The friendly, caring bobby

0:00:020:00:03

pounding the beat has always been the hallmark of British policing...

0:00:030:00:07

-Fantastic.

-Pleasure's been all mine, my friend.

0:00:070:00:09

..and has even been immortalised on film by the fictional

0:00:090:00:12

Dixon of Dock Green.

0:00:120:00:13

Good evening, all.

0:00:130:00:14

POLICE SIRENS

0:00:140:00:16

Today's neighbourhood police teams continue that tradition.

0:00:160:00:20

But also tackle the root causes of crime head on...

0:00:200:00:23

SMASHING

0:00:230:00:25

..by targeting known hotspots...

0:00:250:00:26

Unlucky.

0:00:260:00:28

..stamping down on antisocial behaviour...

0:00:280:00:30

I'm arresting you for a public order offence.

0:00:300:00:32

..and waging war on illegal drugs.

0:00:320:00:34

I can smell cannabis already.

0:00:340:00:36

In this new series of Neighbourhood Blues,

0:00:360:00:38

we follow the policemen and women of Somerset, as they continue

0:00:380:00:42

their quest to make our streets a safer place.

0:00:420:00:46

Coming up...

0:01:000:01:01

A woman suspected of stealing hits out...

0:01:010:01:05

-BLEEP!

-..and bares her teeth.

0:01:050:01:07

BLEEP!

0:01:070:01:09

PC Russ Millier faces off with a motorist with no respect.

0:01:090:01:14

-The mood I'm in...

-Why? What are you going to do?

0:01:140:01:17

-I didn't say anything, did I?

-Just as well.

0:01:170:01:19

-What you mean, "just as well"?

-Just as well.

0:01:190:01:21

And a massive crackdown in Weston-super-Mare...

0:01:210:01:24

-RADIO:

-Strike, strike.

0:01:240:01:25

..flushes out illegal drugs.

0:01:250:01:27

We've got it, in the toilet.

0:01:270:01:29

-Yeah, loads.

-Sweet.

0:01:290:01:30

Crime figures are falling and have been for the last 20 years.

0:01:370:01:40

But despite this, people's fear of crime

0:01:400:01:42

and violence is on the increase.

0:01:420:01:45

There is a belief, too, that the police are failing to act

0:01:450:01:47

tough enough on offenders, which is fuelling those fears.

0:01:470:01:51

So, in Somerset, the police are doing something about it,

0:01:530:01:57

with a series of raids targeting serious criminals,

0:01:570:02:00

to help reassure the public.

0:02:000:02:02

Today, in Weston-super-Mare, the neighbourhood team is being

0:02:050:02:08

briefed by an intelligence officer, whose identity needs to be hidden.

0:02:080:02:13

They are about to take part in Operation Amalgamate,

0:02:140:02:17

a huge ongoing police crackdown on serious criminals in the area.

0:02:170:02:21

Amalgamate's been brought together due to the increase in drugs

0:02:210:02:26

and violent offences in Weston-super-Mare.

0:02:260:02:28

Including the drugs offences, there's been an increase in burglary

0:02:280:02:32

and theft-from offences, as well.

0:02:320:02:34

Drug dealing is never a stand-alone issue

0:02:340:02:37

and tends to go hand-in-hand with burglary and antisocial behaviour.

0:02:370:02:42

The intelligence today is as good as we're going to get.

0:02:420:02:45

It's all red hot.

0:02:450:02:46

It is as current as yesterday about where these guys are dealing from.

0:02:460:02:50

Their focus today is on the increasing number

0:02:500:02:53

of out-of-towners who are coming into the area to deal drugs.

0:02:530:02:57

They are a mixture of black and white London males

0:02:570:03:00

and Birmingham males.

0:03:000:03:01

A lot of our intel has come from the community today. They've had enough.

0:03:010:03:05

They really have.

0:03:050:03:06

Five teams of officers are going out to raid six properties.

0:03:070:03:11

And they are prepared for anything.

0:03:110:03:14

Neighbourhood sergeant Colin Batchelor,

0:03:140:03:17

is leading one of the teams whose target is a block of flats.

0:03:170:03:20

We need to get out behind these lot, so get on the van.

0:03:200:03:22

Shaky, come on!

0:03:220:03:24

-You get in and get behind us.

-Yeah, right.

0:03:240:03:27

Let's get in, let's go.

0:03:270:03:29

Operations like this give out the message that

0:03:290:03:32

the police are determined to make the town safe

0:03:320:03:35

and drug dealing will not be tolerated.

0:03:350:03:37

Adrenaline is high.

0:03:410:03:43

No-one knows what they are going to be faced with.

0:03:430:03:46

The lead officer radios with last-minute instructions.

0:03:460:03:50

-RADIO:

-Amalgamate units, move to your holding areas.

0:03:500:03:54

Let me know as soon as you're there.

0:03:540:03:57

Everyone waits for the command to strike.

0:03:570:03:59

Stand by.

0:04:010:04:02

All ten units from Don's end, strike, strike.

0:04:040:04:07

Colin's team are taking things cautiously,

0:04:100:04:12

in case they are spotted by any suspects in the third-floor flat.

0:04:120:04:16

Luckily, the rear communal door is unlocked.

0:04:170:04:20

Now, they don't hold back.

0:04:260:04:29

BANGING

0:04:290:04:30

-Police!

-Police!

0:04:310:04:34

They are through the front door in seconds, quickly finding

0:04:340:04:38

a suspect who, as a precaution, is red dotted with a Taser.

0:04:380:04:42

There's also another lad in the room.

0:04:440:04:46

Gentlemen, morning. Sorry you've had a bit of an early wake-up call.

0:04:460:04:49

You've probably gathered we've got a warrant for the address,

0:04:490:04:52

under the Misuse of Drugs Act.

0:04:520:04:53

What's your name, fella?

0:04:530:04:55

No comment on your name? Well, it's going to be a long day, isn't it?

0:04:560:04:59

-We've got a warrant here to search the premises.

-Search them, then.

0:04:590:05:02

-OK?

-Search them.

-That's why we've come in. Do you understand?

0:05:020:05:06

-I understand, so do it.

-Fine, OK.

0:05:060:05:07

-If you understand it, that's great.

-Yeah, go on, do what you do, yeah.

0:05:070:05:10

All right, there should be... Where is the tenant, the occupier?

0:05:100:05:14

-Don't know.

-You tell me.

-He's not here, obviously.

0:05:140:05:16

-You tell me where he is, innit?

-That's fine, thank you very much.

0:05:160:05:19

Both guys don't appear to be local,

0:05:190:05:22

so they could be the out-of-towners they are looking for.

0:05:220:05:25

There's also drug paraphernalia lying around.

0:05:250:05:28

While the investigation at the flat continues, and with over 50 officers

0:05:330:05:38

involved in today's operation, more teams are striking their targets.

0:05:380:05:42

Boss, we are in position, about a minute away.

0:05:430:05:46

Strike, strike...

0:05:460:05:48

The red enforcer goes into action.

0:05:510:05:54

-WOMAN YELLS

-Come on, Dave, get us in.

0:05:560:05:58

All right, Dave, come away.

0:05:590:06:01

The raid on this house didn't result in any arrests.

0:06:020:06:05

But, having found the remains of possible Class A drugs,

0:06:060:06:10

Colin and HIS team are more hopeful.

0:06:100:06:12

Tell you what, I think the day is going to get better.

0:06:120:06:15

Right, we'll take some photographs.

0:06:150:06:17

Get these two searched.

0:06:170:06:19

The flat's getting a thorough search, too.

0:06:250:06:28

Alice, do you want to take a picture of that, that I've just found

0:06:280:06:31

-on the floor?

-And that one, as well.

0:06:310:06:33

A mobile phone is a good find,

0:06:330:06:36

as it could hold the numbers of drugs contacts.

0:06:360:06:39

This was underneath those.

0:06:390:06:41

And a set of scales could have been used

0:06:410:06:43

to weigh out illegal substances.

0:06:430:06:45

All of the Operation Amalgamate raids

0:06:480:06:51

across Weston have been executed.

0:06:510:06:54

And plenty of drugs paraphernalia is turning up.

0:06:540:06:57

Amalgamate is not just about the raids

0:06:570:06:59

on suspected drug dealers, though.

0:06:590:07:01

It's also about reassuring residents in the area,

0:07:010:07:05

which the local police cadets have volunteered to help with.

0:07:050:07:09

Our job is to engage with members of the public.

0:07:090:07:12

If anybody comes up to you and asks what you're doing,

0:07:120:07:15

you're dealing with Operation Amalgamate, drug crime.

0:07:150:07:20

While the cadets head out to leaflet homes,

0:07:200:07:23

at the flat, there's been a spectacular discovery.

0:07:230:07:27

There's actually ten supplies in the toilet.

0:07:270:07:30

We've got it. It's in the toilet. Yeah, loads.

0:07:300:07:32

It's a huge haul of drugs, all bundled up in cellophane

0:07:350:07:39

and found floating in the lavatory.

0:07:390:07:42

Luckily, the team got in quick enough to seize the drugs.

0:07:520:07:56

On the approach we've seen one of the subjects from the address

0:07:560:07:59

at the window. He's been made aware we're coming.

0:07:590:08:02

We've gone bursting up the stairs. Unfortunately for him,

0:08:020:08:05

he tried to flush this down the toilet.

0:08:050:08:07

Probably due to the size of it, it hasn't flushed.

0:08:070:08:09

Getting a large quantity of crack and heroin off Weston's streets

0:08:090:08:13

has left Russ feeling flushed with success.

0:08:130:08:16

Yeah, I'm really pleased with what we've got so far.

0:08:160:08:20

No more drugs were found in the flat, or on the two lads, who,

0:08:200:08:24

it turned out, WERE out-of-towners, from the Midlands.

0:08:240:08:28

They were both arrested on suspicion of possession

0:08:280:08:30

of Class A drugs, with intent to supply...

0:08:300:08:33

-You all right there?

-..and are currently on bail.

0:08:330:08:36

People shouldn't be living here

0:08:360:08:38

concerned about drug-dealing neighbours.

0:08:380:08:40

A secondary message, as opposed to just locking up the dealers, the

0:08:400:08:44

community needs to know why we're doing it, what we're doing it for

0:08:440:08:48

and that we are doing our best to protect them all.

0:08:480:08:51

Colin wastes no time in relaying that message,

0:08:510:08:54

while the cadets leaflet homes with information.

0:08:540:08:56

It's good that you've come up and had a word,

0:08:560:08:58

because then you can hear it from the horse's mouth.

0:08:580:09:01

It's nice to know you're on top of it.

0:09:010:09:02

We're trying. Absolutely. Absolutely.

0:09:020:09:05

We need to show that we are here and that we won't stand for it.

0:09:050:09:09

And that's part of today, through Weston,

0:09:090:09:11

but it isn't just a one-off, it's an ongoing operation.

0:09:110:09:14

There's a couple of streets off, even the surrounding areas,

0:09:150:09:18

so Grasmere, Osborne...

0:09:180:09:20

Colin suddenly gets a call to return to the flat.

0:09:200:09:23

Just redeploying the cadets etc, mate. I'm just around the corner.

0:09:230:09:28

It's his lucky day. The owner of the flat has now turned up.

0:09:280:09:32

Yes, yes. OK.

0:09:320:09:34

So, we have executed a warrant here today,

0:09:340:09:36

in your property. We were a little bit concerned

0:09:360:09:38

-because we didn't know where you were.

-Yeah.

0:09:380:09:40

Am I going to get arrested?

0:09:400:09:42

Um, I can't say at this stage.

0:09:420:09:44

I can't say yes or no.

0:09:440:09:46

But Colin was able to give him an answer fairly quickly.

0:09:460:09:50

It was very much nicey, nicey, come on inside. Oh, dear,

0:09:500:09:54

there's some drugs in here. I'm sorry, you're under arrest.

0:09:540:09:57

With almost 100 wraps of cocaine

0:09:570:09:59

and heroin - carrying a street value of up to £1,000 - found in the

0:09:590:10:04

toilet, the man was arrested for possession with intention to supply.

0:10:040:10:08

Ten weeks later, the other two suspects originally

0:10:080:10:12

found in the flat, and who are still on bail,

0:10:120:10:15

were stopped in a nearby street by a plain-clothes intelligence

0:10:150:10:18

officer. One of them was found to have cocaine in his possession.

0:10:180:10:23

So the flat was searched again. This time, the flat owner WAS at home.

0:10:230:10:29

The same gentleman was inside, with more drugs.

0:10:290:10:32

As a result of that he was arrested, charged with the drugs offences,

0:10:320:10:36

and, subsequently, is spending time at Her Majesty's pleasure.

0:10:360:10:40

This time, an even bigger haul of heroin and crack cocaine was found,

0:10:400:10:45

worth almost £7,000.

0:10:450:10:48

Approximately 350 wraps of controlled substances.

0:10:480:10:53

For us, here, it was what I would term as very substantial.

0:10:530:10:57

And so did the courts, as they sentenced him

0:10:570:11:00

to 28 months in prison, which might well be extended when

0:11:000:11:04

the investigation into the drugs found in his toilet is completed.

0:11:040:11:08

Since Operation Amalgamate was launched, there have been

0:11:080:11:11

a total of 33 arrests, with almost half of them

0:11:110:11:15

being out-of-towners from big cities around the UK.

0:11:150:11:19

Almost £1 million-worth of drugs,

0:11:190:11:21

and £750,000 in cash has been seized.

0:11:210:11:26

With this success, the operation is set to continue.

0:11:260:11:29

Being a victim of crime can be extremely traumatic.

0:11:360:11:40

And returning home to discover you've had

0:11:400:11:42

a break-in can be one of the most distressing experiences imaginable.

0:11:420:11:47

But what if an intruder enters your house while you're still at home?

0:11:470:11:52

In Bridgwater, neighbourhood officer Tex Freeman has just

0:11:550:11:58

started his shift and is responding to an emergency 999 call.

0:11:580:12:04

We've got a lady who's phoned up. She's pregnant,

0:12:040:12:06

children in the building, in her flat,

0:12:060:12:07

and some male, who she doesn't know,

0:12:070:12:09

has walked in and she thinks that he is under the influence of drugs.

0:12:090:12:13

The expectant mother is too scared to tackle him

0:12:130:12:17

and if the guy IS on drugs, she, and her children, could be

0:12:170:12:21

at risk, so there's no time to waste.

0:12:210:12:24

SIREN WAILS With their years of experience,

0:12:260:12:28

both officers have learned to expect the unexpected,

0:12:280:12:32

unlike the shocked woman that's called them.

0:12:320:12:35

Surprisingly, the intruder is still here and taking a nap.

0:12:380:12:43

You all right?

0:12:430:12:44

Do you know why we are here?

0:12:450:12:47

It's all right, darling.

0:12:470:12:49

Any idea why we're here?

0:12:490:12:50

You come over here, darling.

0:12:510:12:53

It's not your flat.

0:12:530:12:55

What you doing here, buddy?

0:12:550:12:57

-I tried telling him to go and everything. It's so weird.

-You all right?

0:12:570:12:59

He's obviously confused and he's clearly NOT a dangerous intruder.

0:12:590:13:04

Did the girls' breakfast, we were all sat down for breakfast

0:13:040:13:07

and this random guy just decides to walk in!

0:13:070:13:09

-And that's when the police come in.

-Yeah.

0:13:090:13:11

He just walked into the kitchen.

0:13:110:13:13

-Whereabouts do you live, buddy?

-Um...

0:13:130:13:16

-Not here.

-Just...

0:13:160:13:17

In this block somewhere?

0:13:230:13:25

Do you realise you've walked into someone else's flat?

0:13:250:13:27

It's beginning to dawn on the lad that he actually

0:13:300:13:33

lives in the flat downstairs.

0:13:330:13:35

But he's still a bit confused.

0:13:350:13:37

What have you been up to? Where have you been before you came here?

0:13:370:13:40

-You don't know?

-No.

0:13:420:13:43

-Have you taken anything?

-No, um...

0:13:430:13:45

OK.

0:13:570:13:58

All right. We've got ambulance people here, anyway,

0:13:590:14:02

so if you're happy for them to check you over?

0:14:020:14:04

Yeah?

0:14:040:14:05

If the guy has had some kind of seizure,

0:14:050:14:08

it could have temporarily affected his memory and his behaviour.

0:14:080:14:12

Considering I'm pregnant, as well, if he turned like... God!

0:14:120:14:18

-I was shaking. I had to rush back from work just to see...

-Were you here or...?

0:14:180:14:22

No, I had to leave work, just to see if everything was all right.

0:14:220:14:26

Thankfully, the lad hasn't harmed anyone.

0:14:260:14:28

But, incredibly, he's run himself a bath

0:14:280:14:31

and has slipped into some of the woman's clothes.

0:14:310:14:34

He went to the wardrobe, got one of my jumpers out

0:14:340:14:36

and just randomly took it.

0:14:360:14:39

And then, just sat on the sofa and started chilling out.

0:14:390:14:42

Sounds as if he was settling in nicely.

0:14:420:14:45

It's not your top.

0:14:450:14:47

OFFICER LAUGHS

0:14:470:14:49

While the bewildered visitor is taken back

0:14:490:14:51

to his flat for a check-up,

0:14:510:14:53

Tex gives HIM a check-up on the police computer.

0:14:530:14:57

Yes, can I have Code One Person, BNC, please?

0:14:570:15:00

Back in his own flat downstairs, he is still baffled by what he's done.

0:15:000:15:05

Any headaches?

0:15:050:15:07

Blurred vision?

0:15:070:15:09

Nausea?

0:15:090:15:10

Are you aware of what's happened? Can you remember anything?

0:15:110:15:14

That's the first time that's ever happened.

0:15:140:15:16

The first time ever.

0:15:160:15:18

Fortunately, the lad doesn't need any hospital attention

0:15:180:15:21

and has never been in trouble with the police before,

0:15:210:15:24

so Tex is confident his behaviour was a one-off.

0:15:240:15:28

There's going to be no further action, from our point of view, OK?

0:15:280:15:32

Is there anything else from us you need at all? No?

0:15:320:15:36

OK, we will speak to her and reassure her upstairs,

0:15:360:15:38

because obviously...

0:15:380:15:40

with kids, she was a bit...

0:15:400:15:41

No problem on that, mate.

0:15:410:15:43

We'll go and speak to her.

0:15:430:15:45

Take care, mate.

0:15:450:15:47

-Hello. Is it all right if we come in a minute?

-Hiya! Yeah, yeah. Come in.

0:15:480:15:51

Hiya. He sends his million apologies. He can't remember.

0:15:510:15:55

If you're happy with that, he's, you know...

0:15:550:15:57

-Yeah.

-There's nothing, no offence...

-Yeah, that's fine.

0:15:570:15:59

-Obviously, it's startling and...

-Just rushed back from work to see what it was!

-Yeah.

0:15:590:16:03

They say it's no use locking the stable door after the horse

0:16:030:16:07

has bolted, but Tex doesn't subscribe to that, for a moment.

0:16:070:16:10

-I mean, the only thing I'd say is, after today...

-Keep the door locked!

0:16:100:16:14

Yeah. Keep the door locked.

0:16:140:16:16

But if you're happy with that. No worries, buddy. No worries.

0:16:160:16:19

-Thanks!

-Take care.

-Say goodbye!

0:16:190:16:21

Still to come on Neighbourhood Blues...

0:16:280:16:30

SHE SCREAMS

0:16:300:16:32

Dom gets injured in the line of duty.

0:16:320:16:34

Well, she sunk her teeth into my arm, unfortunately.

0:16:340:16:37

I need to get that checked out, ASAP.

0:16:370:16:39

And Weston-super-Mare...

0:16:390:16:40

I love bikes!

0:16:400:16:41

..goes motocross mad.

0:16:410:16:43

I'd like to be out there, giving it a go, to be quite honest!

0:16:430:16:46

Although it's the neighbourhood police that are primarily

0:16:520:16:55

responsible for tackling crime in an area,

0:16:550:16:58

when it comes to shoplifting, effective policing relies heavily on

0:16:580:17:02

partnerships with CCTV operators and the shop's own security services.

0:17:020:17:07

Last year, shoplifting cost UK retailers more than £600 million.

0:17:100:17:15

And, inevitably, it's honest customers that are hit in the pocket

0:17:170:17:21

when stores have to pass on their losses by putting up their prices.

0:17:210:17:26

In Bridgewater, a considerable 12% of all crime is down

0:17:280:17:33

to shoplifting, as Inspector Andy Pritchard knows only too well.

0:17:330:17:37

Bridgewater has a large shopping area

0:17:370:17:41

and shoplifting is a local issue and a local concern,

0:17:410:17:45

especially at the moment, with times of financial hardship,

0:17:450:17:50

so it does feature in the priorities for the local policing team.

0:17:500:17:54

As well as retailers,

0:17:550:17:57

the police work closely with the council's CCTV team.

0:17:570:18:00

Although the high street is quiet today,

0:18:060:18:08

their cameras are always on the lookout.

0:18:080:18:11

And they've been alerted to a man with a satchel who's just

0:18:110:18:14

left a pharmacy store.

0:18:140:18:16

He is quickly followed by another man in jeans and a jumper -

0:18:170:18:21

the store detective - who believes he has stolen

0:18:210:18:24

several bottles of perfume.

0:18:240:18:27

SIREN WAILS

0:18:280:18:31

A description of the suspect goes out to neighbourhood officers.

0:18:310:18:34

Dom Bryant is in direct contact with CCTV

0:18:410:18:45

and the high-street shops through their own radio network.

0:18:450:18:49

Yeah, I'm on the radio, I'm going to get him to guide me in.

0:18:490:18:51

-RADIO:

-Brilliant, standing by.

-SIREN WAILS

0:18:510:18:54

The police take a strong line on shoplifting

0:18:540:18:57

and some members of the public take a strong view.

0:18:570:19:01

I think shoplifters should be birched, personally.

0:19:010:19:03

Shop retailers put their prices up, which affects

0:19:030:19:06

everybody else. It makes everything else a bit more expensive.

0:19:060:19:10

I can't really understand what goes through their minds, really,

0:19:100:19:13

to even do something like that.

0:19:130:19:14

It happens a lot. I've seen it happen myself.

0:19:140:19:17

The store detective has monitored a male at Boots the chemist.

0:19:200:19:24

He's selected some fragrances, placed them in his bag

0:19:240:19:27

and has left the store making no attempt to pay.

0:19:270:19:30

The store detective is still following the suspect and is

0:19:330:19:36

encouraging the man to hand over the bottles of perfume he's taken.

0:19:360:19:40

But he's convinced there are more.

0:19:420:19:45

The suspect is determined to get away.

0:19:470:19:49

But CCTV still has him in their sights

0:19:520:19:55

and have passed his movements on to Dom, over the dedicated radio link.

0:19:550:19:59

He's monitored him going through the back streets, behind the shops.

0:20:020:20:08

And we're going to go and track him down.

0:20:080:20:11

The suspect could find somewhere to hide now,

0:20:150:20:17

as he goes out of range of the cameras.

0:20:170:20:20

SIREN WAILS Dom puts his foot down.

0:20:220:20:25

344, for an update.

0:20:260:20:28

Two more neighbourhood officers listening in join the hunt

0:20:280:20:31

and rush to the area where the man was last seen by the CCTV cameras.

0:20:310:20:36

All of a sudden, the CCTV cameras pick the suspects back up again.

0:20:400:20:44

And calmly, he's been detained.

0:20:460:20:48

A quick-witted PCSO has saved the day.

0:20:530:20:56

But as he doesn't have the power to arrest the man...

0:20:560:20:59

..he can only detain him until a police officer arrives.

0:21:000:21:03

-Billy's with him.

-All right.

0:21:050:21:07

It just shows, whilst he is on foot, he was there,

0:21:070:21:10

he knew where the chap was going and had him detained.

0:21:100:21:13

The neighbourhood officers arrive within minutes and soon find

0:21:130:21:16

another bottle of perfume that he hadn't handed over earlier.

0:21:160:21:19

Dom's over the moon with new recruit, Billy,

0:21:190:21:22

because he's HIS rookie!

0:21:220:21:25

My man there I'm training, apprehended him. Billy, brilliant.

0:21:250:21:29

On foot patrol in town centre, that's what it's all about.

0:21:290:21:32

Apprehended the male, one in custody, no problem at all.

0:21:320:21:35

Items have been recovered.

0:21:350:21:36

The arrest is testimony to the teamwork involved in policing

0:21:360:21:40

the town centre.

0:21:400:21:41

I had CCTV called up on the airwaves. I encountered him,

0:21:410:21:46

sort of, running up the street and I said, wait with me,

0:21:460:21:48

while the officers who were en route got there.

0:21:480:21:50

Job done.

0:21:500:21:52

It's imperative we got there sooner rather than later,

0:21:530:21:57

for Billy's safety.

0:21:570:21:59

The guy is off to Bridgwater custody suite.

0:21:590:22:01

Right, matey. Mind your head.

0:22:020:22:04

All right, we'll get those bracelets off in a minute.

0:22:060:22:08

The man is beginning to regret what he's done.

0:22:080:22:11

-White, British?

-Yes.

0:22:110:22:12

Not thinking, just... Me being me, I think.

0:22:120:22:16

I've just took 'em, ain't I? Got something for my missus,

0:22:170:22:20

something for her daughter.

0:22:200:22:21

Got caught by the security guard.

0:22:230:22:25

What an idiot!

0:22:260:22:28

My missus is going to go mad!

0:22:290:22:31

As well as facing his other half, the shoplifter also had to

0:22:310:22:35

face court, where he pleaded guilty to the theft of the perfume.

0:22:350:22:39

He was given a nine-month conditional discharge

0:22:390:22:42

and made to pay £205, in costs and charges.

0:22:420:22:46

For Dom, the arrest was a triumph for good communication

0:22:460:22:50

and good old-fashioned coppering.

0:22:500:22:52

Police driving around in police cars would have missed that.

0:22:520:22:56

It just shows how important foot patrol and local knowledge is.

0:22:560:23:00

It's everything in the town.

0:23:000:23:02

No sooner has Dom got a prisoner locked up,

0:23:020:23:04

than he's back out on patrol.

0:23:040:23:06

Yeah, any problems, you give me a shout.

0:23:060:23:09

Although the shoplifting arrest went smoothly, not ALL arrests do

0:23:090:23:13

and Dom likes to keep on his toes, should a suspect turn nasty.

0:23:130:23:18

I've been doing sport and fitness all my life,

0:23:180:23:20

I'm not saying I'm better or bigger

0:23:200:23:22

or faster than anybody, but let me tell you something now...

0:23:220:23:25

..there's no substitute for fitness and inner core strength.

0:23:270:23:30

Inner power.

0:23:300:23:31

Once again, CCTV is keeping an eye out for trouble in the town centre.

0:23:310:23:37

And a drunk has been spotted causing a disturbance.

0:23:370:23:40

OK, I'll have another lap round and take a look at him.

0:23:400:23:44

You all right, fella?

0:23:440:23:45

What you up to?

0:23:450:23:47

Can you put your can away, please, mate?

0:23:470:23:49

There's no drinking in this area.

0:23:490:23:50

CCTV has been watching and is concerned about your behaviour.

0:23:500:23:53

Who has?

0:23:560:23:57

The drinker says he's been robbed by a woman.

0:23:570:24:00

Dom needs to get him to calm down

0:24:000:24:02

and tries to make sense of what he's saying.

0:24:020:24:05

Suddenly, the man spots the woman he says robbed him,

0:24:060:24:10

standing outside an Italian restaurant across the road.

0:24:100:24:14

And he heads straight for her.

0:24:140:24:16

-Yeah, you did it!

-Really, really?!

-Whoa, whoa, you stay here with me.

0:24:160:24:19

I'm all right, I'm all right.

0:24:190:24:21

The woman ALSO appears to have been drinking.

0:24:210:24:23

Dom's colleague takes her to one side to get HER version of events.

0:24:230:24:28

A member of staff from the restaurant tells Dom that

0:24:290:24:32

he believes the woman, and another man, have had a meal

0:24:320:24:36

and have left without paying their bill.

0:24:360:24:38

And the guy she was with is now taking the opportunity to scarper.

0:24:380:24:43

It's all happening at once...

0:24:430:24:44

-< MAN:

-Excuse me?

0:24:440:24:46

This gentleman is springing about like a jack-in-the-box.

0:24:460:24:49

Trying to keep him calm. On the point of being arrested,

0:24:490:24:53

two made off from Prezzo without paying for their dinner.

0:24:530:24:57

Get over here, mate.

0:24:570:24:59

The confusion continues.

0:25:000:25:02

She may have left there without paying.

0:25:020:25:04

SHE BLOWS A RASPBERRY

0:25:040:25:05

Yeah! Yeah, exactly! They've been in there.

0:25:050:25:07

They've been in there together. They're robbers, man!

0:25:070:25:10

The restaurant manager comes over

0:25:100:25:12

and confirms that the woman has indeed left without paying.

0:25:120:25:15

SHOUTING OVER ONE ANOTHER

0:25:150:25:18

< They're robbers. They're robbers.

0:25:180:25:20

But he's giving her a second chance to pay up.

0:25:200:25:23

Dom now questions the guy about the alleged robbery.

0:25:240:25:27

My pocket was like that. She hugged me and dipped in my pocket, man.

0:25:280:25:32

I'm not having that!

0:25:320:25:33

Within minutes, the woman's back out of the restaurant

0:25:330:25:37

and it's becoming apparent she and her accuser are acquaintances.

0:25:370:25:42

What's it all about, like?

0:25:420:25:43

-What's it all about?

-Why did you leave me?

0:25:430:25:45

And why are you with...?

0:25:450:25:48

-I could have anything now.

-He just bought me a meal in there.

0:25:480:25:52

No! Oh, what? Oh, what?!

0:25:520:25:55

-No. You left me!

-I didn't leave you!

0:25:550:25:59

Dom's colleague has found out

0:26:000:26:01

that she's still refusing to pay the bill, which is a whopping...

0:26:010:26:05

-£119.05. So you either go in and pay it now or you're getting nicked.

-Pay the bill! Pay the bill!

0:26:050:26:11

No! I was with somebody...

0:26:110:26:14

She claims that the guy she was with was going to pay,

0:26:140:26:17

but he's legged it, leaving her to face the music.

0:26:170:26:20

Right, then, I am arresting you on suspicion of bilking.

0:26:200:26:22

-You do not have to say anything, but it may harm your defence...

-Uh, uh, of what, sorry?

0:26:220:26:26

Bilking, is a term used

0:26:260:26:27

when someone deliberately runs off without paying.

0:26:270:26:31

And with her second chance gone, the woman is now off to the nick.

0:26:310:26:35

-No!

-Will you get in the van?

-Yeah, I'm going to get in your

-BLEEP

-van!

0:26:350:26:39

-Can I have your bumbag, please?

-No!

0:26:390:26:41

Her bag needs to be confiscated, in case she's got anything in it

0:26:410:26:45

she could harm herself with.

0:26:450:26:46

-Yes!

-I want

-BLEEP!

-Don't!

0:26:460:26:50

-Come and sit here.

-Don't touch me! Have it!

0:26:500:26:54

-SCREAMS:

-BLEEP

-have it!

-Thank you very much.

0:26:540:26:57

Thank you, yeah!

0:26:570:26:59

Obviously, there is some history between the female arrested

0:27:020:27:05

and this young man.

0:27:050:27:06

So, yeah, she's been arrested for...stuffing her face

0:27:070:27:11

and not paying for it.

0:27:110:27:13

Now, the man's friend has been arrested,

0:27:130:27:16

he's given up his robbery claim.

0:27:160:27:18

We're going to have to deal with this one.

0:27:180:27:20

She seems a bit more lively, unfortunately.

0:27:200:27:22

This could be a noisy ride. The woman's kicking off.

0:27:220:27:25

Yeah? And what? And what? And what?

0:27:270:27:30

It's human rights to be told what you're being charged with!

0:27:300:27:36

It's my basic human rights and you're not telling me!

0:27:370:27:40

Karen, you're not being charged with anything at...

0:27:400:27:43

-You're not

-BLEEP

-telling me!

-CONTINUOUS BLEEPED SWEARING

0:27:430:27:46

You wait!

0:27:460:27:48

And you wonder why people hate you?!

0:27:480:27:51

BANGING ON WINDOWS

0:27:510:27:53

This is just a lot of hot air. She's not going to hurt the van.

0:27:530:27:55

She'll hurt herself, more like. It's only slapping it with her hand.

0:27:550:27:59

You wait! Wait! Wait!

0:27:590:28:01

The woman may be full of hot air, but that's not all,

0:28:030:28:08

judging by the restaurant receipt.

0:28:080:28:10

She was talking about having Champagne earlier, as well.

0:28:100:28:13

Yeah, 60 quid.

0:28:130:28:15

A £60 bottle of champagne?

0:28:150:28:17

Well, she's gone into the restaurant,

0:28:170:28:19

eaten a £120 meal and thinks she's got a right to leave without paying?

0:28:190:28:22

She thinks that's not a problem.

0:28:220:28:24

What actually have I been charged with?

0:28:250:28:29

ALARM WAILS

0:28:310:28:34

They've now arrived at Bridgwater police station.

0:28:340:28:37

And the noisy passenger seems to have calmed down.

0:28:370:28:41

So, calmed down?

0:28:420:28:44

SHE GIGGLES

0:28:440:28:46

Do you want a hand from there or not? Right.

0:28:460:28:48

SHE MUTTERS INCOHERENTLY

0:28:480:28:51

Oh!

0:28:510:28:52

Can I ask you what I've been arrested for? I don't know.

0:28:540:28:57

You left the restaurant without paying for the meal.

0:28:570:28:59

Excuse me. Excuse me, sir.

0:28:590:29:02

The gentleman I was with said he was going to pay,

0:29:020:29:05

so how could you possibly arrest me?

0:29:050:29:07

After her fine dining, it's time for a brisk walk.

0:29:070:29:11

No! I'm going to... No! Don't even touch me, right?!

0:29:110:29:14

Don't touch me!

0:29:140:29:16

Get away from me!

0:29:160:29:17

Don't!

0:29:170:29:19

Yeah? Really? BLEEP!

0:29:200:29:23

Dealing with aggressive suspects is never easy

0:29:240:29:27

and this one is a real handful.

0:29:270:29:29

Get off me!

0:29:290:29:30

It's taking two strong men to subdue the hostile woman.

0:29:300:29:34

I'm also arresting...

0:29:350:29:36

SHE SCREAMS

0:29:360:29:38

..relied on in court, anything you do say may be given in evidence.

0:29:390:29:42

-LAUGHING:

-Right.

0:29:420:29:44

Suddenly, things turn really serious.

0:29:450:29:48

Get off me! Get off me!

0:29:510:29:52

She sunk her teeth into Dom's colleague's arm,

0:29:520:29:57

biting off more than she can chew this time.

0:29:570:30:00

Assaulting a police officer

0:30:000:30:02

while carrying out his or her duty is a serious offence,

0:30:020:30:06

leading to a possible prison sentence.

0:30:060:30:09

-No! No!

-Are you going to listen to me, Karen?

-No, I ain't!

0:30:090:30:12

Why am I going to go in here?!

0:30:120:30:14

BLEEP! BLEEP!

0:30:150:30:17

Yeah?! Yeah?! Yeah?!

0:30:170:30:20

Yeah, come on! Come on!

0:30:200:30:22

The woman is off to the cells, where she can cool off.

0:30:220:30:25

Tricky customers like her are all in a day's work

0:30:250:30:28

for the custody sergeant.

0:30:280:30:31

Unfortunately, we see many people like the young woman

0:30:310:30:35

that has just been brought in.

0:30:350:30:37

Weekly, sometimes daily, from somewhere,

0:30:370:30:41

"quite regularly."

0:30:410:30:42

SHE SHOUTS

0:30:420:30:44

Turn around, turn around, turn around.

0:30:440:30:46

Because the woman's behaviour is so unpredictable,

0:30:460:30:49

she is put in a cell where she can be monitored on CCTV.

0:30:490:30:54

But she still needs to be searched and it takes the strength

0:30:540:30:57

of several officers to restrain her.

0:30:570:30:59

No, don't you take that jewellery off me! No!

0:30:590:31:03

-No! No! No!

-Calm down.

0:31:030:31:05

Eventually, she runs out of steam.

0:31:050:31:08

I tried to talk to you at the desk, but you wouldn't listen to me,

0:31:080:31:11

would you?

0:31:110:31:13

And now, she can be searched properly.

0:31:130:31:16

Well done. Up a bit, up a bit.

0:31:160:31:18

Nothing of significance is found and she is left to rest,

0:31:180:31:22

but Dom's NOT taking any chances.

0:31:220:31:25

SHE SHOUTS

0:31:250:31:28

OK, but we'll just keep an eye on her, just so we know a bit more.

0:31:310:31:34

Last year, there were an alarming 113 assaults on police officers

0:31:380:31:43

in Avon and Somerset.

0:31:430:31:45

And during the struggle in the cell, Dom added to that number.

0:31:450:31:49

Well, she sunk her teeth into my arm, unfortunately.

0:31:490:31:52

So, I need to get that checked out ASAP, for obvious reasons.

0:31:520:31:57

I'm disappointed in myself, really, for letting it happen.

0:31:570:31:59

Obviously, it's a serious invasion of my privacy.

0:32:010:32:04

Being punched and kicked is one thing, but when someone has actually

0:32:040:32:08

sunk her teeth into you and drawn blood,

0:32:080:32:10

that is something else. That is a real invasion of privacy.

0:32:100:32:13

I don't like it, personally.

0:32:130:32:15

Yeah? Yeah?!

0:32:150:32:17

The woman pleaded guilty to invading Dom's privacy,

0:32:170:32:21

with her teeth, and also for biting Dom's partner and was sentenced

0:32:210:32:26

to five months in prison for ABH - actual bodily harm.

0:32:260:32:30

She also pleaded guilty to making off without payment

0:32:300:32:34

from the restaurant, for which she got seven days in prison

0:32:340:32:37

and had to pay £119 in compensation to cover the unpaid bill.

0:32:370:32:42

WOMAN SHOUTS

0:32:420:32:44

Her dinner date who ran off carried on running

0:32:460:32:49

and it was three months before police caught up with him.

0:32:490:32:53

Fortunately for him, he was not charged,

0:32:530:32:55

because the woman took the rap.

0:32:550:32:58

As a dedicated fitness and motorbike fan...

0:32:590:33:02

See, no sting, no pain.

0:33:020:33:04

..Dom makes sure his hand is still functioning.

0:33:040:33:08

As long as I can twist that throttle on my days off,

0:33:090:33:11

as long as I can get to circuit training...

0:33:110:33:14

You are worth your weight in gold, Dom.

0:33:140:33:16

..do my hill sprints, tyre flips, squat thrusts and burpees, I'll be happy.

0:33:160:33:20

If anything impairs that, that is when my Yin and Yang do not add up.

0:33:200:33:24

Bzzz!!

0:33:240:33:26

Policing a neighbourhood relies on a good relationship

0:33:320:33:35

between its inhabitants and the police.

0:33:350:33:37

People who trust and accept the authority of the police

0:33:370:33:40

are far more likely to obey the law.

0:33:400:33:43

But, unfortunately, there are always some chancers that show no respect

0:33:430:33:48

for either the police or the law.

0:33:480:33:52

WHISTLING

0:33:520:33:54

Today, neighbourhood officer Russ Millier is patrolling his patch

0:33:540:33:59

in Weston-super-Mare, always on the lookout for criminals.

0:33:590:34:03

And he has just spotted a known banned driver get into a car.

0:34:030:34:08

He's got in it.

0:34:080:34:09

Oh-ho. Game on.

0:34:090:34:12

-I don't think he's got a licence.

-Really?

0:34:120:34:15

Russ double-checks with the PNC -

0:34:150:34:18

the Police National Computer.

0:34:180:34:20

Confirm, it's expired, substantive, yeah?

0:34:230:34:26

If someone is banned from driving,

0:34:260:34:29

their licence is automatically cancelled.

0:34:290:34:32

He is pulling over to stop.

0:34:330:34:35

Time for a chat with the driver.

0:34:350:34:38

-Is your licence still in doubt?

-No.

0:34:380:34:40

It's currently expired with the DVLA.

0:34:400:34:42

-And the photographs.

-To do what?

0:34:450:34:46

Right.

0:34:480:34:49

Yeah.

0:34:500:34:51

Yeah.

0:34:530:34:54

Yeah.

0:34:560:34:57

OK.

0:34:590:35:00

If the driver doesn't have a licence in place,

0:35:000:35:03

his insurance is not valid, which is also a crime.

0:35:030:35:06

So, Russ has invited the man into the back of his car,

0:35:060:35:10

while he double-checks with the DVLA.

0:35:100:35:13

What he is saying is, he is coming off of a ban.

0:35:130:35:17

He has come off the ban, the ban has finished

0:35:170:35:20

and he has, apparently, applied for a new licence.

0:35:200:35:24

Right, there is nothing in the pipeline, whatsoever?

0:35:240:35:26

Cheers, then. Bye-bye.

0:35:260:35:27

That is direct from the DVLA.

0:35:270:35:29

Nothing whatsoever in the pipeline to even issue a licence,

0:35:290:35:32

let alone know that you are coming off the ban.

0:35:320:35:35

But you have got no licence.

0:35:370:35:39

You haven't. You have got no licence with the DVLA.

0:35:410:35:43

Because you were banned...

0:35:460:35:48

Yes, and you lost your licence.

0:35:490:35:50

You don't just automatically get a licence reissued.

0:35:500:35:52

You have to apply for a licence.

0:35:520:35:54

They're saying you haven't. They have received nothing whatsoever

0:35:540:35:58

from you to say, "I want a new licence back."

0:35:580:36:01

Russ is getting very tired of this conversation.

0:36:020:36:05

Arguing about whether they received it or not is irrelevant.

0:36:050:36:09

The point is, you've got no licence,

0:36:090:36:11

because they have not issued you a licence. You are driving a vehicle

0:36:110:36:14

on a road with no licence.

0:36:140:36:15

The man has no respect for the law.

0:36:150:36:18

With no licence and, consequently, no insurance,

0:36:180:36:22

his car is now going to be seized.

0:36:220:36:25

Where's my wallet?

0:36:250:36:26

Tough luck, cos it is coming with us. The car is coming with us

0:36:260:36:29

and he will be reported again for driving with no licence.

0:36:290:36:33

I want the paperwork.

0:36:330:36:34

Got to sit in the car if you want a form.

0:36:350:36:37

He has tried it on and it hasn't worked.

0:36:370:36:40

So, his vehicle will be seized and he will go on his way,

0:36:400:36:43

without his car.

0:36:430:36:45

Hearing his car is about to be seized has put a serious dent

0:36:450:36:48

in the driver's already stony relationship with Russ.

0:36:480:36:51

You'd probably call 101.

0:36:530:36:55

Out of order? I'll tell you what is out of order -

0:36:570:37:00

-you driving...

-I'm making a complaint.

-You crack on.

0:37:000:37:03

Cos you know what? This is authorised by an inspector.

0:37:030:37:06

I have just spoken to him. Don't drive around with no licence,

0:37:060:37:08

simple as that.

0:37:080:37:10

I am perfectly within my rights to put in a complaint.

0:37:100:37:12

Yeah, and I said...

0:37:120:37:15

-Don't! Cos I ain't worried about it!

-..crack on.

0:37:150:37:17

-The mood I am in...

-Well, what are you going to do?

0:37:170:37:20

-I didn't say anything, did I?

-Just as well.

0:37:200:37:22

-What do you mean, "Just as well"?!

-Just as well.

0:37:220:37:24

Who do you think you are talking to? Talk to me with respect, same as I

0:37:240:37:28

-talk to you with respect.

-Tell you what, you have been dealt with

0:37:280:37:31

with the utmost respect, ever since I have been with you.

0:37:310:37:33

If you want to get chopsy, because your vehicle is seized,

0:37:330:37:36

that is your issue. Don't expect me to pamper up to you cos you have

0:37:360:37:39

had your vehicle seized and you are angry.

0:37:390:37:41

-Pamper up!

-That is exactly what you're asking me to do.

0:37:410:37:43

The debate continues.

0:37:430:37:46

You show me respect and I'll show you respect back.

0:37:460:37:49

-I've treated you with nothing but respect.

-No, you haven't.

0:37:490:37:51

Yeah, so you could get your dad to collect it, if you wanted to.

0:37:570:38:00

He'd just have to show insurance for him to drive it, which he's got.

0:38:000:38:03

Insurance, MOT. Or your sister.

0:38:030:38:07

Yep, as long as she's got a driving licence.

0:38:070:38:09

Yeah, thank you for that. See you again.

0:38:120:38:14

The driver of the car clearly has an issue.

0:38:160:38:19

He thinks he is being picked on. It is not the case.

0:38:190:38:22

You know, unfortunately, if you're going to go around committing crime

0:38:220:38:25

and drive with no licence, you'll get pulled over.

0:38:250:38:28

It turns out that the car is owned by the man's dad,

0:38:280:38:32

who has just found out that it is getting taken away.

0:38:320:38:35

But he is driving around with no licence.

0:38:370:38:39

Right, the DVLA have no record whatsoever.

0:38:410:38:44

Listen, I am not going to have this argument with you,

0:38:440:38:48

because I have just had it... The issue is, whether he sent it

0:38:480:38:51

or not is irrelevant. It is whether the DVLA have issued

0:38:510:38:54

the licence. The DVLA can turn round and say,

0:38:540:38:56

"We're not giving it back." It is their right to do that.

0:38:560:38:58

OK, see you later. Bye.

0:38:580:38:59

A very angry dad.

0:39:020:39:04

He may as well just be driving around with nothing whatsoever,

0:39:040:39:07

cos with no driving licence, his insurance is not valid.

0:39:070:39:10

So, if he hits someone, hits another car...

0:39:100:39:13

God forbid, he hits a child or a member of the public...

0:39:130:39:16

he is looking at a lot more than a ban.

0:39:160:39:18

And someone is looking at loss of life.

0:39:180:39:20

The car was collected from the recovery agent the following day

0:39:210:39:25

by a woman who was legally insured to drive the car.

0:39:250:39:28

And the illegal driver is still being investigated.

0:39:280:39:31

There is no doubt biker Dom from Bridgwater

0:39:390:39:42

would love what is going on in Weston-super-Mare today.

0:39:420:39:45

It is hosting one of Europe's biggest action-sports events,

0:39:450:39:49

the Pro Nationals Motocross Festival.

0:39:490:39:52

-ANNOUNCER:

-The first action of the day is going to be

0:39:520:39:54

the monster truck.

0:39:540:39:56

Around 10,000 spectators are expected to turn up and, as usual,

0:40:030:40:08

with a big event like this,

0:40:080:40:09

the neighbourhood team are out and about.

0:40:090:40:12

Susan Venn-Adams is one of the PCSOs on duty today

0:40:120:40:16

-and, like Dom, she is a bike nut.

-I love bikes. I am terrible.

0:40:160:40:20

I am a sucker for a motorbike.

0:40:200:40:22

Yeah, I would like to be out there giving it a go, to be quite honest.

0:40:220:40:26

Joining the neighbourhood team are the local volunteer police cadets.

0:40:260:40:29

POP MUSIC PLAYS

0:40:290:40:31

I hope you like loud music!

0:40:310:40:33

They are the face of Avon and Somerset. They are our future.

0:40:340:40:37

They are what we are all about. It gives them a good experience

0:40:370:40:40

of neighbourhood policing. Something like this is really, really good

0:40:400:40:44

for them to gain experience and to be able to connect with the public,

0:40:440:40:48

like we do on an everyday basis.

0:40:480:40:51

I really like being part of the police cadets,

0:40:510:40:53

because I think it is really good experience for my future life and

0:40:530:40:55

I get to interact with the public and see really cool events, as well.

0:40:550:40:58

There are nine cadet units across the constabulary

0:40:580:41:02

and any 14-to-17-year-old can sign up.

0:41:020:41:07

Neighbourhood officers give up their spare time

0:41:070:41:10

to instruct these teenagers, some of whom are sharing a skill

0:41:100:41:13

they have learnt from cadet leader Ray Bradley.

0:41:130:41:16

Behind me, you can see that we do fingerprinting. We can simulate

0:41:210:41:25

the scene of a burglary, where they have fingerprinted a window,

0:41:250:41:29

and we take the fingerprints from the window.

0:41:290:41:32

But it is not all CSI for the cadets.

0:41:330:41:36

Often, they shadow officers on foot patrol and sometimes

0:41:360:41:38

get the chance to see the neighbourhood team in action.

0:41:380:41:42

Basically, we have been alerted by security that there is two

0:41:420:41:46

smoking cannabis at the moment.

0:41:460:41:47

We're going to go down with the officers.

0:41:470:41:49

With a lot of visitors in town,

0:41:490:41:52

it is difficult to keep an eye on everyone and, on this occasion,

0:41:520:41:56

it was a case of mistaken identity.

0:41:560:41:59

Thank you very much. Sorry to have wasted your time,

0:41:590:42:03

but thank you very much for letting us search.

0:42:030:42:05

Enjoy the rest of your day. Sorry!

0:42:050:42:09

'We experience being out in the public. We learn police skills.'

0:42:090:42:13

So, it is working alongside them and learning what they do.

0:42:130:42:17

-Morning!

-Morning!

0:42:170:42:18

Today was a huge success.

0:42:180:42:20

The neighbourhood team

0:42:200:42:21

engaged with spectators, the cadets learned police procedure

0:42:210:42:26

and, as expected, the motocross festival kept everyone entertained.

0:42:260:42:31

The neighbourhood police employ all sorts of methods and tactics

0:42:440:42:47

to tackle crime, but it is their ability to work in partnership

0:42:470:42:51

with other organisations and hand-in-hand with the public

0:42:510:42:54

that helps them achieve the best results.

0:42:540:42:58

Until next time... Evening, all.
