold Volvo. It sounds
:24:53. > :24:56.like it was preplanned and he had help. We think it was thoroughly
:24:57. > :25:00.well-planned. He had help from a lot of people. He lost a lot of weight
:25:01. > :25:04.in order to convince police officers that he -- prison officers that he
:25:05. > :25:08.was unwell and needed to attend hospital. Due to his change in
:25:09. > :25:13.appearance this has helped him evade his capture. What progress have you
:25:14. > :25:17.made? We have made a number of arrests. Of people who we believe
:25:18. > :25:21.assisted in the plot of the escape. Only last week a fellow gang member
:25:22. > :25:27.was arrested in Spain and a large quantity of cash was recovered.
:25:28. > :25:33.We've also recovered ?125,000 from suspects which we believe is linked
:25:34. > :25:39.to his criminal activity. Shaun is still at large. What do you want
:25:40. > :25:44.from people? Information on his whereabouts, or his movements since
:25:45. > :25:48.February. This image shows him prior to his weight loss. And the CCTV
:25:49. > :25:54.stills from the hospital gives you an idea of what he looked like prior
:25:55. > :25:57.to the escape. However, he is a highly dangerous and violent
:25:58. > :26:01.individual. I urge members of the public not approaching. Should they
:26:02. > :26:08.cite this mail they should contact the police. And there is a reward?
:26:09. > :26:14.There is, for any person who has information on him and leads to us
:26:15. > :26:19.capturing him. -- should they sight this male they should contact the
:26:20. > :26:20.police. Thanks very much. This guy is very dangerous
:26:21. > :26:22.and needs to be caught. If you can help bring him back
:26:23. > :26:25.to justice get in touch. And remember, you can also speak
:26:26. > :26:27.to Crimestoppers anonymously. Now, most of us wouldn't think
:26:28. > :26:35.of handing over our bank details But after an elaborate
:26:36. > :26:39.and cruel hoax that took place over a few days,
:26:40. > :26:41.that's exactly what our next couple Alan and Joyce Phillips did
:26:42. > :26:44.when they fell victim to what's I'm also joined by Jacqui Mackay
:26:45. > :26:58.of Thames Valley Police. Good morning to you all. From the
:26:59. > :27:03.investigation point of view can you tell us what happened. Mr and Mrs
:27:04. > :27:08.Phillips received a number of phone calls from someone purporting to be
:27:09. > :27:12.from their bank, asking them if they had received their replacement bank
:27:13. > :27:18.cards. They never requested any. Several phone calls later
:27:19. > :27:24.arrangements were then made for a career to attend their home address
:27:25. > :27:33.and bank cards were exchanged. -- then made for a courier ten. Over
:27:34. > :27:39.the next few days they spent nearly ?57,000 worth of their savings. When
:27:40. > :27:44.did you actually know that this was not your bank, that it was a scam?
:27:45. > :27:52.We needed some money out on the Monday. The scan happened on the
:27:53. > :27:57.Saturday. I went to Lloyds bank and presented the new cards. This is
:27:58. > :28:03.what the so-called courier gave you? Yes. I said I needed some money out.
:28:04. > :28:06.The girl looked at the card, because they were a different colour, and
:28:07. > :28:13.she said, hang on, I'll have to check this. She came back and said,
:28:14. > :28:17.Mr Phillips, you have been scammed. Words you will never forget, I'm
:28:18. > :28:21.sure. And you were out shopping at the time, Joyce, what was it like
:28:22. > :28:25.for you when you found out all of your life savings were now in the
:28:26. > :28:31.hands of complete strangers? I just could not believe it at first. It
:28:32. > :28:39.takes a lot for it to sink in. The amount. Shellshocked. I was. Clearly
:28:40. > :28:48.we need to catch who is responsible. What do we know about the people? We
:28:49. > :28:53.have various CCTV clips. Let's take a look. These are people who are of
:28:54. > :28:59.interest to you. Yes, the female with the sunglasses on her head has
:29:00. > :29:04.been identified as the courier who collected the bank cards. She has
:29:05. > :29:09.been seen with the mail in the cap. Spending a large amount of cash.
:29:10. > :29:16.Yes, in Jessop and other locations in London. They are on camera. We
:29:17. > :29:20.have another clip of some individuals you want to chase. The
:29:21. > :29:31.next day these three males were seen in Costco in Hayes and Sunbury. They
:29:32. > :29:34.spent ?15,000. They were using a car. You have the details of the
:29:35. > :29:42.car. You are appealing to anybody who knows this. The males were seen
:29:43. > :29:52.leaving Costco in Hayes in this vehicle. I would like any
:29:53. > :29:57.information regarding that vehicle. I'm so sorry this happened to you.
:29:58. > :30:00.It is worth saying, actually, that banks have told us they would never
:30:01. > :30:04.ask for your PIN number over the phone. That's good advice if anybody
:30:05. > :30:08.has a similar scam. But we need to find out who these people are. If
:30:09. > :30:10.you can help today please get in touch.
:30:11. > :30:12.We're really hoping you can help us with our next,
:30:13. > :30:17.The tragic murder of two schoolboys nearly four decades ago.
:30:18. > :30:19.Can you help their families finally get the justice
:30:20. > :30:46.On Saturday, August 16, 1980, two school friends went out to play.
:30:47. > :30:52.They never came back. John Greenwood and Gary Miller were 11 years old in
:30:53. > :30:56.the summer of 1980 and living in the Whiston area of Liverpool. He was
:30:57. > :31:03.just an ordinary in 11-year-old boy. He loved to go down to the woods,
:31:04. > :31:08.playing, fishing, playing football. A bit quiet, really, a bit of a shy
:31:09. > :31:14.boy. Little things they did together. They would go out and get
:31:15. > :31:21.mother's dei daffodils. They would collect bottles to get muddy
:31:22. > :31:29.together. They were just normal 11-year-old children. They did
:31:30. > :31:35.nobody any harm. It was just after the football results had been on the
:31:36. > :31:40.television and he put his arms up saying yes, Liverpool, 3-1. Then he
:31:41. > :31:45.said can I go out? I will go and knock for Gary. On that day Gary had
:31:46. > :31:52.been naughty and his dad said he had to stay in and when John calls and
:31:53. > :31:57.said he cannot go out. But I relented, to my... If I had kept him
:31:58. > :32:00.in, perhaps the kids would have been alive today, but I let him out
:32:01. > :32:05.because I was sorry for him and I wanted him to go out and play. The
:32:06. > :32:12.next minute, Gary Knox and I heard John said, she has let you out, has
:32:13. > :32:18.she? He said I'm going out, ma'am. I said goodbye. They went out. There
:32:19. > :32:25.were several sightings of the boys after they had left Raleigh Avenue
:32:26. > :32:29.that afternoon. They moved into Whiston village and walked across
:32:30. > :32:35.the car park at what was then the horseshoe public house and crossed
:32:36. > :32:40.over Windy arbour Road and went behind mouldings to Whiston Labour
:32:41. > :32:47.club, where they were playing, kicking tin cans, playing on the
:32:48. > :32:53.fire escape. The boys finally entered an abandoned colliery, now
:32:54. > :33:04.known as part, which was being used as a tip. -- it is now a park.
:33:05. > :33:14.At around 7:30pm, a local dog walker was passing where the boys had been
:33:15. > :33:19.playing. He looked across and from 100 yards he saw a male acting
:33:20. > :33:24.suspiciously. The mail is described as having dark hair, swept back, and
:33:25. > :33:31.was wearing a brown jacket. When the man saw the dog walker, he walked
:33:32. > :33:38.away. Curious, the dog walker went to where he had seen the man. It was
:33:39. > :33:46.here he found the boys lying injured. He ran down this path to
:33:47. > :33:50.local houses where he raised the alarm. In a short time the ambulance
:33:51. > :34:02.was here and it took the boys to hospital. The boys died of their
:34:03. > :34:06.injuries. A murder investigation was launched. The case attracted huge
:34:07. > :34:15.media attention, with police are appealing for anyone with
:34:16. > :34:22.information. But 37 years after, the killer has still not been found. In
:34:23. > :34:29.October last year, police reopened the investigation into their deaths.
:34:30. > :34:31.We understand it must have been an extremely traumatic event for the
:34:32. > :34:39.families and we are trying to provide them with closure. For John
:34:40. > :34:45.and Gary's families, the agony of that day is as fresh as ever. You do
:34:46. > :34:49.not think of murder. You do not think of anybody hurting children.
:34:50. > :34:57.There was not an awful lot of crime around the village at the time. We
:34:58. > :35:03.feel like we let the boys down. They have never had justice, like it had
:35:04. > :35:08.been an accident, that they had just gone out to play and never came
:35:09. > :35:10.back. He deliberately left them to die, and I cannot get that out of my
:35:11. > :35:14.head. Very, very upsetting. Well, joining us now
:35:15. > :35:18.is DCI John Middleton, who is reinvestigating the boys'
:35:19. > :35:31.murder and also Debbie Lewis, Thank you for coming today. John, it
:35:32. > :35:36.has been 37 years, what information are you appealing for today? We are
:35:37. > :35:40.keen to trace two boys assaulted a Whiston health centre about a month
:35:41. > :35:46.before the murder and a young boy who ran up a garden path asking for
:35:47. > :35:50.help in Whiston two weeks before the murder. We would like to speak to
:35:51. > :35:55.anybody who went to school with John and Gary, or where in the first
:35:56. > :36:04.Whiston Scout Troop with them and we would like to speak to a lad by the
:36:05. > :36:09.name of Duffy, who was with the boys before they were murdered. He was
:36:10. > :36:15.writing a yellow chopper bike and we would like to speak to him. We heard
:36:16. > :36:21.the mothers in the film. Tell me the impact it has had on both families.
:36:22. > :36:27.It has been a huge impact. I have grown up seeing my parents suffer
:36:28. > :36:32.with this. My mum, so terrified that she could lose one of us, and my
:36:33. > :36:38.dad, so frustrated and angry that whoever did this has got away with
:36:39. > :36:44.it thus far. You have set up a Facebook group to help get justice,
:36:45. > :36:48.what has the response been like? Fantastic. I always felt there were
:36:49. > :36:56.people out there with information and they just needed to be asked.
:36:57. > :36:59.And when a reporter got in touch with us in August we decided to go
:37:00. > :37:05.for a campaign and got a few thousand members within a few weeks.
:37:06. > :37:09.Now we have over 7000 and they have been supportive. If there are people
:37:10. > :37:14.watching who have information, what would be your message? I would say
:37:15. > :37:19.please, please come forward, whatever has been on your mind maybe
:37:20. > :37:25.all these years, a B you have heard something, come forward and help,
:37:26. > :37:30.because we need your help and we need to get peace for the families,
:37:31. > :37:31.to get the truth and some closure. Thank you very much. We appreciate
:37:32. > :37:34.you coming on the show today. Now it's time for a look
:37:35. > :37:37.at today's Wanted Faces. This is Steven Kostas
:37:38. > :37:39.Kimpriktzis - he also calls He was jailed for two years
:37:40. > :37:43.for actual bodily harm But he hasn't stuck to the condition
:37:44. > :37:48.of his release and is now wanted The 40-year-old has links
:37:49. > :37:50.to Liverpool, Lancashire His upper teeth are missing
:37:51. > :37:58.and he has a deformed right finger. Detectives wish to speak to him
:37:59. > :38:03.about a conspiracy to steal He has an Indian accent and links
:38:04. > :38:09.to Hounslow in west London. Detectives would like to question
:38:10. > :38:18.him about burglaries at homes, where the owners' car
:38:19. > :38:20.keys were stolen and Nee is 30 and has links
:38:21. > :38:25.to the St Helens and Dovecot Officers from Thames Valley Police
:38:26. > :38:30.would like to question him about a burglary
:38:31. > :38:35.at a house in Banbury. The 33-year-old has a birth mark
:38:36. > :38:38.on the left side of his neck and links to Basingstoke,
:38:39. > :38:39.Yeovil, Milton Keynes, If you know where any of these faces
:38:40. > :38:48.are, make sure you get in touch Earlier in the programme,
:38:49. > :38:53.I took part in a water-rescue training exercise
:38:54. > :38:54.with Merseyside's But last year, a group of heroic
:38:55. > :39:00.police officers from the nearly But last year, a group of heroic
:39:01. > :39:03.police officers from the Smithdown Road area of Liverpool
:39:04. > :39:10.pulled off the real thing. One of the officers involved was
:39:11. > :39:15.Steve McAllister. I believe you have a phobia of water, so how did that
:39:16. > :39:20.work out? Not great, it is not a phobia of water, to be honest, if on
:39:21. > :39:26.holiday I like the water but I did not fancy murky water. This was last
:39:27. > :39:30.November. You and a group of officers waded into freezing water
:39:31. > :39:38.to try to rescue a man trapped in his car. I was on patrol and was
:39:39. > :39:43.made aware of the stolen vehicle in the area. I located the vehicle.
:39:44. > :39:48.Before we had a chance to stop it safely it took off at speed which
:39:49. > :39:54.resulted in a pursuit, quite high speed at times, or 140 miles at
:39:55. > :39:58.times on the motorway. We managed to sting the vehicle and deflate the
:39:59. > :40:04.tyres, but it had little effect with a certain type of tyre where you can
:40:05. > :40:13.keep going. For what ever reason, he drove into a big body of open water.
:40:14. > :40:20.You can see the car in the dam. Talk us through what happened. Where the
:40:21. > :40:26.vehicle is situated, it is quite a distance from the edge. It is pitch
:40:27. > :40:31.black, the camera does not show how dark it is. You can hear the
:40:32. > :40:35.gentleman screaming and shouting for help. He has panicked and is
:40:36. > :40:41.struggling to get out. Did you know how dangerous this was? Knowing the
:40:42. > :40:46.location, I knew the dam. It is deep in parts and I knew he was in
:40:47. > :40:51.trouble and given his demeanour, how he was screaming, I knew he was
:40:52. > :40:55.struggling to get out. You can see from the footage, his legs are
:40:56. > :41:00.dangling at one point and then he goes back into the car. He was
:41:01. > :41:05.trying to get out. He was panicked, in trouble in the vehicle in that
:41:06. > :41:09.position. Being a sports car the window is small and he is quite a
:41:10. > :41:15.large build and struggle to get out. How did you get him out? The vehicle
:41:16. > :41:19.went completely submerged and it was clear he would not get himself out.
:41:20. > :41:25.Myself and colleagues got into the water and located the vehicle by the
:41:26. > :41:29.rear lights and managed to open the boot and drag him through the centre
:41:30. > :41:35.of the vehicle. What was going through your head, were you in
:41:36. > :41:39.autopilot? Definitely, if I was not on autopilot I do not think I would
:41:40. > :41:44.have got in. Your training kicks in. You just need to get in and get him
:41:45. > :41:50.safe. It is after the event the emotions come. Looking back, whether
:41:51. > :41:55.I would get in the area again, I don't think I would. You are spurred
:41:56. > :42:00.on by your colleagues. I was one five, I was not on my own doing it.
:42:01. > :42:02.It was incredibly brave and hopefully the man has learned his
:42:03. > :42:08.lesson. Fantastic work. Time now for a look at what's been
:42:09. > :42:16.coming in on the calls. We asked the help yesterday after a
:42:17. > :42:22.concrete slab was thrown through the window of a tram injuring the
:42:23. > :42:27.driver. We are following up -- detectives said they are following
:42:28. > :42:31.up names as a matter of urgency. And also yesterday cash robbery in
:42:32. > :42:34.Newton Heath in Manchester, they are keen to hear from anyone who may
:42:35. > :42:35.recognise this man and motorcycle passenger.
:42:36. > :42:38.We're back on Monday for the start of our final week.
:42:39. > :42:41.Sadly, Michelle, today was you last day with us.
:42:42. > :42:44.Yes, Tina Daheley takes over next week, starting in Birmingham.
:42:45. > :42:49.She'll be with West Midlands Police's cannabis disposal team.
:42:50. > :42:52.They've got the dangerous job of clearing up illegal cannabis
:42:53. > :42:56.farms and making sure none of the equipment can be reused.
:42:57. > :42:58.But for me, yes that's the end of my Roadshow
:42:59. > :43:12.It has been amazing and seeing the teams in action has been inspiring.
:43:13. > :43:14.Good luck next week, I will be watching. Thanks. We will miss you.
:43:15. > :43:16.For more details about the crimes on today's
:43:17. > :43:19.Before we go, here's another look at this morning's wanted faces.
:43:20. > :43:24.If any of them look familiar, get in touch and tell us where they are.
