0:00:02 > 0:00:06Neighbourhood policing has come a long way since the days of Dixon Of Dock Green.

0:00:06 > 0:00:07Good evening, all!

0:00:07 > 0:00:10From inner-city estates to suburbia...

0:00:12 > 0:00:16this new generation of community police officers are on the front line.

0:00:18 > 0:00:20POLICE!

0:00:20 > 0:00:24Their aim is to develop a stronger bond with the community...

0:00:24 > 0:00:26Have you had any problems over the last week?

0:00:26 > 0:00:29..crack down on the crimes taking place on their doorstep...

0:00:29 > 0:00:32- Have you been drinking tonight?- No. - Why's your speech slurred then?

0:00:32 > 0:00:35..formulate fast action plans to take down the criminals.

0:00:35 > 0:00:37RADIO: '..can't be too careful.'

0:00:37 > 0:00:40- Who do you think you are? - BLEEP! BLEEP!

0:00:41 > 0:00:44In this new series of Neighbourhood Blues,

0:00:44 > 0:00:47we go to the Humberside Police region and get exclusive access

0:00:47 > 0:00:50to 24 teams of Neighbourhood Police Officers...

0:00:52 > 0:00:54You're under arrest, mate.

0:00:54 > 0:00:57..as they tackle the problems blighting local people...

0:00:57 > 0:01:01You're under arrest on suspicion of possession with intent to supply a controlled drug.

0:01:01 > 0:01:02SIRENS WAIL

0:01:02 > 0:01:06..and rise to the challenge of making the streets a safer place.

0:01:27 > 0:01:31Coming up... Tip-offs about a man cultivating cannabis at home

0:01:31 > 0:01:34sees the police give him a rude awakening.

0:01:34 > 0:01:37Are you going to sort it out, please?

0:01:37 > 0:01:38BLEEP.

0:01:39 > 0:01:43An anti-social behaviour patrol at a trouble hot spot sees one lad

0:01:43 > 0:01:46get a good old-fashioned telling-off.

0:01:46 > 0:01:48Tell me your details and you tell me correctly.

0:01:48 > 0:01:52Cos if you don't, I've got your face and I will find out who you are.

0:01:52 > 0:01:54All right?

0:01:55 > 0:01:58And a shop owner takes the law into his own hands

0:01:58 > 0:02:00by locking up a pair of burly bailiffs.

0:02:00 > 0:02:03They're in there lawfully so that is the top and bottom of it,

0:02:03 > 0:02:06you are liable for false imprisonment and kidnap.

0:02:12 > 0:02:14The new style of neighbourhood policing we've been following

0:02:14 > 0:02:17is all about listening to local people's concerns

0:02:17 > 0:02:19and making communities safer.

0:02:19 > 0:02:25But the big question is, are these teams really able to make a difference?

0:02:26 > 0:02:30Complaints about anti-social behaviour caused by misbehaving teens

0:02:30 > 0:02:33set the phones ringing at police stations across the country.

0:02:34 > 0:02:37You get a lot of young people around certain areas

0:02:37 > 0:02:42who are basically just vandalising property,

0:02:42 > 0:02:47or, by their mere presence, they're threatening people around the community,

0:02:47 > 0:02:52so it might just be standing around in hoods and, you know,

0:02:52 > 0:02:56throwing abuse at people walking by.

0:02:56 > 0:02:59In Humberside, following a number of serious occurrences

0:02:59 > 0:03:02that culminated in an attack on a local takeaway owner,

0:03:02 > 0:03:07the Neighbourhood Teams have had great success at reducing the number of incidents

0:03:07 > 0:03:10and taking tough action against the perpetrators.

0:03:10 > 0:03:13They have rounded up offenders...

0:03:13 > 0:03:17- Why are you saying this to...- BLEEP. - Calm down, calm down.- No!

0:03:17 > 0:03:21..and seen them punished with criminal convictions and ASBOs.

0:03:21 > 0:03:25But they have also worked with the local council to create leisure parks

0:03:25 > 0:03:28to keep the kids off the streets and out of trouble.

0:03:28 > 0:03:32But sometimes, even these facilities can become a magnet

0:03:32 > 0:03:34for people looking to create strife.

0:03:34 > 0:03:40This park, in particular, has experienced a huge range of problems, including arson attacks.

0:03:40 > 0:03:43If you take a walk through there, you'll find several burn areas

0:03:43 > 0:03:45and some of the trees have got scorching and that

0:03:45 > 0:03:48where they've been starting the fires in there.

0:03:48 > 0:03:51When things get out of hand, the police are not afraid

0:03:51 > 0:03:55to clear the area of kids and close down the facility for set periods.

0:03:58 > 0:04:01New daily patrols have helped reduce anti-social behaviour

0:04:01 > 0:04:04but that doesn't mean it remains a trouble-free zone.

0:04:04 > 0:04:08Today, Anita is making a beat walk through the area.

0:04:08 > 0:04:12Word comes through on the radio that some children have been spotted

0:04:12 > 0:04:14climbing on the roof of the community centre.

0:04:14 > 0:04:17It seems that getting up to mischief on the rooftops

0:04:17 > 0:04:20is something the Neighbourhood Team deals with on a regular basis...

0:04:20 > 0:04:22Get down! Stop being stupid.

0:04:22 > 0:04:28..as PCSO Sam Gregory found out just a few days ago.

0:04:28 > 0:04:33And today, Anita has a similar problem to contend with.

0:04:33 > 0:04:37Two youths on top of Woodford roof which is actually quite fragile.

0:04:37 > 0:04:40They shouldn't be climbing up on the roof

0:04:40 > 0:04:43so we'll see if we go and have words with them.

0:04:43 > 0:04:46She heads off to track them down and quickly spots one of them.

0:04:48 > 0:04:50BLEEP!

0:04:50 > 0:04:51Come here! Oi!

0:04:54 > 0:04:56CHILDREN SHOUT

0:04:56 > 0:04:58Were we talking to you?

0:04:58 > 0:05:01- CHILD:- Reporting to you live from BBC News!

0:05:01 > 0:05:02Get here!

0:05:03 > 0:05:05Come here!

0:05:05 > 0:05:06BLEEP.

0:05:06 > 0:05:09Stop walking away from me.

0:05:09 > 0:05:12Right, come down here, away from this lot.

0:05:13 > 0:05:16Put your shirt down. Do you know why I'm here?

0:05:16 > 0:05:21- No.- Well, why do you think I'm here? Why do you think I'm here?

0:05:21 > 0:05:22BLEEP!

0:05:22 > 0:05:24What have you just been doing?

0:05:26 > 0:05:27No, you weren't.

0:05:27 > 0:05:31You were on that roof cos I just saw you. Weren't you?

0:05:31 > 0:05:34- No.- Yes, you were, so don't lie to me.

0:05:34 > 0:05:37All right? Don't be daft.

0:05:37 > 0:05:44You don't climb on the roofs, I will take your details, all right?

0:05:44 > 0:05:48So come over and you lot, stay away.

0:05:48 > 0:05:52Stand there. You tell me your details and you tell me correctly.

0:05:52 > 0:05:57Cos if you don't, I've got your face and I will find out who you are.

0:05:57 > 0:05:58All right?

0:05:58 > 0:06:00Stay there!

0:06:00 > 0:06:03So you were on the roof of Woodford.

0:06:03 > 0:06:06Do you realise how dangerous that is up there?

0:06:06 > 0:06:11That roof is very insecure. It's fragile and it's brittle

0:06:11 > 0:06:13and you can go through it, all right?

0:06:13 > 0:06:16It doesn't matter that you're light and little and you think you're agile.

0:06:16 > 0:06:20You don't go climbing on roofs. Do I make myself quite clear?

0:06:20 > 0:06:22You keep doing these type of activities

0:06:22 > 0:06:26and I will put you on an ABC or an ASBO

0:06:26 > 0:06:29and I'll ban you from the park and I'll ban you from Woodford.

0:06:29 > 0:06:32All right? And Woodford... Look at me when I talk to you.

0:06:32 > 0:06:35Woodford do a lot of good activities in there

0:06:35 > 0:06:37and you probably do go to some of them, all right?

0:06:37 > 0:06:41And I will stop you. So don't be climbing on the roof.

0:06:41 > 0:06:43Do you think your dad will be pleased with you?

0:06:43 > 0:06:46Right. So don't let them tell you to do things

0:06:46 > 0:06:48and don't do what they tell you, all right?

0:06:48 > 0:06:51You're an individual, you know what's right and wrong,

0:06:51 > 0:06:53don't do it, all right?

0:06:53 > 0:06:54- Go on then.- BLEEP.

0:06:54 > 0:06:58The good old-fashioned telling-off seems to have hit home.

0:06:58 > 0:07:01Obviously, they haven't heard them cos usually Woodford ring up straight away

0:07:01 > 0:07:05to say they've got people on the roof because someone will go through one of these days

0:07:05 > 0:07:08and goodness knows what's going to happen to them then, so...

0:07:16 > 0:07:19Community policing is all about spreading a simple message.

0:07:19 > 0:07:23Tell us what your problem is and we will do something about it.

0:07:23 > 0:07:25I'm impressed with the service.

0:07:25 > 0:07:28And the police do this in many different ways -

0:07:28 > 0:07:30by chatting to locals and beat walks,

0:07:30 > 0:07:32by making door-to-door calls...

0:07:32 > 0:07:36I'm one of your local PCSOs, did you get my letter the other day?

0:07:36 > 0:07:38..and through holding surgeries and public meetings.

0:07:38 > 0:07:41Clearly, you people care about your communities,

0:07:41 > 0:07:45so you've got some of that community spirit and that needs to be transferred to other people.

0:07:48 > 0:07:52Recently, the Neighbourhood Teams have started forging close ties

0:07:52 > 0:07:55with those residents who take crime most seriously of all -

0:07:55 > 0:07:58those involved in Neighbourhood Watch groups.

0:08:00 > 0:08:04Tonight, PCSO Andy Whittaker is attending a meeting on his patch.

0:08:04 > 0:08:06He thinks the partnership

0:08:06 > 0:08:07is a winning one.

0:08:07 > 0:08:12Neighbourhood Watch is little groups that residents set up themselves,

0:08:12 > 0:08:14if you're having particular problems with crime

0:08:14 > 0:08:17or any other issues in their area.

0:08:17 > 0:08:21And those who take part seem to agree.

0:08:21 > 0:08:24It's about getting all residents involved, having regular meetings,

0:08:24 > 0:08:27updating everybody, sharing information

0:08:27 > 0:08:31and just generally trying to get everyone's views all together

0:08:31 > 0:08:36to fire off to the council or the police, depending on what issues they have.

0:08:36 > 0:08:39Tonight's meeting raises something people want to see more of -

0:08:39 > 0:08:40bobbies on the beat.

0:08:40 > 0:08:43So as well as our regular patrols around the streets,

0:08:43 > 0:08:47we are going down the alleyways and into the areas

0:08:47 > 0:08:49where there is a large number of garages.

0:08:49 > 0:08:53And the idea of a friendly face in uniform rings as true today

0:08:53 > 0:08:54as it ever did.

0:08:54 > 0:08:59If you went back years and years, you'd probably relate to Dixon Of Dock Green

0:08:59 > 0:09:01as being the local bobby on the beat, many years ago.

0:09:01 > 0:09:06This is the way I perceive the community policeman to be,

0:09:06 > 0:09:09the person who's going to come round and be the person who is the face,

0:09:09 > 0:09:12who everybody will talk to and if he wants some inside information

0:09:12 > 0:09:14then that's the person who's going to get it.

0:09:14 > 0:09:16Some of it is curiosity to see what's in there,

0:09:16 > 0:09:22some of it, there is high-value pedal cycles and power-tools within the garages.

0:09:22 > 0:09:27It's always the fear of crime, which, as Andy says,

0:09:27 > 0:09:31it is that that makes people more worried.

0:09:31 > 0:09:35By keeping us in touch with what is going on or not going on,

0:09:35 > 0:09:38some of that fear gets reduced, really.

0:09:38 > 0:09:42And also, we also know the police are on top of it.

0:09:42 > 0:09:43Write a statement and...

0:09:43 > 0:09:46Another issue raised at the meeting may seem a minor one

0:09:46 > 0:09:49but it really does get people's backs up.

0:09:49 > 0:09:51Is there anything that can be done about this dog mess?

0:09:53 > 0:09:57And as we're about to find out, the police are quick to react to the complaint.

0:09:58 > 0:10:00Nice to see you. Thanks ever so much, bye!

0:10:02 > 0:10:08The Neighbourhood Teams can be found patrolling outdoor spaces and parks every day.

0:10:08 > 0:10:11But it's not just always to keep an eye on any tearaway teens.

0:10:11 > 0:10:16Because today, acting on concerns voiced by the residents about dog fouling,

0:10:16 > 0:10:20Anita is teaming up with the council to send a message

0:10:20 > 0:10:23that they are getting tough on those who let their dogs do a dirty.

0:10:23 > 0:10:28The man she is with works for the council as an Anti-Social Behaviour Officer

0:10:28 > 0:10:31and we have disguised his identity because sometimes,

0:10:31 > 0:10:33he carries out undercover work in the park,

0:10:33 > 0:10:36looking for troublemakers.

0:10:36 > 0:10:40Whenever we have community forums, always within the top three

0:10:40 > 0:10:44of issues in the area is dog fouling.

0:10:44 > 0:10:47And it's a complaint echoed nationwide.

0:10:47 > 0:10:50I really...I cannot understand anybody who has a dog

0:10:50 > 0:10:52who doesn't clear up after them.

0:10:52 > 0:10:58People who don't clean up their dog mess are bad owners, basically.

0:10:58 > 0:11:01It's just irresponsible, isn't it?

0:11:01 > 0:11:04I think it's assumed if you've got a dog that you would look after

0:11:04 > 0:11:07or take care of the dog, you can take care of what it might leave behind.

0:11:07 > 0:11:12For me, it's just...good sense and neighbourliness.

0:11:12 > 0:11:16You shouldn't leave it because children can get involved in it

0:11:16 > 0:11:18and it just makes an awful mess, apart from the smell!

0:11:18 > 0:11:22It's people who tend to walk the streets with the dogs that don't clean it up.

0:11:22 > 0:11:25You find people who walk them in the parks do.

0:11:25 > 0:11:30But they just seem to not care and it's revolting.

0:11:30 > 0:11:33I think if there's anything stronger that could be done about that,

0:11:33 > 0:11:37I think dog fouling is real big issue, actually,

0:11:37 > 0:11:39in a lot of towns and cities.

0:11:39 > 0:11:42Er, we have a gentleman hopefully still in reception

0:11:42 > 0:11:45that would like to speak to us with regards to dog fouling

0:11:45 > 0:11:50within the East Park or maybe just in general.

0:11:50 > 0:11:53- So obviously with having- BLEEP- here as well with us,

0:11:53 > 0:11:58he can obviously put the council perspective on it as well as ourselves.

0:11:58 > 0:12:01Go and have a word with him and see what issues he does have.

0:12:03 > 0:12:06The local man who has been plagued by the problem where he lives

0:12:06 > 0:12:09wants to know what can be done about getting the mess cleaned up

0:12:09 > 0:12:12and the offending dog-owners reprimanded.

0:12:12 > 0:12:16Well, I live just off Gillshill, on Lancaster Drive.

0:12:16 > 0:12:20I'm just sick of people... I mean, we've got a grass verge

0:12:20 > 0:12:25and we just can't... I've not caught anybody yet but I thought I might challenge them myself.

0:12:25 > 0:12:31- And they're just letting their dogs poo on the grass verges.- Yeah.

0:12:31 > 0:12:35But obviously, there's no-one to stop them or no-one to see them.

0:12:35 > 0:12:39If it's brought to our attention that there's a particular problem, again, like you said,

0:12:39 > 0:12:42we've done patrols round the park, nothing to stop a dog messing

0:12:42 > 0:12:44two minutes after we've walked past.

0:12:44 > 0:12:47Now, if members of the public say to us,

0:12:47 > 0:12:52every morning, every evening between 6am, 7am,

0:12:52 > 0:12:55or seven on an evening, eight on an evening,

0:12:55 > 0:12:57just because it's early or just because it's late,

0:12:57 > 0:13:01if we've got evidence to prove it's happening at a certain time,

0:13:01 > 0:13:07between certain hours, then Hull City Council officers can be there.

0:13:07 > 0:13:09We're aware, we've got excellent CCTV coverage

0:13:09 > 0:13:12and it is something we're looking at. All right?

0:13:12 > 0:13:15- Yeah, thanks very much.- No worries. - Cheers, thank you.

0:13:15 > 0:13:18- Thanks very much, sorry we kept you waiting.- Ah, you're all right!

0:13:18 > 0:13:21A tough stance on dog fouling has strong public support.

0:13:21 > 0:13:24And, should we see anybody allowing their dog to foul

0:13:24 > 0:13:28and not clear it up, they will be issued with a £50 fine.

0:13:28 > 0:13:30And when it starts hitting them in the pocket,

0:13:30 > 0:13:34- they'll amend their behaviour. - They'll do something about it, won't they?

0:13:34 > 0:13:38But it's always, always in our top three of issues.

0:13:46 > 0:13:50The credit crunch has seen thousands of small businesses go bust.

0:13:50 > 0:13:53But when the shutter gets pulled down for the last time

0:13:53 > 0:13:56on a shop, you don't expect someone to get locked inside,

0:13:56 > 0:13:59especially a pair of burly bailiffs.

0:13:59 > 0:14:01PC Alan Cowley explains more.

0:14:01 > 0:14:05We've just been called to a job, to see if we can assist some bailiffs

0:14:05 > 0:14:08who've been to evict the occupants of a shop.

0:14:08 > 0:14:11For some reason, they've ended up being locked into the property.

0:14:11 > 0:14:13I don't know if it's by mistake or malicious.

0:14:13 > 0:14:16We're going to pop down to see what the score is.

0:14:16 > 0:14:19We'll swing by there and see if there's any way we can assist.

0:14:19 > 0:14:24- Rose's Bargains.- Rose's Bargains, here we go.

0:14:24 > 0:14:26Any bailiffs in there?

0:14:26 > 0:14:31They are as well, look! He's trying to break out.

0:14:31 > 0:14:35Good evening, sir, are you the bailiff?

0:14:35 > 0:14:37Yes, we both are.

0:14:37 > 0:14:40Rose's Bargains is a small second-hand store,

0:14:40 > 0:14:41owned by a local man.

0:14:41 > 0:14:45The team are puzzled about how and why the bailiffs are locked in

0:14:45 > 0:14:48and set to work asking them what happened.

0:14:48 > 0:14:51They've entered the shop earlier on during the day,

0:14:51 > 0:14:54with a warrant from the court, so they're there legitimately,

0:14:54 > 0:14:57to collect some money. For one reason or another,

0:14:57 > 0:15:00either intentionally or a mistake's happened,

0:15:00 > 0:15:04the owner's left the shop, locked the shutters and the bailiffs are locked in.

0:15:04 > 0:15:08He's leaving himself open, liable to be arrested for kidnap

0:15:08 > 0:15:09or false imprisonment.

0:15:09 > 0:15:12The guy's not been very happy.

0:15:12 > 0:15:16- And then he said, "Right, I'm going," and he's decided to lock us in.- OK.

0:15:22 > 0:15:25Gareth gets the owner's number...

0:15:25 > 0:15:280-7...what is it?

0:15:28 > 0:15:30..and gives him a call.

0:15:33 > 0:15:36- If you did, would you be able to get out of there?- Yeah.

0:15:36 > 0:15:40Right, but you've locked them in there which is a deliberate act,

0:15:40 > 0:15:43which leaves you liable unless we can get them out now.

0:15:43 > 0:15:47My colleague would appear to be on the telephone with the tenant at the minute

0:15:47 > 0:15:52so we'll see if we can perhaps persuade...advise him to come down.

0:15:52 > 0:15:55As the bailiffs wait to see if the owner returns to let them out,

0:15:55 > 0:15:59one of them explains the reason for their visit and imprisonment.

0:15:59 > 0:16:02We were sent to collect the full balance of the rent,

0:16:02 > 0:16:05or to remove goods to sell at auction to cover the cost of the rent.

0:16:05 > 0:16:08Obviously, the tenant refused to pay,

0:16:08 > 0:16:12basically demanded that we leave the premises which I couldn't do

0:16:12 > 0:16:17at the time and he decided to lock us in and disappear with the keys.

0:16:17 > 0:16:21Gareth is still on the phone to the owner and lays down the law to him.

0:16:21 > 0:16:24They're in there lawfully so that is the top and bottom of it.

0:16:24 > 0:16:26You are liable for false imprisonment and kidnap.

0:16:26 > 0:16:31Are you coming down now? Thank you.

0:16:31 > 0:16:32Ta.

0:16:33 > 0:16:37He's en route, coming to us now.

0:16:37 > 0:16:40- Persuade and advised?- He's been told he'll get locked up.

0:16:40 > 0:16:42- Give him the legislation?- Yes. - Excellent.

0:16:42 > 0:16:44In terms of you and your warrant and everything,

0:16:44 > 0:16:49we obviously won't have time... Are you going to start taking gear out of there?

0:16:49 > 0:16:51No, no, all that's been settled now, by the landlord.

0:16:51 > 0:16:53- That's been done, has it?- Yes, all settled.

0:16:53 > 0:16:56- So all you need to do is come out of there?- Yes.- OK, that's fine.

0:16:56 > 0:16:57No worries.

0:16:57 > 0:17:01Find out later if the team get the shop owner to play ball

0:17:01 > 0:17:03and raise the shutter on the banged-up bailiffs.

0:17:12 > 0:17:14It's good news when the team score a result.

0:17:14 > 0:17:17But they know that trouble is always brewing elsewhere.

0:17:17 > 0:17:20Drug-dealing and abuse, wherever it may take place,

0:17:20 > 0:17:23always gets them taking tough action.

0:17:26 > 0:17:30Cannabis is the most widely used illegal drug in the UK.

0:17:30 > 0:17:34But in recent years, the police have been faced with a greater challenge

0:17:34 > 0:17:36than just catching dealers and users...

0:17:38 > 0:17:42..because over 60% of cannabis sold is now home-grown.

0:17:42 > 0:17:46In Humberside, the Neighbourhood Team launch regular strikes

0:17:46 > 0:17:50against both large-scale drug barons and small-time street peddlers.

0:17:53 > 0:17:56But it's not just dealers they're going after.

0:17:56 > 0:17:59It's the growing number of people who think it's OK

0:17:59 > 0:18:02to grow their own at home, despite cannabis being classified

0:18:02 > 0:18:04as a Class B drug.

0:18:05 > 0:18:11Today, over at Preston Road, Nigel and Craig are responding to a tip-off from a resident

0:18:11 > 0:18:13that someone is growing cannabis at a house on their street.

0:18:14 > 0:18:16A member of the public's rang us,

0:18:16 > 0:18:20telling us that they can smell cannabis quite strongly,

0:18:20 > 0:18:23believed to be... But we haven't got much information to play with,

0:18:23 > 0:18:27certainly not enough for us to obtain a warrant from court as yet, so...

0:18:27 > 0:18:31it's the best way to play it, really.

0:18:31 > 0:18:39It's a rented property but so far, neither the landlord or letting agent has been able to gain entry.

0:18:39 > 0:18:41She rang us because they wouldn't let her in

0:18:41 > 0:18:43and they haven't let her in for a while.

0:18:43 > 0:18:46And when they open the door, there's obviously a strong smell of cannabis.

0:18:46 > 0:18:51We're trying to get information from them, which has proved fruitless

0:18:51 > 0:18:55because she hasn't even got details of who the occupants are, for some reason!

0:18:55 > 0:18:58These are some of the hurdles you get.

0:18:58 > 0:19:01Fortunately, they're recorded on our system already, for whatever reason.

0:19:04 > 0:19:09Although it doesn't help. If you're going to an address, you want to know what warnings people have got,

0:19:09 > 0:19:15what history they've got so you can take the appropriate risk measurements, really.

0:19:15 > 0:19:16Arriving at the property,

0:19:16 > 0:19:19they gain entry by simply knocking on the door.

0:19:20 > 0:19:22- Hello.- Are you all right?

0:19:22 > 0:19:24- Are you the occupier? - Well, I live here.

0:19:24 > 0:19:27- Can I have a chat, please? - Yes, of course you can.

0:19:27 > 0:19:29I'm Nigel Morgan, your local police officer round here.

0:19:38 > 0:19:40It's not actually my house,

0:19:40 > 0:19:44- it's my partner's, who's upstairs. - He's upstairs, is he?

0:19:44 > 0:19:47The mother claims that she has just moved into her partner's house,

0:19:47 > 0:19:48who's upstairs in bed.

0:19:48 > 0:19:50- My colleague's explained what the... - Oh yes, yeah.

0:19:50 > 0:19:54I ain't lived here long, my partner's lived here...

0:19:54 > 0:19:56I've just moved from my other house.

0:19:56 > 0:20:00- Is there anything that shouldn't be here?- Not as far as I know, I ain't got a clue.

0:20:00 > 0:20:04There is a little bit of a smell of cannabis, all right.

0:20:04 > 0:20:08- There's something in the loft. - It's a loft extension.

0:20:08 > 0:20:11- It's a bedroom.- Oh, it's a bedroom. Up there?- Yeah.

0:20:11 > 0:20:14- Is it?- It's a bedroom. - Do you want to come with me and have a look round,

0:20:14 > 0:20:17cos if your partner's fast asleep, he's going to have a fright

0:20:17 > 0:20:19when I, er...

0:20:19 > 0:20:20The woman gets him out of bed.

0:20:21 > 0:20:25BLEEP. BLEEP.

0:20:25 > 0:20:27The police are here.

0:20:27 > 0:20:29Well, you didn't mess about there, did you?!

0:20:29 > 0:20:33I've just said to them I ain't lived here long, so...

0:20:33 > 0:20:35Are you going to sort it out, please?

0:20:35 > 0:20:39We've had a report regards cannabis being in here, OK?

0:20:39 > 0:20:43So, we've come to have a look around, really.

0:20:43 > 0:20:46We've not come round busting doors, etc...

0:20:46 > 0:20:49On being asked if there is any cannabis growing,

0:20:49 > 0:20:50he confesses immediately.

0:20:50 > 0:20:51How many plants upstairs?

0:20:51 > 0:20:55- Three.- Three? All right.

0:20:55 > 0:21:00Er... We'll do this as quickly and as discreetly as we can

0:21:00 > 0:21:02- but obviously we're in uniform so - BLEEP- and that

0:21:02 > 0:21:05but we don't want to cause too much havoc and that.

0:21:05 > 0:21:06BLEEP.

0:21:06 > 0:21:10The team want the issue resolved as quickly as possible

0:21:10 > 0:21:13so get the man to reveal where his stash is.

0:21:13 > 0:21:16Is it up there, the stuff, or in the back garden?

0:21:16 > 0:21:18No, it's upstairs.

0:21:19 > 0:21:24Find out later just exactly what weedy secret is found to be lurking in the loft.

0:21:30 > 0:21:33Back over in Hull city centre...

0:21:33 > 0:21:35Can you hear me, sir? Are you the bailiff?

0:21:35 > 0:21:39Steve and Gareth have attended a distress call from a couple of bailiffs.

0:21:39 > 0:21:41They were locked in a shop

0:21:41 > 0:21:43after the owner pulled down the shutter on them

0:21:43 > 0:21:46as they tried to remove goods to settle a debt.

0:21:46 > 0:21:50But you've locked them in there which is a deliberate act

0:21:50 > 0:21:52which leaves you liable unless we can get them out now.

0:21:53 > 0:21:56The team have been waiting for the owner to arrive

0:21:56 > 0:22:00but some time has passed and there is still no sign of him.

0:22:01 > 0:22:04Just as Gareth is about to call him again,

0:22:04 > 0:22:06they spot him arriving.

0:22:06 > 0:22:07There he is!

0:22:07 > 0:22:10There's Mr Rosey himself.

0:22:12 > 0:22:14Now then, young man, how are you doing?

0:22:14 > 0:22:16- I'm fine, me.- Would you let these people out then?

0:22:16 > 0:22:19Well, it's all about deprivation, demoralisation,

0:22:19 > 0:22:21and dehumanisation, isn't it?

0:22:21 > 0:22:23It might well be but unfortunately, they're there illegally, mate.

0:22:23 > 0:22:26No, I asked them to leave, what can I do?

0:22:26 > 0:22:29- They've got a warrant.- If they've got a warrant, they don't have to.

0:22:29 > 0:22:30They only had to step outside!

0:22:30 > 0:22:32I'm not going to leave all my stuff out, am I?

0:22:32 > 0:22:35I'm just fighting for a common man, I'm a second-hand dealer.

0:22:35 > 0:22:37- Pop the shutter.- Pop the shutters and let's get them out.

0:22:37 > 0:22:41They think they can just come here and empty my shop cos I'm behind with the rent.

0:22:41 > 0:22:43- Get that on telly.- They've got a warrant to do that, mate.

0:22:43 > 0:22:45They only had to stand outside.

0:22:45 > 0:22:48- Stop shouting and we'll get it sorted.- I'm saying what I feel.

0:22:48 > 0:22:51- Right then, lads.- I've got a right, like everybody else!

0:22:51 > 0:22:53Have you got your money and you're happy?

0:22:53 > 0:22:55Well, that's that part of it sorted.

0:22:55 > 0:22:57So you're happy you're out of the way.

0:22:57 > 0:23:02- Yes.- Okey-dokey. We'll make sure you get away without any further problems.

0:23:02 > 0:23:04Okey-dokey, thank you very much.

0:23:04 > 0:23:07All right, no worries, see you later.

0:23:07 > 0:23:10The bailiffs are freed and don't want to take the matter any further.

0:23:10 > 0:23:14Alan explains to the owner why he was breaking the law.

0:23:14 > 0:23:16I appreciate you're miffed and all the rest of it,

0:23:16 > 0:23:18but once they've got a warrant from the courts,

0:23:18 > 0:23:21they've got a power to come in here and you can't kick them out.

0:23:21 > 0:23:24- No.- Listen, I can see you're a hard-working man,

0:23:24 > 0:23:26trying to make a living, but by locking them in,

0:23:26 > 0:23:29if they want to make a complaint now, which they're entitled to do,

0:23:29 > 0:23:32I'd be locking you up for a kidnap and false imprisonment.

0:23:32 > 0:23:34No, you wouldn't be because I asked them to stand outside.

0:23:34 > 0:23:38You can't ask them to... Listen to me, I'm just offering you the advice,

0:23:38 > 0:23:40if it happens again.

0:23:40 > 0:23:43You're a gentleman but not a lot of people are gentlemen, are they?

0:23:43 > 0:23:44Unfortunately not.

0:23:44 > 0:23:49The law is wrong, I should go to court before they can come in my shop and empty my shop.

0:23:49 > 0:23:51- I don't make the law, I uphold it. - No, but it's wrong.

0:23:51 > 0:23:54They shouldn't be allowed just to come in somebody's shop

0:23:54 > 0:23:56and empty it on their say-so.

0:23:56 > 0:23:58There's a lot of things in life that are wrong

0:23:58 > 0:24:00but me and you can't put them right, can we?

0:24:00 > 0:24:03Yes, it's all about deprivation, demoralisation and dehumanisation.

0:24:03 > 0:24:07'Mr Rose is obviously upset. He considers himself, which I'm sure he is,

0:24:07 > 0:24:10'as a hard-working man, trying to make ends meet.'

0:24:10 > 0:24:13He fell into difficulties with the shop and he owes rent money.

0:24:13 > 0:24:15His only way out now is to close the shop.

0:24:15 > 0:24:19The bailiffs have gone, they've got their money for what they need for the time being.

0:24:19 > 0:24:23Mr Rose is coming back tomorrow. He's going to empty the contents

0:24:23 > 0:24:28out of the shop, hand the keys over and unfortunately, that's his business folded.

0:24:28 > 0:24:30It's quite a sorry state of affairs, really.

0:24:30 > 0:24:34Everybody's trying to make ends meet in times of austerity.

0:24:34 > 0:24:39But unfortunately, he's fell foul to it and he's on his way.

0:24:39 > 0:24:43The upside of it is there's no complaints from the bailiffs

0:24:43 > 0:24:47and he's not going to be facing any charges and court appearances.

0:24:47 > 0:24:50- See you later, lads.- See you later. - Bye.

0:25:02 > 0:25:06The next day, Mr Rose returns to his premises

0:25:06 > 0:25:08but the experience has led him to call it a day.

0:25:10 > 0:25:13Winston Churchill should be here, he'd have sorted them out.

0:25:14 > 0:25:15He was a bulldog.

0:25:15 > 0:25:20Rightly or wrongly, Mr Rose feels that he wasn't given enough time

0:25:20 > 0:25:22to get the shop back to profit.

0:25:22 > 0:25:25I think justice is only for the rich and not for the poor.

0:25:25 > 0:25:28If you haven't got money, you're never going to get justice.

0:25:28 > 0:25:31As I learnt when I was ten years old when I did five years

0:25:31 > 0:25:34in an approved school for pinching three Mars Bars.

0:25:34 > 0:25:36All right, they've robbed me of my childhood

0:25:36 > 0:25:39but they're not going to rob me of my manhood,

0:25:39 > 0:25:41they're not going to rob me of the person who I am.

0:25:42 > 0:25:45With nothing more to say, Mr Rose...

0:25:48 > 0:25:51..shuts up shop for good.

0:26:00 > 0:26:02SHOUTING

0:26:02 > 0:26:06The Humberside Police teams have become a nationwide powerhouse

0:26:06 > 0:26:09when it comes to cracking down on small-time peddlers

0:26:09 > 0:26:10and big-time drug barons.

0:26:10 > 0:26:14We're looking at roughly around £180,000 worth of cannabis plants.

0:26:14 > 0:26:18They've prevented millions of pounds worth of cannabis from getting out onto the street

0:26:18 > 0:26:21and scored some of the biggest hauls around.

0:26:21 > 0:26:24..suspicion of possession with intent to supply a controlled drug.

0:26:24 > 0:26:28But they are not resting on their laurels, they're keeping the pressure up,

0:26:28 > 0:26:30working on tip-offs from the public.

0:26:30 > 0:26:32- Who do you think you are?- BLEEP!

0:26:32 > 0:26:34They're taking dealers off the streets

0:26:34 > 0:26:37and also sending a message to those who think there's nothing wrong

0:26:37 > 0:26:40with growing a little of their own at home for personal use.

0:26:40 > 0:26:45Today, they are following up on information provided by neighbours,

0:26:45 > 0:26:48who suspect the occupants of a house where they live are growing dope.

0:26:48 > 0:26:52We've had a report regards cannabis being grown here, OK.

0:26:52 > 0:26:56So we've come to have a look around, really.

0:26:56 > 0:26:59Is there any in your outbuilding, out there?

0:27:01 > 0:27:04A search of the house has led the police to an attic room,

0:27:04 > 0:27:07where there is an overpowering and very distinctive smell.

0:27:07 > 0:27:12- Is this your only crop, is it?- Yeah. - So you've just cropped it, basically?- Yeah.

0:27:12 > 0:27:14- You've got no more plants on the go? - No.

0:27:14 > 0:27:18'Man came to us and said you could smell cannabis straight away.'

0:27:18 > 0:27:21The female occupant at the address was a little bit cagey

0:27:21 > 0:27:25as to what was here but I think it's quite apparent there was something here.

0:27:25 > 0:27:30From having a look round, we've found, so far, a small amount of cannabis bush

0:27:30 > 0:27:34which has already been grown and is now being dried out.

0:27:34 > 0:27:38Er, but there's only a very small amount.

0:27:38 > 0:27:42The whole house is overpowered by the smell from the drying plants,

0:27:42 > 0:27:45inhalation of which presents a real health hazard.

0:27:46 > 0:27:49We'll have a bit more of a thorough look around,

0:27:49 > 0:27:52there might still be some bits and bobs.

0:27:52 > 0:27:54I'm not 100% happy that's all there is.

0:27:54 > 0:28:00We haven't found any equipment yet, for example, so where it might be getting grown in the first place.

0:28:00 > 0:28:03Craig searches the bedrooms for any other evidence

0:28:03 > 0:28:05and Nigel checks out the downstairs.

0:28:06 > 0:28:09- Being grown in here?- Yeah.

0:28:14 > 0:28:17The man claims the room was empty until a few days ago

0:28:17 > 0:28:20and used for just growing the plants found, for his own use.

0:28:20 > 0:28:22When did you put all this stuff back in then?

0:28:31 > 0:28:33Where was it all before that?

0:28:33 > 0:28:35The man says he has passed on the gear used for growing

0:28:35 > 0:28:37and turned the space back into a bedroom.

0:28:37 > 0:28:41A search inside and out doesn't bring up any evidence

0:28:41 > 0:28:43of wider-scale production.

0:28:54 > 0:28:55OK.

0:28:55 > 0:28:58The team is satisfied that the crop was a grow-your-own

0:28:58 > 0:29:02just for the man's personal use but that doesn't mean he's getting off the hook.

0:29:02 > 0:29:05What we're going to do is we're going to take what we've found,

0:29:05 > 0:29:08er, and my colleague's going to arrange for you to come in

0:29:08 > 0:29:10and be interviewed, OK?

0:29:10 > 0:29:13You appreciate you could be arrested for it, it's still an offence.

0:29:13 > 0:29:17In cases like this, the team don't have to arrest the man on the spot.

0:29:17 > 0:29:22Instead, they can arrange for him to come down to the station for questioning at a later date,

0:29:22 > 0:29:24saving valuable time and resources.

0:29:24 > 0:29:27I've written down, "regards the cannabis you found, is mine

0:29:27 > 0:29:31"and mine alone, it's nothing to do with anybody else in the house.

0:29:31 > 0:29:33"I agree to be interviewed at Preston Road police station.

0:29:33 > 0:29:36- "I'm aware that if I don't turn up, I will be arrested."- Yep.

0:29:36 > 0:29:40When you arrest someone, it should be a necessity to do that.

0:29:40 > 0:29:43Obviously, in different circumstances,

0:29:43 > 0:29:47there's jobs we get sent to, we go to, are generally slow time.

0:29:47 > 0:29:53We also have the ability to have that contact and continuity with people.

0:29:53 > 0:29:57As the police leave, they reveal that when writing their report,

0:29:57 > 0:30:00they will make a note of some other points that came to their attention at the house.

0:30:00 > 0:30:04The concerning thing is that it was being grown in the lad's bedroom.

0:30:04 > 0:30:08He said the bed and everything wasn't there at the time.

0:30:08 > 0:30:11We have a duty of care to the children as well,

0:30:11 > 0:30:15so as part of our process, we'll have to complete the relevant paperwork.

0:30:15 > 0:30:18The Neighbourhood Team are on the frontline when it comes

0:30:18 > 0:30:21to tackling these kinds of doorstep crimes that upset residents

0:30:21 > 0:30:24and always try to get a fast turnaround resolution,

0:30:24 > 0:30:28and conviction where appropriate for any given offence.

0:30:29 > 0:30:34A week later, the man is interviewed and he receives a police caution for his crime.

0:30:34 > 0:30:37Thanks for turning up today, you're going to receive a caution.

0:30:37 > 0:30:40Right, that's the caution done. Like I say, it'll go no further.

0:30:40 > 0:30:43You're not required to attend court, that's the end of the matter,

0:30:43 > 0:30:46unless you're arrested again or dealt with again by the police.

0:30:46 > 0:30:48It's another speedy result for the team,

0:30:48 > 0:30:50all thanks to information provided to them by locals,

0:30:50 > 0:30:54fed up with crime taking place on their street.

0:31:01 > 0:31:04Listening to the public about the types of crimes

0:31:04 > 0:31:08that affect everyday life is the driving force behind neighbourhood policing.

0:31:08 > 0:31:09But with hundreds of phone calls

0:31:09 > 0:31:12coming in to the neighbourhood offices every day,

0:31:12 > 0:31:15the police never know what problem they might have to tackle next.

0:31:17 > 0:31:20Earlier in the night, Gareth and Steve attended a call

0:31:20 > 0:31:24to free a pair of bailiffs who had become locked inside a shop.

0:31:24 > 0:31:27Just as they think the night is going to get quieter,

0:31:27 > 0:31:28they're in for a surprise.

0:31:28 > 0:31:33They spot a car that is driving a bit erratically and go to pull him over.

0:31:33 > 0:31:35Oh, he's not going to stop for us on here.

0:31:35 > 0:31:39But despite putting the blues on, he's not playing ball.

0:31:41 > 0:31:43RADIO: 'Can't stop him on there, can we?'

0:31:43 > 0:31:46SIREN BEGINS TO WAIL

0:31:47 > 0:31:51As the sirens fire up, the team are now in full pursuit of the driver,

0:31:51 > 0:31:54who is still refusing to stop.

0:31:57 > 0:31:59He's not having it.

0:32:08 > 0:32:12Current speed is 35 miles an hour.

0:32:13 > 0:32:15The driver is now jumping red lights.

0:32:16 > 0:32:18Through a red light...

0:32:18 > 0:32:21Currently still towards Myton Bridge.

0:32:21 > 0:32:24See if he continues but we are...

0:32:24 > 0:32:26With Alan keeping tail of the car, Gareth puts in a call

0:32:26 > 0:32:28to the traffic cops to intercept it.

0:32:28 > 0:32:32Heading towards Myton Bridge, still safe to continue.

0:32:32 > 0:32:36Traffic is light, road conditions dry, safe to continue.

0:32:38 > 0:32:43Within moments, two traffic cars arrive and the car is pulled to a halt.

0:32:44 > 0:32:48Gareth and Alan get out to question the driver.

0:32:48 > 0:32:50SIRENS WAIL

0:33:02 > 0:33:05The man has an excuse for his actions.

0:33:11 > 0:33:13Just come and sit in our car for a minute.

0:33:13 > 0:33:17- I've just come from Dad's office. - That's the job he's given me, from Dad's office.

0:33:17 > 0:33:21He said he thought it was an ambulance at one stage.

0:33:21 > 0:33:23With the man detained by the traffic cops,

0:33:23 > 0:33:25Alan explains why he's searching his car.

0:33:25 > 0:33:28The gentleman's failed to stop for us, all the way down the A63,

0:33:28 > 0:33:29for about a mile, mile and a half.

0:33:29 > 0:33:33Consequently, because of that, I'm carrying out a...

0:33:33 > 0:33:35Section 1 PACE search of the vehicle,

0:33:35 > 0:33:37see if there's anything stolen or prohibited in it.

0:33:37 > 0:33:40But there is also another small problem to deal with -

0:33:40 > 0:33:43the man's young son, who was a passenger.

0:33:43 > 0:33:47The chap who was driving, he's got a small son in the rear of the car,

0:33:47 > 0:33:48who's about seven or eight years old.

0:33:48 > 0:33:51We've stuck him into our vehicle for safe custody, basically,

0:33:51 > 0:33:54to make sure he's not wandering onto the road and for his own safety.

0:33:54 > 0:33:57Have you been in a police car before? No?

0:33:57 > 0:33:58Is it exciting?

0:33:58 > 0:34:01The man gets grilled about his erratic driving

0:34:01 > 0:34:03and failure to stop for the police.

0:34:03 > 0:34:06What would you normally do if you saw an emergency vehicle behind you?

0:34:08 > 0:34:10Why didn't you on this occasion?

0:34:15 > 0:34:19And what he's saying, he thought you were an ambulance, is that not credible?

0:34:19 > 0:34:21Whenever he went right, we went right.

0:34:21 > 0:34:23Whenever he went left, we went left behind him.

0:34:23 > 0:34:26So we weren't trying to get up the inside or anything.

0:34:26 > 0:34:28As the police debate if his excuse is acceptable,

0:34:28 > 0:34:31another officer breathalyses the man.

0:34:31 > 0:34:34OK, mate, keep your hands down.

0:34:34 > 0:34:38He had not been drinking so the breathalyser shows he's not over the limit.

0:34:38 > 0:34:42He's given a sample of breath, he's clear, he's not been drinking.

0:34:42 > 0:34:47The traffic patrols are going to deal with him now for the offences he's committed,

0:34:47 > 0:34:50which is failing to stop for the police vehicle,

0:34:50 > 0:34:54when we've clearly got twos and blues illuminated and sounding,

0:34:54 > 0:34:58and also, he's contravened a red traffic light

0:34:58 > 0:35:00as we've come through the Myton Gate roundabout.

0:35:00 > 0:35:04Under further questioning, the man remains adamant that he thought

0:35:04 > 0:35:06the police car was an ambulance.

0:35:06 > 0:35:08I did pull over and then he pulled over...

0:35:08 > 0:35:10I tried to pull over that way.

0:35:10 > 0:35:15I pulled over that way, he was doing the same thing, going into the same lane, I was getting confused.

0:35:15 > 0:35:17I genuinely thought it was an ambulance

0:35:17 > 0:35:19and then I pulled over again, and I...

0:35:22 > 0:35:25The police ultimately accept his excuse

0:35:25 > 0:35:27but demand he brushes up his driving skills.

0:35:27 > 0:35:30I asked the male, give him the option of attending

0:35:30 > 0:35:35a considerate drivers course. As long as he attends that course,

0:35:35 > 0:35:41he won't be summonsed to court and he won't receive the points on his driving licence.

0:35:41 > 0:35:43- Your keys, fella?- Yeah!

0:35:44 > 0:35:45I have them.

0:35:45 > 0:35:49I thought it'd be embarrassing if someone stole your car whilst we were dealing with you.

0:35:49 > 0:35:51It's not exactly built for speed!

0:35:51 > 0:35:55- All right. Cheers.- OK, thank you very much. Cheers then. Bye bye.

0:35:55 > 0:35:57Get yourself strapped in, young man.

0:35:57 > 0:36:00Ta-ra then.

0:36:01 > 0:36:04The incident is an example of how the team are involved

0:36:04 > 0:36:05in every type of scenario.

0:36:05 > 0:36:08- Thanks very much for your help. - You're welcome, thank you.

0:36:08 > 0:36:11He wouldn't have stopped for us!

0:36:11 > 0:36:14And the man took their advice, accepting a safe driving course

0:36:14 > 0:36:17instead of getting points on his licence and a hefty fine.

0:36:22 > 0:36:25The local pub has long been the heart of the community

0:36:25 > 0:36:29but sometimes it's not just the lure of beer that brings people to the bar,

0:36:29 > 0:36:31it's the trade and use of illegal drugs on the premises.

0:36:31 > 0:36:36Across the country, pubs have shown evidence of cocaine use in toilets

0:36:36 > 0:36:40and it's a problem landlords want to stamp out.

0:36:40 > 0:36:43Over in Beverley, Inspector Mike Young has assembled the team.

0:36:43 > 0:36:46They're going to be launching a strike, supported by sniffer dogs.

0:36:46 > 0:36:5020 pubs in the area will be hit randomly to send a message

0:36:50 > 0:36:53to anyone who may be thinking of taking drugs in their local.

0:36:53 > 0:36:56The licensing team, supported by divisional colleagues,

0:36:56 > 0:36:58military police, West Yorkshire Police,

0:36:58 > 0:37:01will attend public houses in the East Riding of Yorkshire,

0:37:01 > 0:37:04to conduct passive drug dog testing of patrons.

0:37:04 > 0:37:07Obviously, we're in plain clothes, we'll have a look round,

0:37:07 > 0:37:10just to observe the customers, see what's happening,

0:37:10 > 0:37:13to make sure that when you do enter, several seconds later,

0:37:13 > 0:37:16that if people start diving for the toilets, we will hopefully identify that.

0:37:16 > 0:37:21It is Friday today which means that many of the premises,

0:37:21 > 0:37:22it will be very busy.

0:37:22 > 0:37:26We are looking at premises, there will be a lot of people out there,

0:37:26 > 0:37:28a lot of people who've been out since teatime.

0:37:28 > 0:37:31Got to work, got to be safe and make sure the people are safe where we're going into.

0:37:31 > 0:37:35Fully briefed, the teams head in convoy to Beverley village.

0:37:35 > 0:37:37We're just travelling down into Beverley market-place,

0:37:37 > 0:37:40where the majority of the pubs are. We'll all park up,

0:37:40 > 0:37:45having arrived there, and we'll enter the first pub that's been allocated

0:37:45 > 0:37:47- which I think is- BLEEP.

0:37:47 > 0:37:50Once at the location, a search team of 15 officers,

0:37:50 > 0:37:54supported by Buster, the force's champion sniffer dog,

0:37:54 > 0:37:56make their way to the first pub.

0:37:56 > 0:37:59Most customers are in high spirits and glad to see the police.

0:37:59 > 0:38:01GENERAL CHATTER AND HUBBUB

0:38:04 > 0:38:07With the first pub clear, the search moves on to the next premises.

0:38:08 > 0:38:12We're securing all the locations, like toilets and back doors,

0:38:12 > 0:38:15make sure no-one leaves the premises and then we'll get the drugs dog in

0:38:15 > 0:38:17and do a quick search round.

0:38:17 > 0:38:21Drugs dog will have a little walk and see what he smells!

0:38:21 > 0:38:23GENERAL CHATTER

0:38:27 > 0:38:29The second pub also comes up clean.

0:38:29 > 0:38:33- That's all done here, but we've heard there's problems over at- BLEEP,

0:38:33 > 0:38:35public order so we might have to end over there.

0:38:37 > 0:38:41But the team gets word there could be trouble brewing over the road.

0:38:41 > 0:38:44They reassemble and head to the destination.

0:38:48 > 0:38:50It seems at first a fight may have broken out,

0:38:50 > 0:38:53causing someone to suffer a bloody and bandaged head.

0:38:53 > 0:38:58But the injury wasn't caused so much by a knockout as by a slip-up!

0:38:58 > 0:39:02There's been a gentleman that's been drinking in the pub,

0:39:02 > 0:39:05he's been evicted and he's fallen and banged his head.

0:39:05 > 0:39:09Anyone too rowdy is given a Section 27 notice,

0:39:09 > 0:39:11banning them from the area for 48 hours.

0:39:11 > 0:39:14No, you're not getting fined, you're getting given a warning

0:39:14 > 0:39:17to leave Beverley town centre and not come back.

0:39:19 > 0:39:23The team now split into two. One unit keeps the revellers

0:39:23 > 0:39:27on the street in check, the other goes with Buster and continues their search of the pubs.

0:39:28 > 0:39:30MUSIC AND CHATTER

0:39:31 > 0:39:33All of the pubs in the area have come up clean,

0:39:33 > 0:39:36so the team regroup and head on to the next village.

0:39:38 > 0:39:41The plan now is going to move to Cottingham.

0:39:41 > 0:39:44There's only a few pubs in Beverley

0:39:44 > 0:39:48so it's probably best that we move on to another village.

0:39:48 > 0:39:51It's nice to find something because it makes the job worthwhile,

0:39:51 > 0:39:56coming out and getting the drugs dogs over from West Yorkshire as well.

0:39:56 > 0:40:00Obviously, we would love to find some people with some gear on them.

0:40:01 > 0:40:05Most of the pubs have now been hit but it's the last one on the list

0:40:05 > 0:40:09that turns up a result, thanks to an eagle-eyed plain-clothes copper,

0:40:09 > 0:40:11who joins the search team.

0:40:11 > 0:40:14Er, we went into the beer garden, just to observe a group outside,

0:40:14 > 0:40:16just to see what's happening.

0:40:16 > 0:40:19Like at the briefing, when we were talking about people's movements,

0:40:19 > 0:40:23as soon as the guy observed the drugs dogs, he moved to the fence,

0:40:23 > 0:40:25and I actually saw him with his arm, put something over the fence.

0:40:25 > 0:40:29And I just watched him. He moved a couple of foot away again,

0:40:29 > 0:40:33the drugs dogs came in, I went behind the fence,

0:40:33 > 0:40:36and as I went on the lip of the fence, that little white packet was there.

0:40:36 > 0:40:38And it looked like it had been placed by the guy.

0:40:38 > 0:40:42That's exactly what it is, small bag of white powder which we believe to be drugs.

0:40:42 > 0:40:45He didn't obviously see the plain-clothes officers,

0:40:45 > 0:40:51and as we've walked in, he's thrown a wrap of possibly a Class A drugs behind him, over the wall,

0:40:51 > 0:40:55which we've got and seized so he's been arrested.

0:40:55 > 0:40:58He may have more on him so he's been taken back to the station now

0:40:58 > 0:41:01and he'll be strip-searched to see if he's got any more.

0:41:01 > 0:41:03The man who was arrested was ultimately released without charge,

0:41:03 > 0:41:06as the police decided to take no further action.

0:41:06 > 0:41:09But the exercise proves that the Neighbourhood Team and the dog squad

0:41:09 > 0:41:12can be relied upon to tackle any problem.

0:41:17 > 0:41:20As we've seen, the Neighbourhood Police Teams are there

0:41:20 > 0:41:22to listen to the public.

0:41:22 > 0:41:24But for the scheme to become a long-running success story,

0:41:24 > 0:41:30they have to continue to work with communities and deliver results.

0:41:31 > 0:41:32Coming up next time...

0:41:32 > 0:41:36CCTV cameras are keeping an eye on city life.

0:41:36 > 0:41:40No way! You lied last time, you arrested me!

0:41:40 > 0:41:44The team try to mediate between two warring neighbours...

0:41:44 > 0:41:47I don't even want to be in a room with him.

0:41:47 > 0:41:51Never mind Cash In The Attic, we bring you hash in the attic!

0:41:51 > 0:41:53Get your arms up!

0:41:53 > 0:41:55You're under arrest, mate.
