Neighbourhood policing's come a long way since Dixon Of Dock Green. | 0:00:02 | 0:00:05 | |
Good evening, all. | 0:00:05 | 0:00:07 | |
From inner-city estates to suburbia, this new | 0:00:07 | 0:00:09 | |
generation of community police officers are on the front line. | 0:00:09 | 0:00:13 | |
Their aim is to develop a stronger bond with the community, | 0:00:15 | 0:00:18 | |
crack down on the crimes taking place on your doorstep | 0:00:18 | 0:00:22 | |
and formulate fast action plans to take down the criminals. | 0:00:22 | 0:00:26 | |
-I said no. -I said yes. | 0:00:26 | 0:00:27 | |
In this series of Neighbourhood Blues, | 0:00:29 | 0:00:31 | |
we go to the Humberside Police region | 0:00:31 | 0:00:33 | |
and get exclusive access to 12 teams of neighbourhood | 0:00:33 | 0:00:36 | |
police officers as they tackle the problems blighting local people. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:40 | |
-No, I don't care. -Hey, hey, hey. | 0:00:40 | 0:00:42 | |
And rise to the challenge of making the streets a safer place. | 0:00:45 | 0:00:49 | |
Coming up... | 0:01:12 | 0:01:14 | |
The team take the drug dealers to task. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:18 | |
Police! | 0:01:18 | 0:01:19 | |
Stay where you are. Put that down, mate. | 0:01:19 | 0:01:21 | |
A man wanted for assault is not going down without a fight. | 0:01:21 | 0:01:25 | |
-I said no. -I said yes. | 0:01:26 | 0:01:28 | |
And there's a clamp-down on drivers looking to illegally top-up | 0:01:28 | 0:01:32 | |
their tanks with industrial-use red diesel. | 0:01:32 | 0:01:34 | |
Looks a bit red, so I'm going to have to do some tests on it. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:37 | |
Neighbourhood police teams play an integral part in the wider | 0:01:41 | 0:01:45 | |
role played by the police force | 0:01:45 | 0:01:46 | |
and they're always there to support larger nationwide operations, | 0:01:46 | 0:01:51 | |
looking to curtail lawbreakers in whatever guise they might strike. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:56 | |
Tonight, the Riverside team are gearing up to execute | 0:01:57 | 0:02:00 | |
a warrant against a property used by a suspected drug abuser, | 0:02:00 | 0:02:04 | |
following complaints from residents about the house in question. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:08 | |
And they are taking no chances against man or dog, | 0:02:08 | 0:02:11 | |
who may be at the address. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:13 | |
This is a dog shield. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:15 | |
It's basically one of our normal riot shields | 0:02:15 | 0:02:17 | |
but it's kitted out to try and prevent dogs from getting at us. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:23 | |
It just has a bit of an electrical charge on it. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:25 | |
Gareth Walker details the minefield of risks | 0:02:31 | 0:02:34 | |
the police are potentially facing at the target location. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:37 | |
The magistrates have given us | 0:02:37 | 0:02:39 | |
a warrant with a power of entry to the address. | 0:02:39 | 0:02:42 | |
There's some intelligence in relation to this address. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:46 | |
There's quite a lot of weapons on it, | 0:02:46 | 0:02:48 | |
swords and things like that inside the address, which, | 0:02:48 | 0:02:50 | |
if you've got people smashing your front door down, | 0:02:50 | 0:02:53 | |
who you don't know who they are, they may well arm themselves with | 0:02:53 | 0:02:56 | |
any equipment that they've got in there to protect themselves. | 0:02:56 | 0:03:00 | |
Silently getting into position to force entry, | 0:03:08 | 0:03:11 | |
the police check the door's locked | 0:03:11 | 0:03:13 | |
then find the optimum position for the battering ram. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:16 | |
Police! | 0:03:19 | 0:03:20 | |
Stay where you are. Put that down, mate. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:28 | |
The two of you, stay there. Put your hands where we can see them, love. | 0:03:28 | 0:03:31 | |
Police immediately detain two occupants safely. | 0:03:31 | 0:03:35 | |
Fortunately, the task goes off without difficulty - | 0:03:35 | 0:03:37 | |
perhaps because one person is just wearing a towel | 0:03:37 | 0:03:40 | |
and the other is naked. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:42 | |
The quivering dog in the cage isn't exactly the threatening guard dog | 0:03:44 | 0:03:48 | |
police intelligence had told them to expect. | 0:03:48 | 0:03:51 | |
-He's not very happy, I don't think, but he's in a cage, so... -Hello! | 0:03:51 | 0:03:56 | |
You're brave in there, aren't you? | 0:03:56 | 0:03:58 | |
Hello! Aren't you gorgeous? | 0:03:58 | 0:04:01 | |
D'you want to get yourselves dressed? | 0:04:01 | 0:04:04 | |
-There's my clothes on the stairs. -Get Jenny to come in. | 0:04:04 | 0:04:06 | |
We'll get her dressed in front of Jenny. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:08 | |
-Oh, my God! -BLEEP! -Oh, bloody hell. | 0:04:08 | 0:04:10 | |
Jenny, just make sure she doesn't touch anything. | 0:04:10 | 0:04:12 | |
The police have caught a couple who were truly | 0:04:12 | 0:04:14 | |
-unawares as they were sharing a bathtub. -Where's your towels? | 0:04:14 | 0:04:18 | |
Er, I don't know. That one were just in here. | 0:04:18 | 0:04:21 | |
Find out later if the search for drugs turns up anything suspicious. | 0:04:27 | 0:04:31 | |
The role of the neighbourhood police teams is largely to listen | 0:04:42 | 0:04:46 | |
and respond to residents' concerns about crime, but sometimes | 0:04:46 | 0:04:50 | |
they also take on the important role of rounding up criminals | 0:04:50 | 0:04:53 | |
wanted for causing crimes in the community. | 0:04:53 | 0:04:57 | |
People who are wanted for questioning by police, | 0:04:59 | 0:05:01 | |
who are obliged to attend a police station | 0:05:01 | 0:05:04 | |
if they have broken the conditions of their bail, | 0:05:04 | 0:05:06 | |
often play a game of hide-and-seek. | 0:05:06 | 0:05:09 | |
Over on the south side of Hull, David Mackinder | 0:05:09 | 0:05:12 | |
and Terry Mitchell are looking for a man wanted for causing affray. | 0:05:12 | 0:05:16 | |
They are scouting the streets around the man's home for any sign of him. | 0:05:16 | 0:05:20 | |
A tip-off tells the police the suspect has been seen out | 0:05:20 | 0:05:22 | |
walking with a large German Shepherd type dog | 0:05:22 | 0:05:25 | |
and it's not long before Dave spots the man. | 0:05:25 | 0:05:28 | |
Was it a hi-vis jacket? | 0:05:28 | 0:05:30 | |
He's got the large dog with him | 0:05:32 | 0:05:33 | |
and he looks like he could also be brandishing a weapon. | 0:05:33 | 0:05:36 | |
Stopping the van to make the arrest, | 0:05:36 | 0:05:38 | |
they not only have the dog | 0:05:38 | 0:05:40 | |
but also a large wooden stick to contend with. | 0:05:40 | 0:05:43 | |
Put it down now, otherwise I'll lock you up for affray. | 0:05:43 | 0:05:45 | |
-I said no. -Put it down now. Put it down... | 0:05:45 | 0:05:48 | |
-But the man continues to resist arrest. -..now! | 0:05:48 | 0:05:51 | |
-INDISTINCT -Ali, let go! | 0:05:51 | 0:05:53 | |
When the leaping dog has a go at Dave's arm, | 0:05:53 | 0:05:55 | |
it's time to get the cuffs on. | 0:05:55 | 0:05:57 | |
Get your dog off, and put the stick down. | 0:05:57 | 0:06:00 | |
-You're under arrest, on suspicion of affray. -No! -Yes. Yes, yes. -No. | 0:06:00 | 0:06:03 | |
But that is easier said than done. | 0:06:03 | 0:06:05 | |
I said no! | 0:06:05 | 0:06:07 | |
No! | 0:06:13 | 0:06:15 | |
-I said no! -I said yes, Ali. | 0:06:20 | 0:06:22 | |
-No. -I will spray you, Ali! | 0:06:22 | 0:06:24 | |
Relax yourself now. | 0:06:24 | 0:06:26 | |
Sandwiched between two officers, | 0:06:26 | 0:06:28 | |
the man remains determined to resist arrest. | 0:06:28 | 0:06:31 | |
Dave warns he is prepared to use the debilitating PAVA spray | 0:06:31 | 0:06:35 | |
to get the cuffs fastened. | 0:06:35 | 0:06:37 | |
Extra hands are needed and a quick request for backup is radioed in. | 0:06:37 | 0:06:41 | |
We need another patrol. | 0:06:41 | 0:06:42 | |
He's got a large stick and a dog. | 0:06:42 | 0:06:45 | |
If you don't let go of your dog, if you don't comply, I will spray you. | 0:06:45 | 0:06:48 | |
Let go of your dog. | 0:06:48 | 0:06:50 | |
Warnings over, the restraining spray is finally used. | 0:06:51 | 0:06:54 | |
Let's try again, Ali. Let go. | 0:06:54 | 0:06:57 | |
The PAVA's unexpected punch takes effect immediately. | 0:06:57 | 0:07:00 | |
Let go. | 0:07:00 | 0:07:01 | |
-Right, your dog's gone. -Oh! | 0:07:01 | 0:07:03 | |
Has my eyes gone? | 0:07:03 | 0:07:05 | |
Yeah, your eyes will go, as well, Ali. You wouldn't do as I said. | 0:07:05 | 0:07:08 | |
PAVA is an incapacitant spray now used by police forces | 0:07:08 | 0:07:11 | |
instead of pepper spray or CS gas. | 0:07:11 | 0:07:14 | |
Yes, I sprayed you, right. I gave you numerous...attempts. | 0:07:14 | 0:07:17 | |
Wrestling with the pain, the man finds new impetus to fight the cuffs | 0:07:17 | 0:07:21 | |
but it's a losing battle. | 0:07:21 | 0:07:23 | |
Relax your arm. | 0:07:26 | 0:07:28 | |
OWNER CALLS HIS DOG OFFICER WHISTLES DOG | 0:07:32 | 0:07:34 | |
Right, what you need to do is open your eyes, if you can. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:39 | |
-I can't open it. -You've got to try. | 0:07:39 | 0:07:41 | |
The agony from the PAVA dissipates on contact with air. | 0:07:41 | 0:07:45 | |
For this to happen, the eyes have to be opened, | 0:07:45 | 0:07:47 | |
but the man insists on keeping his firmly shut. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:51 | |
Can you see where you're going? You need to put your foot up. | 0:07:51 | 0:07:53 | |
I can see nothing! I didn't see nothing. | 0:07:53 | 0:07:57 | |
OK, you need to put your foot up, Ali. | 0:07:57 | 0:07:59 | |
Finally, locked up in the van, | 0:08:00 | 0:08:02 | |
the man's still refusing to see the light, and open his eyes. | 0:08:02 | 0:08:06 | |
Scratches and bites off that dog. | 0:08:07 | 0:08:09 | |
As the errant canine is recaptured | 0:08:11 | 0:08:13 | |
and about to find his way to the pound, | 0:08:13 | 0:08:15 | |
the man makes his way to jail. | 0:08:15 | 0:08:19 | |
He's been totally uncooperative from the start, really. | 0:08:20 | 0:08:25 | |
And, ultimately, | 0:08:25 | 0:08:27 | |
after numerous requests for him to comply, | 0:08:27 | 0:08:29 | |
I've sprayed him with my PAVA spray. | 0:08:29 | 0:08:31 | |
We'll try and get him booked in, | 0:08:31 | 0:08:33 | |
but if his demeanour is anything like it has been on the street, | 0:08:33 | 0:08:36 | |
we might struggle, to be honest. | 0:08:36 | 0:08:38 | |
But we'll take it as it comes. | 0:08:38 | 0:08:40 | |
Do you have an address? | 0:08:42 | 0:08:44 | |
The man doesn't respond. | 0:08:44 | 0:08:46 | |
Ali, where are you living? | 0:08:46 | 0:08:49 | |
Ali, I'm not prepared to take these handcuffs off | 0:08:50 | 0:08:52 | |
until you comply with us. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:54 | |
I can't finish the search until I take the handcuffs off | 0:08:54 | 0:08:57 | |
and we can't book you in until you answer these questions. | 0:08:57 | 0:08:59 | |
Are you going to answer them? | 0:08:59 | 0:09:01 | |
When pressed further, there is still no answer. | 0:09:01 | 0:09:04 | |
The danger is, if you don't talk to us, cooperate with us... | 0:09:04 | 0:09:06 | |
I am falling. | 0:09:06 | 0:09:08 | |
You're not falling. | 0:09:08 | 0:09:09 | |
If you don't cooperate with us, | 0:09:11 | 0:09:13 | |
we'll be forced to take your fingerprints. | 0:09:13 | 0:09:15 | |
Returning to examine the original arrest warrant, | 0:09:15 | 0:09:18 | |
police identify the silent suspect. | 0:09:18 | 0:09:21 | |
Yeah, his nose is bust. | 0:09:21 | 0:09:23 | |
He's been PAVAd, been struggling... | 0:09:23 | 0:09:24 | |
He's been fine until he got here. | 0:09:24 | 0:09:27 | |
A medical once-over confirms there's no cause for alarm from the PAVA, | 0:09:27 | 0:09:31 | |
but questions about his general health hit the same brick wall. | 0:09:31 | 0:09:35 | |
Ali, do you have any medical issues that we need to be aware of? | 0:09:35 | 0:09:38 | |
Because I don't know who you are, | 0:09:38 | 0:09:40 | |
I don't know what risk is going to be involved. | 0:09:40 | 0:09:42 | |
A strip search was authorised to make sure you have nothing on you | 0:09:42 | 0:09:45 | |
that is going to harm us or yourself. | 0:09:45 | 0:09:46 | |
Come this way, Ali. | 0:09:46 | 0:09:48 | |
Matters now need to be resolved, | 0:09:48 | 0:09:50 | |
and potential hazards identified. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:52 | |
Will you answer the questions? | 0:09:53 | 0:09:55 | |
If you don't, you'll just have to sit here | 0:09:55 | 0:09:58 | |
until the time when you're prepared to. | 0:09:58 | 0:10:00 | |
Do you want to try again? | 0:10:00 | 0:10:01 | |
Yep. Put your socks on, then. | 0:10:01 | 0:10:04 | |
In the wake of the strip search, | 0:10:04 | 0:10:05 | |
cooperation is promised and the man's powers of speech return. | 0:10:05 | 0:10:09 | |
-Have you remembered your birthday yet? -Something August. | 0:10:09 | 0:10:13 | |
Go and wash your face and come back and you can get fingerprinted. | 0:10:14 | 0:10:17 | |
Rinse your eyes with some of that. | 0:10:18 | 0:10:20 | |
Can you see, or do you need me to guide you? | 0:10:21 | 0:10:24 | |
Come this way. | 0:10:25 | 0:10:27 | |
Keep walking. Stop there. | 0:10:28 | 0:10:30 | |
Turn around, | 0:10:30 | 0:10:31 | |
and if you sit down quite low, there's a bench there. | 0:10:31 | 0:10:34 | |
OK? We'll come and see you, shortly. | 0:10:34 | 0:10:36 | |
With the wanted man locked up, | 0:10:36 | 0:10:38 | |
Dave decides to take a closer look | 0:10:38 | 0:10:40 | |
at his arrest file, | 0:10:40 | 0:10:41 | |
and is startled at what he discovers. | 0:10:41 | 0:10:44 | |
This is the original arrest package for this male | 0:10:45 | 0:10:47 | |
that we've arrested a while ago. | 0:10:47 | 0:10:50 | |
It appears as though there's been some kind of an assault. | 0:10:52 | 0:10:55 | |
While he was wanted for a violent assault, | 0:10:55 | 0:10:58 | |
the police reread the evidence to ascertain who owned the dog. | 0:10:58 | 0:11:03 | |
He started hitting her with whatever was in his hand. | 0:11:06 | 0:11:11 | |
He's then taken the dog. | 0:11:11 | 0:11:13 | |
The man pleaded not guilty to assault and theft. | 0:11:13 | 0:11:16 | |
But at court he was given a 12-week suspended sentence, | 0:11:16 | 0:11:20 | |
and a victim surcharge of £80. | 0:11:20 | 0:11:23 | |
The man was not charged with taking the dog. | 0:11:23 | 0:11:26 | |
Neighbourhood officers regularly perform vehicle patrols | 0:11:30 | 0:11:33 | |
around their patch, | 0:11:33 | 0:11:34 | |
paying particular attention to known trouble hotspots, | 0:11:34 | 0:11:37 | |
that can be a magnet for people looking to break or bend the law. | 0:11:37 | 0:11:41 | |
Tonight, John Hamilton and Rich Whelan, | 0:11:41 | 0:11:44 | |
are cruising through a shopping mall car park | 0:11:44 | 0:11:46 | |
that has been known to attract hot-rodding boy racers | 0:11:46 | 0:11:49 | |
looking to show off. | 0:11:49 | 0:11:51 | |
These guys here, these are the proper sort of enthusiasts. | 0:11:51 | 0:11:54 | |
Literally, they just talk about their cars, | 0:11:54 | 0:11:56 | |
look at all the modifications to the cars, | 0:11:56 | 0:11:58 | |
all the latest sound equipment they've got - things like that. | 0:11:58 | 0:12:01 | |
They're not generally the problem, it's the hangers-on, | 0:12:01 | 0:12:04 | |
the little tatty Vauxhall Corsas and things like that, | 0:12:04 | 0:12:06 | |
that hang on around them. | 0:12:06 | 0:12:08 | |
They're the ones that tend to cause the problems. | 0:12:08 | 0:12:10 | |
All the cars seem firmly stationary tonight, | 0:12:10 | 0:12:13 | |
with no fast moves being pulled. | 0:12:13 | 0:12:15 | |
But, as John and Rich continue their drive-by, | 0:12:15 | 0:12:18 | |
a call comes through over the radio. | 0:12:18 | 0:12:20 | |
Not about a boy racer, | 0:12:20 | 0:12:22 | |
but an unruly cinemagoer. | 0:12:22 | 0:12:24 | |
The cinema on the top floor have got a male inside | 0:12:24 | 0:12:26 | |
who has been drinking and being abusive to staff. | 0:12:26 | 0:12:28 | |
He's been asked to leave by security, but he's refusing. | 0:12:28 | 0:12:31 | |
The team deal with drunken people on a daily basis, | 0:12:31 | 0:12:33 | |
but never know how they're to be dealt with | 0:12:33 | 0:12:35 | |
until they can assess them face-to-face. | 0:12:35 | 0:12:38 | |
On arriving at the scene, they find the man to be fairly composed, | 0:12:41 | 0:12:45 | |
but the police need to take his details anyway. | 0:12:45 | 0:12:48 | |
Obviously, it was the heat of the moment, I didn't... | 0:12:48 | 0:12:52 | |
I can't remember saying that. | 0:12:52 | 0:12:54 | |
Said some choice words. | 0:12:54 | 0:12:56 | |
Don't remember that, at all. | 0:12:57 | 0:12:58 | |
OK. | 0:12:58 | 0:13:00 | |
Erm... I'm willing to leave now. | 0:13:00 | 0:13:02 | |
-Have you got his details? -No. | 0:13:02 | 0:13:04 | |
-Just take your name, then you can leave. -Yeah, yeah. | 0:13:04 | 0:13:06 | |
A member of the cinema staff thinks the man should apologise | 0:13:06 | 0:13:09 | |
for all the disruption he has caused. | 0:13:09 | 0:13:11 | |
But, any apology is hesitantly forthcoming. | 0:13:11 | 0:13:14 | |
But at the end of the day... | 0:13:27 | 0:13:29 | |
-I'm out. -The man is on his way. | 0:13:29 | 0:13:31 | |
But just when they think the matter is done and dusted, | 0:13:31 | 0:13:34 | |
another call comes in over the radio for Rich. | 0:13:34 | 0:13:36 | |
It could be in relation to the male that's just been ejected. | 0:13:36 | 0:13:39 | |
Because he is still outside on the ramp. | 0:13:39 | 0:13:42 | |
This chap wanders up, starts initially saying, | 0:13:42 | 0:13:45 | |
"Have you got any fags?" | 0:13:45 | 0:13:47 | |
-And then starts getting a little aggressive. -Right. | 0:13:47 | 0:13:50 | |
I don't know what his problem is, | 0:13:50 | 0:13:52 | |
but he seems to have unfortunately taken something to heart. | 0:13:52 | 0:13:55 | |
-He has just been ejected from the cinema. -Has he? -It's why we're here. | 0:13:55 | 0:13:59 | |
-Oh, sorry. -Oh, no, it's fine. It's not a problem. | 0:13:59 | 0:14:01 | |
That's some of the reason we're waiting around, | 0:14:01 | 0:14:04 | |
to see he didn't cause any more issues. | 0:14:04 | 0:14:06 | |
Well, he just seems to have a little bit of annoyance about something. | 0:14:06 | 0:14:09 | |
-Anyway, sorry. Thank you. -No, you're welcome. No problem, at all. | 0:14:09 | 0:14:13 | |
With the information to hand, Rich sets about | 0:14:13 | 0:14:16 | |
trying to find the drunken man | 0:14:16 | 0:14:18 | |
before he can insult anyone else. | 0:14:18 | 0:14:20 | |
They track the man down. | 0:14:20 | 0:14:22 | |
He's been refused a taxi home, | 0:14:22 | 0:14:23 | |
but he's not going anywhere without getting a ticket. | 0:14:23 | 0:14:26 | |
You just cancelled my taxi? | 0:14:26 | 0:14:28 | |
We haven't cancelled it, he's just decided not to take you. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:31 | |
Another driver will take you, however... | 0:14:31 | 0:14:33 | |
Hang on with your call, mate. | 0:14:33 | 0:14:35 | |
The patrol here is going to issue you with a ticket, | 0:14:35 | 0:14:37 | |
then you can be on your way. | 0:14:37 | 0:14:39 | |
Ticket for what? | 0:14:39 | 0:14:41 | |
-Just to ban you from the area, that's all. -For what? | 0:14:41 | 0:14:44 | |
Because you're drunk. | 0:14:44 | 0:14:45 | |
The patrol team arrives on the scene | 0:14:45 | 0:14:47 | |
and when the man has been given a Section 27 dispersal notice, | 0:14:47 | 0:14:50 | |
they will escort him from the premises to ensure that he leaves. | 0:14:50 | 0:14:54 | |
We're going to give you a notice to ban you from the area. | 0:14:54 | 0:14:57 | |
Yeah, yeah, fair enough. | 0:14:57 | 0:15:00 | |
It gives that last opportunity to get out of the area | 0:15:01 | 0:15:04 | |
and stay out of the area, sober up, | 0:15:04 | 0:15:06 | |
without having to arrest him. | 0:15:06 | 0:15:08 | |
With the man taken away, the cinemagoers of St Stephens | 0:15:08 | 0:15:11 | |
can continue to watch their movie | 0:15:11 | 0:15:13 | |
without any further unscheduled intervals | 0:15:13 | 0:15:16 | |
caused by the man's drunken antics. | 0:15:16 | 0:15:19 | |
Executing a search warrant for drugs... | 0:15:26 | 0:15:30 | |
police officers surprise two people in the bath... | 0:15:30 | 0:15:32 | |
Two of you, stay there. | 0:15:32 | 0:15:34 | |
Put your hands where we can see them, love. | 0:15:34 | 0:15:36 | |
..and found a captive dog, who seems more frightened than frightening. | 0:15:36 | 0:15:40 | |
You're not happy, are you? | 0:15:40 | 0:15:41 | |
-LOW GROWL -Bless ya. | 0:15:41 | 0:15:43 | |
Come here, love. Have to put you in cuffs | 0:15:43 | 0:15:45 | |
whilst we're wandering about, all right? | 0:15:45 | 0:15:47 | |
These people the police have found, | 0:15:47 | 0:15:49 | |
are not the registered tenants of the house. | 0:15:49 | 0:15:51 | |
They have just enough time to cover up their modesty | 0:15:53 | 0:15:56 | |
before they get questioned about why they are in the house, | 0:15:56 | 0:15:58 | |
and the whole place gets searched. | 0:15:58 | 0:16:00 | |
Waiting for the sniffer dog, | 0:16:00 | 0:16:02 | |
officers take a preliminary look around, | 0:16:02 | 0:16:04 | |
immediately discovering suspicious items. | 0:16:04 | 0:16:07 | |
That's enough to get them in for me. We can get them both in, can't we? | 0:16:07 | 0:16:10 | |
Just searching the higher parts, until the dog comes in. | 0:16:12 | 0:16:15 | |
Found a bag of white powder which potentially looks like M-Cat | 0:16:15 | 0:16:18 | |
or some sort of amphetamine. | 0:16:18 | 0:16:21 | |
Erm, coupled with that, | 0:16:21 | 0:16:23 | |
we've got... | 0:16:23 | 0:16:24 | |
..scales in a box with cash in, as well. | 0:16:25 | 0:16:28 | |
And empty sachets, so, for me, | 0:16:28 | 0:16:30 | |
it's enough probably to get them for | 0:16:30 | 0:16:32 | |
possession with intent to supply, at this time. | 0:16:32 | 0:16:34 | |
But I'll discuss it with the rest of the team. | 0:16:34 | 0:16:37 | |
It's time to read the bath-time buddies their rights. | 0:16:37 | 0:16:41 | |
We just found some drugs in there, all right? | 0:16:41 | 0:16:43 | |
INDISTINCT RESPONSE | 0:16:43 | 0:16:45 | |
Well, at this time, you are both under arrest | 0:16:45 | 0:16:47 | |
-for possession with intent to supply -BLEEP... | 0:16:47 | 0:16:49 | |
which is Class B, we believe. | 0:16:49 | 0:16:51 | |
The sniffer dog arrives. | 0:16:51 | 0:16:53 | |
Before he can even get going, his handler's spotted more evidence. | 0:16:56 | 0:16:59 | |
INDISTINCT EXCHANGE | 0:16:59 | 0:17:03 | |
Anything else in here you can think of, mate? | 0:17:03 | 0:17:05 | |
No, I've been everywhere but nothing. | 0:17:05 | 0:17:08 | |
The police fear they may be | 0:17:08 | 0:17:09 | |
confronted by someone wielding a weapon. | 0:17:09 | 0:17:12 | |
Doesn't look very nice. | 0:17:14 | 0:17:16 | |
But whilst there are a number of Oriental blades on display, | 0:17:16 | 0:17:19 | |
they do appear to be purely ornamental.. | 0:17:19 | 0:17:22 | |
if very menacing. | 0:17:22 | 0:17:25 | |
As the suspects are taken to the police station, | 0:17:25 | 0:17:27 | |
it turns out the house has more secrets to reveal. | 0:17:27 | 0:17:31 | |
And evidence to be bagged up. | 0:17:33 | 0:17:36 | |
Got some little bags... Some little funky motif on. | 0:17:36 | 0:17:40 | |
Probably used for some sort of deals. | 0:17:40 | 0:17:42 | |
They like little characters. | 0:17:42 | 0:17:44 | |
Some sort of white residue. | 0:17:47 | 0:17:48 | |
White residue with a set of scales. | 0:17:48 | 0:17:51 | |
It could be M-Cat | 0:17:56 | 0:17:58 | |
by the looks of it. | 0:17:58 | 0:17:59 | |
The hunt for drugs continues in the kitchen, | 0:18:01 | 0:18:04 | |
where Gareth finds something other than frozen peas in the freezer. | 0:18:04 | 0:18:09 | |
Generally people keep amphetamine as a paste substance in the freezer. | 0:18:09 | 0:18:13 | |
So we're guessing that's what that is at this stage. | 0:18:13 | 0:18:16 | |
But, obviously, it will require testing for fingerprints, | 0:18:16 | 0:18:18 | |
and testing of what the actual substance is. | 0:18:18 | 0:18:21 | |
And it's now time to help the nervous-looking dog, | 0:18:21 | 0:18:24 | |
who had been quivering in the cage. | 0:18:24 | 0:18:26 | |
Hello...! | 0:18:27 | 0:18:29 | |
We moved him in here, just so that the drugs dog | 0:18:29 | 0:18:31 | |
can go and carry on its search in the living room. | 0:18:31 | 0:18:34 | |
So it can progress the search, really. | 0:18:34 | 0:18:36 | |
It's one dog out, and another in, | 0:18:36 | 0:18:38 | |
as the search extends throughout the house. | 0:18:38 | 0:18:41 | |
Returning to the bathroom, | 0:18:41 | 0:18:43 | |
the dog's attention is caught by the woman's abandoned handbag. | 0:18:43 | 0:18:47 | |
The handbag doesn't turn up trumps for the team. | 0:18:48 | 0:18:52 | |
But the dog switches his attention to a nearby rucksack. | 0:18:54 | 0:18:57 | |
And this time his nose is on the money. | 0:19:00 | 0:19:03 | |
Figuratively, at least. | 0:19:03 | 0:19:05 | |
Adding more scales to the haul of evidence, | 0:19:13 | 0:19:16 | |
the dog's done good. | 0:19:16 | 0:19:18 | |
However, no charges have been brought | 0:19:24 | 0:19:27 | |
against those involved in the incident. | 0:19:27 | 0:19:29 | |
It's good news when the team score a result, | 0:19:33 | 0:19:36 | |
but they know there's always another problem just around the corner. | 0:19:36 | 0:19:41 | |
With fuel prices rising, | 0:19:41 | 0:19:43 | |
vehicle owners are finding increasingly ingenious ways | 0:19:43 | 0:19:46 | |
to keep their vehicles on the road | 0:19:46 | 0:19:48 | |
and costs down. | 0:19:48 | 0:19:50 | |
Using cheap diesel, known as red diesel, | 0:19:50 | 0:19:52 | |
which is reserved for tractors, cranes and other off-road vehicles, | 0:19:52 | 0:19:56 | |
is one scam. | 0:19:56 | 0:19:57 | |
Its lower-price leads to lower tax levies, | 0:19:57 | 0:20:00 | |
which can make a real saving in drivers' pockets at the pump. | 0:20:00 | 0:20:04 | |
But thanks to an ingenious coloured dye, | 0:20:04 | 0:20:06 | |
red diesel can be spotted easily. | 0:20:06 | 0:20:08 | |
Samples only take a minute, | 0:20:08 | 0:20:10 | |
and with Customs and Excise on site, | 0:20:10 | 0:20:12 | |
the results are equally swift. | 0:20:12 | 0:20:15 | |
Today, Bridlington police are carrying out impromptu inspections | 0:20:15 | 0:20:19 | |
on cars and vans, ensuring there are no surprises | 0:20:19 | 0:20:23 | |
lurking under the bonnet. | 0:20:23 | 0:20:24 | |
Will you let Keith know, | 0:20:24 | 0:20:27 | |
-that that Transit van is OK? -Yeah. | 0:20:27 | 0:20:28 | |
But not everyone's happy for their vehicle to be checked out. | 0:20:28 | 0:20:31 | |
-Can I have your names and numbers? -Same again? | 0:20:31 | 0:20:35 | |
Yeah. Write it down for me. | 0:20:35 | 0:20:36 | |
They've just followed me from outside my house | 0:20:36 | 0:20:38 | |
and brought me down here. | 0:20:38 | 0:20:40 | |
What's all that about? | 0:20:41 | 0:20:43 | |
The police have been stopping all diesel-engined vehicles, | 0:20:43 | 0:20:46 | |
but this man wrongly believes | 0:20:46 | 0:20:48 | |
he has been picked out for scrutiny. | 0:20:48 | 0:20:50 | |
He decides to make his displeasure known. | 0:20:50 | 0:20:53 | |
Protests don't stop the tank dip, | 0:20:54 | 0:20:56 | |
and the preliminary results | 0:20:56 | 0:20:58 | |
immediately raise suspicions. | 0:20:58 | 0:21:00 | |
Looks a bit red, so I'll have to do some tests on it. OK? | 0:21:02 | 0:21:05 | |
INDISTINCT SPEECH FROM CAR | 0:21:08 | 0:21:10 | |
I'm going to. Don't worry, you'll be hearing from my solicitor, love! | 0:21:10 | 0:21:13 | |
The red diesel test takes just a matter of seconds | 0:21:15 | 0:21:17 | |
to be carried out, and deliver a result. | 0:21:17 | 0:21:20 | |
It's not good news. As the results come back red, | 0:21:22 | 0:21:25 | |
with a fine to be paid before the van can be released, | 0:21:25 | 0:21:30 | |
the driver's none too pleased. | 0:21:30 | 0:21:31 | |
Get that camera away from me! | 0:21:31 | 0:21:34 | |
-Do you think I'm -BLEEP -with you?! | 0:21:34 | 0:21:35 | |
'Ey! | 0:21:35 | 0:21:37 | |
Get it away from me! | 0:21:37 | 0:21:38 | |
Details of the likely fine appear to have lit the touch paper, | 0:21:38 | 0:21:41 | |
but can the man rein it in | 0:21:41 | 0:21:43 | |
when he phones someone for financial help? | 0:21:43 | 0:21:46 | |
A woman arrives and wants to know why the man's in trouble. | 0:21:46 | 0:21:50 | |
We did follow him all the way up from the roundabout. | 0:21:50 | 0:21:53 | |
The man remains convinced that he has been targeted, | 0:21:53 | 0:21:57 | |
but the police confirm that all diesel vans have been tested. | 0:21:57 | 0:22:00 | |
-OFFICER: -He's not the only one. | 0:22:00 | 0:22:02 | |
They haven't even been dipping 'em as they've been fetching them in now. | 0:22:02 | 0:22:05 | |
They are if they're diesel. | 0:22:05 | 0:22:06 | |
That last one just came in... | 0:22:06 | 0:22:08 | |
It was a fake plate, didn't even get dipped. | 0:22:08 | 0:22:10 | |
-It drove straight back out. -If it's diesel, it will have been. | 0:22:10 | 0:22:13 | |
The woman pays the fine and gets the man back behind the wheel. | 0:22:18 | 0:22:22 | |
But, he'll have to keep driving | 0:22:24 | 0:22:26 | |
in order to drain the tank of the diesel within 24 hours, | 0:22:26 | 0:22:30 | |
or he'll be fined again. | 0:22:30 | 0:22:32 | |
He stated that the reason the red fuel was in there was because | 0:22:33 | 0:22:37 | |
he believed he lent it to a friend | 0:22:37 | 0:22:39 | |
and the friend has obviously put it in without him knowing. | 0:22:39 | 0:22:43 | |
For some, cheap diesel comes at a very high price. | 0:22:43 | 0:22:46 | |
Round about £550 today | 0:22:47 | 0:22:49 | |
and... | 0:22:49 | 0:22:52 | |
she's come down and paid it all for him, as well. | 0:22:52 | 0:22:54 | |
So he's been allowed, then, to drive the vehicle away. | 0:22:54 | 0:22:58 | |
Not very happy. But that's down to him, | 0:22:58 | 0:23:01 | |
he shouldn't drive a vehicle with red diesel in it. | 0:23:01 | 0:23:04 | |
Live music is welcome on the streets of Humberside, | 0:23:10 | 0:23:12 | |
but finding a suitable volume level | 0:23:12 | 0:23:15 | |
is an art form in its own right. | 0:23:15 | 0:23:18 | |
PCSO John Hammerton steps in to a dispute over decibels. | 0:23:18 | 0:23:22 | |
..and keep it quite low, that is very loud. | 0:23:22 | 0:23:25 | |
We're trying to work in those offices. | 0:23:25 | 0:23:27 | |
We can't hear ourselves think, or the telephone, for your voice. | 0:23:27 | 0:23:30 | |
Everybody has to live, sir. | 0:23:30 | 0:23:32 | |
Don't be so selfish. | 0:23:32 | 0:23:34 | |
It's not easy to be so selfish. | 0:23:34 | 0:23:36 | |
Everybody has to live. | 0:23:36 | 0:23:38 | |
There is no need for you to make that noise here. | 0:23:38 | 0:23:41 | |
No need... I have need. | 0:23:41 | 0:23:43 | |
The council's approach to busking | 0:23:43 | 0:23:46 | |
is they actively encourage busking in Hull city centre. | 0:23:46 | 0:23:49 | |
However, that is too loud. | 0:23:49 | 0:23:51 | |
Some people they are so selfish, they think only after themselves. | 0:23:51 | 0:23:55 | |
John encourages the man to use his voice and not his backup tracks. | 0:23:55 | 0:23:58 | |
I couldn't even hear your singing when I approached! | 0:23:58 | 0:24:01 | |
That's why you're busking, aren't you? It's your voice... | 0:24:01 | 0:24:04 | |
you want people to listen to. | 0:24:04 | 0:24:06 | |
Is he really dealing with a potential Pavarotti? | 0:24:06 | 0:24:09 | |
I think it's very good. | 0:24:09 | 0:24:11 | |
Better than some other buskers we have. | 0:24:11 | 0:24:13 | |
The only issue is some of the businesses don't like how loud it is. | 0:24:13 | 0:24:17 | |
But I've told him to turn it down. | 0:24:17 | 0:24:19 | |
And I think that's appropriate. | 0:24:19 | 0:24:21 | |
Can we have your votes please, citizens of Humberside? | 0:24:21 | 0:24:25 | |
SINGS FROM ITALIAN OPERA | 0:24:25 | 0:24:27 | |
It's never dull in Hull. | 0:24:29 | 0:24:31 | |
While serenading passers-by is encouraged... | 0:24:33 | 0:24:35 | |
begging isn't. | 0:24:35 | 0:24:37 | |
You know the score, don't come back. | 0:24:37 | 0:24:40 | |
When the Vagrancy Act made begging illegal in 1824, | 0:24:40 | 0:24:44 | |
it branded culprits as rogues and vagabonds. | 0:24:44 | 0:24:48 | |
PCSO Karen Smith spots a familiar face blatantly begging, | 0:24:48 | 0:24:51 | |
and decides to put her foot down. | 0:24:51 | 0:24:53 | |
-Right... -I'm just waiting for... -No, listen to me. | 0:24:55 | 0:24:58 | |
He usually buys a mag off me, that's why he give me it. | 0:24:58 | 0:25:01 | |
Listen, I know all about it. | 0:25:01 | 0:25:02 | |
I've been called to you specifically for begging. | 0:25:02 | 0:25:05 | |
Karen's moved on a dozen beggars today already. | 0:25:05 | 0:25:08 | |
And it is not long before another familiar face catches her eye. | 0:25:08 | 0:25:12 | |
-James. -Best seat in the house. | 0:25:12 | 0:25:15 | |
I know you have, hon. | 0:25:15 | 0:25:17 | |
-But you're classed as begging when you're sat there. -I'm listening. | 0:25:17 | 0:25:20 | |
I know, but people are giving you money. | 0:25:20 | 0:25:22 | |
You might not have asked her for it, but the fact is, | 0:25:22 | 0:25:25 | |
you have to get up off the floor and go sit on a bench. | 0:25:25 | 0:25:27 | |
When you're sat there, you're classed as vagrant. | 0:25:27 | 0:25:30 | |
Although the man's not actively soliciting money, | 0:25:30 | 0:25:33 | |
some people find it impossible to ignore him, | 0:25:33 | 0:25:36 | |
and they're determined to hand over all their loose change. | 0:25:36 | 0:25:38 | |
-You're better off buying the dog some treats. -I know, but... | 0:25:38 | 0:25:42 | |
You are. If you ever want to buy anything, buy the dog some food. | 0:25:44 | 0:25:47 | |
That's what I always say. | 0:25:47 | 0:25:49 | |
Buy it some biscuits... | 0:25:49 | 0:25:50 | |
It's all right, darl. I'll get it. | 0:25:50 | 0:25:53 | |
I haven't time to, at the moment. | 0:25:53 | 0:25:55 | |
It's all right, sweetheart. Thank you. | 0:25:55 | 0:25:57 | |
-You get it. -Cheers, darling. -OK. -Really. | 0:25:57 | 0:25:59 | |
-Buy the dog some food next time. -I will next time. -All right. | 0:25:59 | 0:26:02 | |
Over on the other side of the city square, | 0:26:02 | 0:26:04 | |
Tina Burn picks up the begging patrol and explains why, | 0:26:04 | 0:26:07 | |
although Hull has a number of hostels for the homeless, | 0:26:07 | 0:26:10 | |
demand often outstrips supply. | 0:26:10 | 0:26:12 | |
We've got quite a few hostels, | 0:26:12 | 0:26:14 | |
but we're getting other councils | 0:26:14 | 0:26:16 | |
from the other end of the country | 0:26:16 | 0:26:17 | |
recommending that people come to Hull | 0:26:17 | 0:26:20 | |
because we've all these hostels. | 0:26:20 | 0:26:21 | |
But they're full. | 0:26:21 | 0:26:23 | |
We still have people on the streets because the hostels are full. | 0:26:23 | 0:26:26 | |
So we've got to find somewhere and help them in some form | 0:26:26 | 0:26:29 | |
to stop them being out in the cold. | 0:26:29 | 0:26:31 | |
As night falls and the temperature drops, | 0:26:33 | 0:26:35 | |
many of those who spent the day on the street | 0:26:35 | 0:26:38 | |
look to find a bed for the night. | 0:26:38 | 0:26:41 | |
Living on the street is challenging enough, | 0:26:41 | 0:26:43 | |
without also having to go hungry. | 0:26:43 | 0:26:45 | |
-Right, who wants to have some hotpot? -Yes, please. | 0:26:45 | 0:26:48 | |
At the Roper Street, Hull, centre | 0:26:48 | 0:26:50 | |
classic winter warmers are menu favourites. | 0:26:50 | 0:26:53 | |
We've got potatoes and mince, sort of, hotpot. | 0:26:53 | 0:26:57 | |
So it's full of goodness. | 0:26:57 | 0:26:59 | |
Swinging by for a chat with regulars and new visitors alike, | 0:27:00 | 0:27:04 | |
Tina Burn helps out with a spot of waitressing. | 0:27:04 | 0:27:07 | |
-Is there any bread? -Not tonight, no, I'm afraid. | 0:27:07 | 0:27:10 | |
We need the bread for the morning. | 0:27:10 | 0:27:12 | |
We just make up a menu for it. | 0:27:12 | 0:27:14 | |
We try and stick to the menu, if we can. | 0:27:14 | 0:27:16 | |
Obviously, we're a little bit adaptable. | 0:27:16 | 0:27:19 | |
Thank you very much. Cheers. | 0:27:19 | 0:27:21 | |
Washing-up in hand, Tina catches up with hostel worker Tim, | 0:27:23 | 0:27:26 | |
who confirms it's a full house tonight. | 0:27:26 | 0:27:29 | |
Are we full tonight? | 0:27:29 | 0:27:31 | |
Yeah, we're chocka. | 0:27:31 | 0:27:32 | |
All beds full. | 0:27:32 | 0:27:34 | |
We're a winter shelter, with the most vulnerable people | 0:27:34 | 0:27:37 | |
coming through our doors. | 0:27:37 | 0:27:39 | |
This hostel life isn't a lifestyle choice. | 0:27:39 | 0:27:44 | |
Nor should it be. | 0:27:44 | 0:27:46 | |
They've got to know there's more to life than this. | 0:27:46 | 0:27:49 | |
There has to be a point - and that is to get them into their own house, | 0:27:49 | 0:27:53 | |
in their own street, | 0:27:53 | 0:27:55 | |
where they can start to really make a difference. | 0:27:55 | 0:27:58 | |
And it starts here, and sort of branches out. | 0:27:58 | 0:28:03 | |
A good meal, a roof over one's head, | 0:28:03 | 0:28:06 | |
helpful staff, | 0:28:06 | 0:28:07 | |
and a positive relationship with the police | 0:28:07 | 0:28:10 | |
combine to provide a strong base on which to build real change. | 0:28:10 | 0:28:14 | |
Any problems just give us a ring. You know where we are. | 0:28:14 | 0:28:17 | |
-Be careful out there. -Will do. Take care. | 0:28:17 | 0:28:19 | |
-Bye. -Bye. | 0:28:19 | 0:28:21 | |
Been really positive since it opened. | 0:28:21 | 0:28:23 | |
It's all going well. | 0:28:23 | 0:28:26 |
