0:03:02 > 0:03:04Not supposed to get a vehicle over them

0:03:04 > 0:03:07and you do see, when... when people drive over them,

0:03:07 > 0:03:10quite often you get sparks from underneath the car and that stuff

0:03:10 > 0:03:13so it's not good for your car to go over them,

0:03:13 > 0:03:15erm, but obviously they think we're not going to...

0:03:15 > 0:03:17going to take our cars over them,

0:03:35 > 0:03:37going over the tank traps or going off road,

0:03:37 > 0:03:39it affirms in my mind then,

0:03:39 > 0:03:41yeah, they're trying to get away from here, because...

0:07:11 > 0:07:13From the minute I saw you on Canterbury Avenue,

0:07:13 > 0:07:16do you think any of your standard of driving there was careless?

0:07:25 > 0:07:28First and foremostly, you're reported for the offences of,

0:07:28 > 0:07:31OK, disqualified driving and using a vehicle without insurance,

0:07:31 > 0:07:34which is no...no big surprise to you, and you're also dis...

0:07:34 > 0:07:36you're also reported for the offence of driving

0:07:41 > 0:07:43Do you have any reply?

0:07:43 > 0:07:46You don't have to. It's just, we have to ask you if you've got a reply.

0:07:49 > 0:07:51'It was his decision to drive.'

0:07:51 > 0:07:54It was his decision to buy that car, to pay the money for that car,

0:07:54 > 0:07:57knowing that he shouldn't be driving it, and to drive it on the road,

0:07:57 > 0:08:01and then not only did he do that, he tried to get away as well, which...

0:08:01 > 0:08:02which makes it worse,

0:08:02 > 0:08:05so, no, I've no sympathy for him, he deserved it.

0:08:05 > 0:08:07With the questioning over,

0:08:07 > 0:08:10the officer ordered the car to be seized.

0:08:48 > 0:08:52a sprawling conurbation with the third largest police force in the UK.

0:08:54 > 0:09:00Officers make around 6,000 drug arrests every year,

0:09:00 > 0:09:01but the war is never-ending.

0:09:03 > 0:09:06The operation, Op Selenite, is put in place

0:09:06 > 0:09:07to combat drug supply issues

0:09:07 > 0:09:09around the Newton Heath and Failsworth area.

0:09:09 > 0:09:12The aim of the operation is to conduct warrants at seven addresses

0:09:12 > 0:09:16over the two-day period, six of which are going to take place today.

0:09:16 > 0:09:19The latest operation involves police units

0:09:19 > 0:09:21from across the whole of the county.

0:09:21 > 0:09:24Obviously if we do get a seizure of drugs, consider the...evidence

0:09:24 > 0:09:26that we'll need for supply -

0:09:26 > 0:09:29cash, debtors' list, scales, snap-bags, mobile phones,

0:09:29 > 0:09:31bank statements, et cetera.

0:10:02 > 0:10:04It's no point, er, advertising it.

0:10:04 > 0:10:06So, the officer in case

0:10:06 > 0:10:09has to keep it to her chest or his chest.

0:10:09 > 0:10:11In this case, it was her chest.

0:10:11 > 0:10:14You work on the intelligence we are getting from members of public,

0:10:14 > 0:10:16from the people around your area.

0:10:16 > 0:10:19Obviously we were getting something from the members of public

0:10:19 > 0:10:21for us to be able to get those warrants,

0:10:21 > 0:10:22go to a court, go to a magistrate

0:10:22 > 0:10:25and say that, yeah, we have enough intelligence

0:10:25 > 0:10:28to say that there is something going on, on those streets,

0:10:28 > 0:10:30in that house.

0:10:36 > 0:10:41all in the Failsworth and Newton Heath districts of Manchester.

0:10:41 > 0:10:44We only get to know what we are supposed to know.

0:10:46 > 0:10:48until just a few minutes ago,

0:10:48 > 0:10:52so the other addresses, I have no clue where we are

0:10:52 > 0:10:55about the addresses, so, yeah, it's just all confidential,

0:12:30 > 0:12:34'Well, we had intelligence to say that, yes, he was dealing,'

0:14:51 > 0:14:52as much, if anything else,

0:15:15 > 0:15:18- Nothing at all? - No.- Who's the driver?

0:15:18 > 0:15:20- He's in the car. - What's he called?- Huh?

0:15:20 > 0:15:22- You what, sorry?- I don't know. - You don't know who the driver is?

0:15:22 > 0:15:26- You get into a car and you don't know who the driver is? - I don't know his name.- OK.

0:15:26 > 0:15:28What I'll say to you, all right,

0:15:28 > 0:15:32is...if you are lying to me about your identity...

0:15:32 > 0:15:33- Hmm.- ..all right,

0:15:33 > 0:15:36and I find out you're lying to me about your identity...

0:15:36 > 0:15:38- Right.- ..I'll lock you up and you'll go to custody

0:15:38 > 0:15:41and you'll not only get done for your driving offences, you'll get done

0:15:41 > 0:15:45- for attempting to pervert the course of justice... - I'm lying to you, then.- There we go.

0:15:45 > 0:15:48After these words of advice the driver, Sahil Khan,

0:15:48 > 0:15:51finally decides to tell the truth.

0:15:51 > 0:15:53You must have thought I were born yesterday, you.

0:15:53 > 0:15:55I've been doing this job a little while, you know.

0:15:55 > 0:15:58I know how it works around here. I work round here all the time,

0:15:58 > 0:16:00so giving it all this "it's my mate's" right,

0:16:00 > 0:16:04you just say "I bought it to run around in", which is the truth.

0:16:05 > 0:16:06A lot easier.

0:16:06 > 0:16:09You're still going to get done for no licence, no insurance,

0:16:09 > 0:16:11but it means you ain't going to get locked up for TWOC.

0:16:11 > 0:16:14Thank you. Surname is Khan, first name is Sahil.

0:16:14 > 0:16:17- RADIO:- He's shown as disqualified until, erm,

0:16:17 > 0:16:20the second of the first, 2015.

0:16:20 > 0:16:24It's now clear why the man has been withholding his details.

0:16:24 > 0:16:26At the minute, the offences you're committing

0:16:26 > 0:16:28is driving whilst disqualified,

0:16:28 > 0:16:31no insurance and no licence, all right?

0:16:31 > 0:16:34Yeah? Makes sense. Did you know you were disqualified?

0:16:34 > 0:16:36Right, OK.

0:16:36 > 0:16:39- You knew you didn't have a licence, though, yeah?- I was...

0:16:39 > 0:16:41And you knew you didn't have insurance?

0:16:41 > 0:16:43The driver might be in serious trouble

0:16:43 > 0:16:47but his friends in the car still think it's all a bit of a joke.

0:16:47 > 0:16:49I think laughing and joking isn't really conveying

0:16:49 > 0:16:52the seriousness of what's happened, is it, really? Yeah?

0:16:52 > 0:16:56If you think it's funny, then...carry on.

0:16:56 > 0:16:58But I don't think it is, do you?

0:16:58 > 0:17:01Reprimanded, and with their details taken,

0:17:01 > 0:17:03the passengers are free to go on their way.

0:17:05 > 0:17:08I'm trying to understand why young lads round here

0:17:08 > 0:17:10just buy cars for t'sake of it and drive round,

0:17:10 > 0:17:11cos everyone does it, don't they?

0:17:11 > 0:17:13So, you bought it to sell?

0:17:13 > 0:17:15So what did you pay for that, then?

0:17:17 > 0:17:19£600? And what would you sell it for?

0:17:21 > 0:17:22Give over.

0:17:22 > 0:17:24Who's going to pay nine for that?

0:17:24 > 0:17:25What's t'mileage on it?

0:17:27 > 0:17:29What's a bit high?

0:17:29 > 0:17:30Pfff...

0:17:30 > 0:17:32You'll be lucky if you get 400 for it, mate.

0:17:32 > 0:17:35You'll be lucky if you get owt for it now, cos we're taking it off you.

0:17:35 > 0:17:37Right, I just need to do a seizure notice and then you're...

0:17:37 > 0:17:39you're out of here.

0:17:39 > 0:17:42Well, you'll have a job. You ain't got a licence.

0:17:42 > 0:17:43With his car seized,

0:17:43 > 0:17:47Sahil Khan will have to make his own way home.

0:17:47 > 0:17:49I hope for your sake you don't see me again.

0:17:49 > 0:17:51See you later.

0:17:51 > 0:17:54'It's all right him having a bad attitude, but, er,'

0:17:54 > 0:17:57yeah, he got his comeuppance when t'judge sentenced him

0:17:57 > 0:17:59to 14 weeks in prison for...

0:17:59 > 0:18:01for clearly ignoring what he'd been told in the first place,

0:18:01 > 0:18:05so I don't imagine he'll be laughing quite so hard now.

0:18:14 > 0:18:16Earlier, officers in Manchester

0:18:16 > 0:18:21carried out simultaneous raids on homes in the Failsworth District.

0:18:21 > 0:18:22Police!

0:18:22 > 0:18:24- Police!- Police!

0:18:24 > 0:18:25Operation Selenite

0:18:25 > 0:18:28is designed to crack down on drug dealing.

0:18:28 > 0:18:30Someone at the back...

0:18:30 > 0:18:31- Morning, mate.- Morning, mate.

0:18:31 > 0:18:33We've got a warrant to search the address.

0:18:33 > 0:18:37- Anyone else at the address, pal? - Mr Bell, is it, yeah?- Just you?

0:18:37 > 0:18:39Is there any, er, drugs on the property?

0:18:39 > 0:18:41Er, just a bit of...

0:18:41 > 0:18:44- whizz.- A bit of whizz? - What I have, yeah.

0:18:44 > 0:18:48- What YOU have?- Yeah.- Right, OK. Where's that located?

0:18:48 > 0:18:50In here where the safe is...

0:18:50 > 0:18:52- Where the safe is?- Yeah. - All right, OK.

0:18:53 > 0:18:55The occupant, Alan Bell,

0:18:55 > 0:18:58claims the amphetamines are for personal use,

0:18:58 > 0:19:01but as the police have received intelligence

0:19:01 > 0:19:02that he could be dealing,

0:19:02 > 0:19:06they begin a detailed search of the property.

0:19:06 > 0:19:09You never know where they might be hiding.

0:19:09 > 0:19:13It's relating to a drug or a small SIM card,

0:19:13 > 0:19:14things like that,

0:19:14 > 0:19:17it can be anywhere, anywhere in little holes and stuff,

0:19:17 > 0:19:19so you have to be very thorough.

0:19:19 > 0:19:22We're trained to be, you have to be a good searcher

0:19:22 > 0:19:25to be able to go to that little place and find it.

0:19:28 > 0:19:30Fantastic. Thank you for doing that, yeah.

0:19:30 > 0:19:32Cheers. Thanks.

0:19:32 > 0:19:35They have found some scales

0:19:35 > 0:19:40with white residue on it, some spoons,

0:19:40 > 0:19:41silver spoons...

0:19:41 > 0:19:44er, with, er, white,

0:19:44 > 0:19:46again, white powder on it.

0:19:46 > 0:19:50They found a plastic... a clear plastic bag with some,

0:19:50 > 0:19:52again, white powder in it.

0:19:52 > 0:19:53I'm arresting you

0:19:53 > 0:19:56on suspicion of possession with intent to supply controlled drugs.

0:19:56 > 0:19:59You do not have to say anything, but it may harm your defence

0:19:59 > 0:20:00if you do not mention when questioned

0:20:00 > 0:20:02something which you later rely on in court.

0:20:02 > 0:20:04Anything you do say may be given in evidence.

0:20:04 > 0:20:06Do you understand that? Yeah?

0:20:06 > 0:20:09We've gained entry and we've got one male detained.

0:20:12 > 0:20:13The dog looks worried.

0:20:13 > 0:20:15- Eh?- The dog looks worried.

0:20:15 > 0:20:18Yeah, he don't like people touching me.

0:20:18 > 0:20:20Shall I leave him in the living room?

0:20:20 > 0:20:23- Sorry?- Shall we leave him in the living room?- Yes, we will, yeah.

0:20:23 > 0:20:27- He's got enough food and everything, hasn't he?- Yeah.- OK.

0:20:28 > 0:20:31- OK, is everything all right? - Yeah, all right.- OK.

0:20:32 > 0:20:34Oh, I was worried. Hm!

0:20:35 > 0:20:38I was more concerned about the dog than him, the man,

0:20:38 > 0:20:40because I knew that this fellow was going to be arrested,

0:20:40 > 0:20:44so I was more concerned who's going to look after that dog.

0:20:44 > 0:20:47How's... Who's going to feed, er...feed that dog

0:20:47 > 0:20:49until that fellow is in the custody?

0:20:49 > 0:20:51I'll see you later.

0:20:51 > 0:20:53Of course you will.

0:20:57 > 0:21:01The officers took Bell to the station for further questioning.

0:21:01 > 0:21:04His pet had to stay behind.

0:21:10 > 0:21:12DOG WHIMPERS

0:21:16 > 0:21:18Alan Bell was later charged

0:21:18 > 0:21:22with possession with intent to supply Class B drugs.

0:21:22 > 0:21:26He was given a community order and an £80 fine.

0:21:37 > 0:21:39There are more than 100

0:21:39 > 0:21:42outstanding arrest warrants in Greater Manchester.

0:21:44 > 0:21:47Those wanted range from novice law-breakers

0:21:47 > 0:21:49to serial offenders.

0:21:52 > 0:21:54The divisional tasking team in Oldham

0:21:54 > 0:21:57is responsible for tracking many of them down.

0:21:59 > 0:22:02- Somebody get the...- Ladders. - ..ladders and the ooley.

0:22:06 > 0:22:10Tonight, officers Kevin Rawcliffe and Phil Cross

0:22:10 > 0:22:13are working through their list.

0:22:13 > 0:22:15This one here, a lad called Adam Butterworth,

0:22:15 > 0:22:18he's asked to make contact with his ex-partner,

0:22:18 > 0:22:20asking to see the daughter.

0:22:20 > 0:22:23When the ex-partner said her daughter was in bed

0:22:23 > 0:22:25and it wasn't possible, he still attended.

0:22:25 > 0:22:28He's been kicking the door and the door frame that hard

0:22:28 > 0:22:31that it's caused a radiator to come away from the wall.

0:22:31 > 0:22:35Erm, from then, he's threatened to...kill her.

0:22:35 > 0:22:38We're taking it serious because it is a domestic-violence job.

0:22:38 > 0:22:40A lot of work's been done to try and trace him up to now,

0:22:40 > 0:22:43we've had no joy, but there's another address we've managed to

0:22:43 > 0:22:46get hold of last week, so fingers crossed he'll be there and, er,

0:22:46 > 0:22:48he can be arrested for this crime.

0:22:51 > 0:22:53The team have received a tip-off

0:22:53 > 0:22:56that Butterworth has been staying at a friend's house.

0:23:03 > 0:23:05Hello, mate. All right?

0:23:05 > 0:23:07We're after...

0:23:07 > 0:23:08Adam Butterworth?

0:23:10 > 0:23:13He went, er...last night.

0:23:13 > 0:23:15- He went last night?- Yeah.

0:23:15 > 0:23:18- Well, we're going to have to search, mate, all right? - Sure, mate. Yeah.

0:23:18 > 0:23:20How long's he been staying here for, mate?

0:23:20 > 0:23:22Just on and off.

0:23:22 > 0:23:25It's important to visit friends, family, et cetera,

0:23:25 > 0:23:28and visit them as many times as you can.

0:23:28 > 0:23:30'He clearly had been staying with him

0:23:30 > 0:23:33'and I think when we've turned up at the address...'

0:23:33 > 0:23:36I think he obviously wasn't there, because we searched it, but...

0:23:36 > 0:23:39'he'll have been there and disappeared.'

0:23:39 > 0:23:41He came to the door.

0:23:41 > 0:23:44I said, "Adam Butterworth, is he here?"

0:23:44 > 0:23:46He just said, "Come in."

0:23:46 > 0:23:49And he just pointed...in here.

0:23:50 > 0:23:53So we've come in here and there's just a coat and a cushion there

0:23:53 > 0:23:56but he's of the opinion that he was here, but...

0:23:56 > 0:23:58clearly we can't...he's not here at the moment.

0:23:58 > 0:24:02I mean, normally we...we have had people in cupboards before,

0:24:02 > 0:24:05you know, the ground-floor sort of cupboards but...

0:24:08 > 0:24:10Come on out.

0:24:12 > 0:24:14GENTLE LAUGHTER

0:24:14 > 0:24:15Can of Fosters.

0:24:15 > 0:24:18Who else does he know, or where would he have gone to?

0:24:20 > 0:24:23What about your brothers?

0:24:23 > 0:24:25Have you got a brother in Royton?

0:24:26 > 0:24:28- He wouldn't?- No...

0:24:31 > 0:24:33It's domestic-related.

0:24:33 > 0:24:35'This particular friend,'

0:24:35 > 0:24:37he was told that we would be back and...

0:24:37 > 0:24:39we're waking the family up,

0:24:39 > 0:24:42we're waking his kids up or his baby up, et cetera,

0:24:42 > 0:24:43but we would be back,

0:24:43 > 0:24:46because he was wanted for such a serious offence.

0:24:48 > 0:24:50The search for Butterworth has gone cold

0:24:50 > 0:24:53and he remains on the police wanted list...

0:24:53 > 0:24:55for now.

0:25:05 > 0:25:09Hunting wanted criminals is a relentless 24/7 job.

0:25:11 > 0:25:15In the north of Manchester, the task falls to the fugitive team.

0:25:15 > 0:25:18It's because of his long face, I think it's him.

0:25:18 > 0:25:21Are there no more pictures on his...thingy?

0:25:21 > 0:25:24The squad was formed seven months ago

0:25:24 > 0:25:27and Acting Sergeant Anu Singh is a key member.

0:25:27 > 0:25:30Let's go, let's go, let's go.

0:25:30 > 0:25:33The sole purpose is to arrest people, get as many bodies

0:25:33 > 0:25:37at the counter as possible, deal with crimes,

0:25:37 > 0:25:42get them out so that we are ready to deal with the next batch.

0:25:42 > 0:25:46The team rely on intelligence, hard work

0:25:46 > 0:25:49and occasionally a slice of luck.

0:25:52 > 0:25:53Yes, I do.

0:25:56 > 0:26:00Jamie Parker has been on the team's hit list for a while.

0:26:00 > 0:26:03He's wanted on suspicion of an offence

0:26:03 > 0:26:06of racially aggravated criminal damage.

0:26:06 > 0:26:10He had called the Asian shop owner, erm,

0:26:10 > 0:26:14racial names, and called him... abused him.

0:26:16 > 0:26:18I think he came down here, he came across here somewhere.

0:26:18 > 0:26:22Is that him there? Going in that place there.

0:26:22 > 0:26:25- He's just gone in here?- Yeah.

0:26:25 > 0:26:28We think, we're not sure yet.

0:26:30 > 0:26:33The team think Parker may have entered a business premises.

0:26:33 > 0:26:37They don't have a warrant but they do have the right to enter the building

0:26:37 > 0:26:40if they believe the fugitive is inside.

0:26:40 > 0:26:43- I need to see Jimmy Parker.- Why? What's he done?

0:26:43 > 0:26:44He's wanted.

0:26:46 > 0:26:48- Is there a risk?- Yeah, yeah.

0:26:48 > 0:26:50Where's he going to be, that way or that way?

0:26:50 > 0:26:52Can I just see some ID, please?

0:26:52 > 0:26:54I'm a uniformed police officer.

0:26:54 > 0:26:57You can have my warrant card but I can go inside your premises

0:26:57 > 0:27:01if I know a person wanted by Greater Manchester Police is in there,

0:27:01 > 0:27:05and if I have reasonable suspicion, being a PC,

0:27:05 > 0:27:07I had seen somebody, and then the lady then said that

0:27:07 > 0:27:09that was Jamie Parker,

0:27:09 > 0:27:12that was enough grounds for me to go inside the premises.

0:27:12 > 0:27:14Showing them my warrant card... I was in uniform,

0:27:14 > 0:27:18I can show you my warrant card and I can go in the premises and get him.

0:27:21 > 0:27:24After gaining access to the site,

0:27:24 > 0:27:28Officer Singh spots her suspect in the distance.

0:27:51 > 0:27:55Sorry, Joy, I've just detained the male wanted.

0:28:02 > 0:28:04..and then I'll just explain.

0:28:04 > 0:28:08- Yeah, go and finish it. - Just sit here?- Yeah, yeah, OK.

0:28:08 > 0:28:10You do your job, you don't think.

0:28:10 > 0:28:12You don't think what you're getting into.

0:28:12 > 0:28:15That was not really anything serious I was doing,

0:28:15 > 0:28:17but, yeah, you don't. None of the officers think

0:28:17 > 0:28:20when they're... There's this thing in their mind

0:28:20 > 0:28:22that "I have to go and get him", or "I have to do this job".

0:28:22 > 0:28:27They don't think of the danger and at times it is worrying, really.

0:28:27 > 0:28:30'This wasn't anything dangerous, but, yeah, it is worrying

0:28:30 > 0:28:32'that you're doing it on your own.'

0:28:32 > 0:28:36You crack on with it and you try and get the result.

0:28:36 > 0:28:40Right, you're under arrest for racially aggravated criminal damage.

0:28:40 > 0:28:42You do not have to say anything but it may harm your defence

0:28:42 > 0:28:46if you do not mention when questioned something which you may later rely on in court.

0:28:46 > 0:28:48Anything that you do say may be given in evidence.

0:28:48 > 0:28:51The time now is 13.09 and the reason why we are arresting you

0:28:51 > 0:28:53is just to gather evidence, and by interviewing you

0:28:53 > 0:28:57and obviously this is a racially aggravated for... a vulnerable victim.

0:28:57 > 0:28:58Thank you.

0:28:59 > 0:29:03Usually we don't like to go in a working place

0:29:03 > 0:29:05but because we knew he was wanted for a while,

0:29:05 > 0:29:08and his mum has known for a while that he was wanted

0:29:08 > 0:29:10and she wasn't helping us,

0:29:10 > 0:29:13so we had no choice but to go and arrest him.

0:29:13 > 0:29:16He was literally cycling just in front of us then,

0:29:16 > 0:29:20and Anu recognised him, and we just followed him into here

0:29:20 > 0:29:23and, bang, he was there, you know, so it's really, really good.

0:29:23 > 0:29:24Really good result.

0:29:26 > 0:29:30Jamie Parker received a year-long community-order sentence

0:29:30 > 0:29:34for the racially aggravated public order offence.

0:29:34 > 0:29:38No further action was taken with the criminal-damage allegation.

0:29:38 > 0:29:42Another result for the fugitive squad and Anu.

0:29:42 > 0:29:44You do your job as a cop.

0:29:44 > 0:29:47If you start putting yourself in a compartment and saying that, yeah,

0:29:47 > 0:29:51you're a woman, you're an Asian, then I think that won't work.

0:29:51 > 0:29:55I'm wearing a uniform here. I have to be a cop.

0:29:55 > 0:29:57If I start generalising,

0:29:57 > 0:30:00if I start putting myself in a category,

0:30:00 > 0:30:02I think I'll never survive.

0:30:15 > 0:30:19In Oldham, the divisional tasking team are back on nights.

0:30:21 > 0:30:24For the second evening in succession,

0:30:24 > 0:30:27Adam Butterworth is at the top of their wanted list.

0:30:29 > 0:30:32After being told by his friend that we visited the address

0:30:32 > 0:30:34in the early hours, he told the sergeant

0:30:34 > 0:30:37he was going to hand himself in within the hour.

0:30:37 > 0:30:40That's not the case, so unfortunately we're going to have

0:30:40 > 0:30:42to go and knock on a few doors now and try and find him.

0:30:42 > 0:30:45All it does is cause hassle for other people, really.

0:30:45 > 0:30:48They're at home, peaceful, and we're coming round

0:30:48 > 0:30:51at daft o'clock at night trying to find this guy.

0:30:51 > 0:30:53But he's had his chance.

0:30:55 > 0:30:58We'll find him, hopefully very soon.

0:31:00 > 0:31:03It's at the end of this terrace here, ain't it?

0:31:03 > 0:31:05You can get straight round the back.

0:31:05 > 0:31:08Wanted on suspicion of making a threat to kill,

0:31:08 > 0:31:12Butterworth promised to hand himself in after last night's visit.

0:31:12 > 0:31:14KNOCKING

0:31:14 > 0:31:16It's the police again.

0:31:16 > 0:31:19His failure to do so prompts a return journey to the house

0:31:19 > 0:31:21where he's assumed to be staying.

0:31:21 > 0:31:23- Hello.- Are you all right, are you OK?

0:31:23 > 0:31:26- Yeah.- He's not turned up, Adam, has he? Is he here?

0:31:26 > 0:31:29- No, he did set off. - Can we come in a sec?- Yeah.

0:31:29 > 0:31:31Have you got his number?

0:31:31 > 0:31:33We need to ring him because he said he was coming

0:31:33 > 0:31:36- and would be there within the hour. He's not come.- Right.

0:31:36 > 0:31:38It's not fair on you either, is it?

0:31:38 > 0:31:41You're being dead on the level and he's really mugging you off

0:31:41 > 0:31:43and mugging us off.

0:31:43 > 0:31:46The clientele that we deal with most of the time,

0:31:46 > 0:31:49they aren't co-operative and they won't assist you,

0:31:49 > 0:31:55but...so therefore you've got to be subtle, but forceful.

0:31:55 > 0:31:58So he's not been very fair on you, has he?

0:31:58 > 0:32:01No, but he...he got a lift and that was his plan.

0:32:01 > 0:32:05- Who did he get a lift off?- Erm, some girl in Oldham, I'm not sure.

0:32:05 > 0:32:08If we ever find him here, you'll both be arrested

0:32:08 > 0:32:10for harbouring an escaped prisoner as such.

0:32:10 > 0:32:12See you later on tonight, then.

0:32:12 > 0:32:15Don't be thinking you're getting a good night's sleep here, mate,

0:32:15 > 0:32:18- because there's a victim at the end of all this.- Right.

0:32:18 > 0:32:19And that's what we're looking for.

0:32:19 > 0:32:21'You've got to put pressure on these people.'

0:32:21 > 0:32:23You've got a young child there.

0:32:23 > 0:32:26We don't want to be waking that child up at all hours of the night.

0:32:26 > 0:32:28It's not fair on them, it's not fair on the neighbours, you know.

0:32:28 > 0:32:31While we're kicking the door, the neighbours are waking up,

0:32:31 > 0:32:32they're looking out their window.

0:32:32 > 0:32:34They're fed up with it, we're fed up with it,

0:32:34 > 0:32:37and the people at the address are fed up with it.

0:32:37 > 0:32:39Unfortunately, if that's our only port of call

0:32:39 > 0:32:41and it's the only way we can contact these people,

0:32:41 > 0:32:43that's what we have to do to get the result.

0:32:43 > 0:32:45At the end of the day, if we don't get a reply on the door,

0:32:45 > 0:32:48your door's going in, OK? We think he's here,

0:32:48 > 0:32:50Section 17 of the Police and Criminal Evidence Act,

0:32:50 > 0:32:53if we reasonably suspect he's here, we'll be coming in.

0:32:53 > 0:32:57As the officers leave the property, they receive new information

0:32:57 > 0:32:59about Butterworth over the police radio.

0:32:59 > 0:33:02I'm just locking the door, he's just walked in.

0:33:02 > 0:33:04- Right, he's there.- Right.

0:33:04 > 0:33:07It's no coincidence that a short while after

0:33:07 > 0:33:11we'd been to the address he turned up at the police station.

0:33:11 > 0:33:14He knew that his mate had probably been ringing him, giving him grief

0:33:14 > 0:33:17about us going every night, the neighbours had probably been going

0:33:17 > 0:33:19on to him, and he's probably said, "Listen, hand yourself in

0:33:19 > 0:33:21"cos you're not staying here any more,"

0:33:21 > 0:33:24or something along those lines, and fortunately he did.

0:33:24 > 0:33:27No further action was taken over the threats to kill.

0:33:27 > 0:33:31However, the police went on to charge Adam Butterworth

0:33:31 > 0:33:32with criminal damage.

0:33:32 > 0:33:34He remains at large

0:33:34 > 0:33:36and is still on the wanted list.

0:33:43 > 0:33:47In West Yorkshire, roads policing officer James Alderson

0:33:47 > 0:33:50is responding to an emergency call.

0:33:54 > 0:33:57He's fighting through rush-hour traffic

0:33:57 > 0:34:01to contain a van thought to be carrying Class A drugs.

0:34:03 > 0:34:05Guys, can I suggest we pull into the old...

0:34:05 > 0:34:08police station on t'right-hand side, let it come towards us

0:34:08 > 0:34:10otherwise we're going to miss it.

0:34:12 > 0:34:13Just trying to intercept the car,

0:34:13 > 0:34:18the Fiat Doblo that's got a load of heroin on board, mate.

0:34:18 > 0:34:20I see it coming now.

0:34:20 > 0:34:22As the white van passes in front of him,

0:34:22 > 0:34:25Officer Alderson needs to make his move.

0:34:25 > 0:34:27Stay there!

0:34:34 > 0:34:37Hands where we can see them, pal.

0:34:37 > 0:34:40With the assistance of colleagues,

0:34:40 > 0:34:42he manages to box the van in.

0:34:42 > 0:34:45Listen, mate, because of information that we've received,

0:34:45 > 0:34:48you're going to be searched under Section 23 of Misuse of Drugs Act.

0:34:48 > 0:34:51- Do you understand?- Yeah.- All right. I'll ask you now before we start searching.

0:34:51 > 0:34:53Anything in this vehicle there shouldn't be?

0:34:54 > 0:34:58Two tins under that coat there of what?

0:34:58 > 0:35:00Right, OK, so some type of drugs, all right.

0:35:01 > 0:35:05Mate, intel's right, there's two massive tubs of coke in here.

0:35:05 > 0:35:07Officers had earlier received a tip-off

0:35:07 > 0:35:09that the driver, Scott Fothergill,

0:35:09 > 0:35:13was due to transport a significant amount of Class A drugs.

0:35:13 > 0:35:16It looks like that intelligence was correct.

0:35:16 > 0:35:20You're being arrested on suspicion of possession of controlled drugs, do you understand that?

0:35:20 > 0:35:23So you don't have to say anything but it may harm your defence

0:35:23 > 0:35:26if you do not mention when questioned something which you later rely on in court.

0:35:26 > 0:35:29- Anything you do say may be given in evidence. Do you understand?- Yeah.

0:35:29 > 0:35:33OK. Is there anything else at all in your pockets - knives, needles, anything else?

0:35:33 > 0:35:34No. Nowt bad.

0:35:34 > 0:35:36Right, we'll sit you in our vehicle,

0:35:36 > 0:35:38just step to one side for us.

0:35:38 > 0:35:39Take a seat in there for us, please.

0:35:41 > 0:35:44The only thing I'd say, despite the fact he's obviously running

0:35:44 > 0:35:47a lot of drugs, you've got to give him a little bit of respect

0:35:47 > 0:35:49for being so all right with us and for not causing us

0:35:49 > 0:35:53a lot of problems, for not trying to get away, for not trying

0:35:53 > 0:35:56to take a pursuit, and not causing other members of the public

0:35:56 > 0:36:00any danger, so you've got to give him a little bit of respect for that.

0:36:00 > 0:36:04Right, plan is, lock him up, take him to Trafalgar.

0:36:04 > 0:36:07We're heading off now so I'll speak to you as soon as we get to Trafalgar.

0:36:09 > 0:36:12- Cheers.- Right. See you down there.

0:36:12 > 0:36:14See you down there, all right.

0:36:19 > 0:36:22- Job well done, weren't it? - Nice one. Well done.

0:36:22 > 0:36:26As you can see, we're just convoying down to t'police station,

0:36:26 > 0:36:29where we'll probably get Scenes of Crime to come

0:36:29 > 0:36:32and photograph it in situ and then we'll get it recovered

0:36:32 > 0:36:36and get it seized, and the lad's under arrest for the possession

0:36:36 > 0:36:40of the drugs with the intent to supply them at this moment in time.

0:36:54 > 0:36:59This phone's on the move, it's currently on Abson Street,

0:36:59 > 0:37:01which is, I believe, off Burnley Lane.

0:37:01 > 0:37:05- Yeah.- In Oldham, PC Kev Rawcliffe is on the hunt again.

0:37:07 > 0:37:12This time his target isn't a criminal but a phone - a stolen phone.

0:37:12 > 0:37:14So we're using this to track my iPhone.

0:37:14 > 0:37:17Our intelligence unit is tracking it at the moment

0:37:17 > 0:37:19and it's on a place called Abson Street,

0:37:19 > 0:37:21which is just down and not far from where the burglary occurred.

0:37:21 > 0:37:27It might be in the hands of the lad, or the person who's done the break,

0:37:27 > 0:37:30burglary, or it could be somebody who's bought it.

0:37:32 > 0:37:33It's on here somewhere.

0:37:33 > 0:37:36Chip's up at the top here... Oh, I see.

0:37:36 > 0:37:40Many modern mobiles are fitted with tracking software

0:37:40 > 0:37:43that can signal their exact location to others.

0:37:45 > 0:37:48It's going to be roughly that house where we went the other week.

0:37:48 > 0:37:49Has it stopped moving?

0:37:49 > 0:37:54Well, it's certainly not them, which is that white-ended house there.

0:37:55 > 0:37:58This is the gable end that you can see there of that one,

0:37:58 > 0:38:01- so it could be... - The top two or three.

0:38:01 > 0:38:03The technology puts you in an area,

0:38:03 > 0:38:08and certainly with a lot of the addresses in the Oldham area,

0:38:08 > 0:38:11which go back to the old mill days, the terraced houses, side by side,

0:38:11 > 0:38:14or back to back - in this instance it's side by side -

0:38:14 > 0:38:16it puts you in an area,

0:38:16 > 0:38:20so therefore you do really need to start knocking.

0:38:20 > 0:38:24The officers think they've narrowed down the phone's location

0:38:24 > 0:38:27to an area around a few houses.

0:38:27 > 0:38:28Morning.

0:38:28 > 0:38:32Sorry to bother you. Are you OK? We're investigating a burglary.

0:38:32 > 0:38:34A phone's been stolen.

0:38:34 > 0:38:37We've tracked it to this area so it's within this area.

0:38:37 > 0:38:40Are we allowed to come in for a minute? Is that OK?

0:38:40 > 0:38:41I can explain everything to you.

0:38:41 > 0:38:43- Are you all right in there?- Yeah.

0:38:44 > 0:38:46KNOCKING

0:38:46 > 0:38:51While the doors are open, one of the team presses a button

0:38:51 > 0:38:53to activate an alarm on the stolen phone.

0:38:53 > 0:38:55Go ahead.

0:38:57 > 0:38:59We've found it.

0:38:59 > 0:39:02Their colleagues have heard a noise from a rubbish tip

0:39:02 > 0:39:03in the back alleyway.

0:39:03 > 0:39:06CHIMING

0:39:06 > 0:39:07You've pressed the action.

0:39:07 > 0:39:09Oh, I pressed the button.

0:39:12 > 0:39:15It's spot on, that, innit? That noise anyway.

0:39:15 > 0:39:16I pressed it when I was in that address.

0:39:16 > 0:39:19- That shows you how accurate that is as well.- I know.

0:39:19 > 0:39:21I just press the button and it makes that noise.

0:39:21 > 0:39:24I'm not ringing it. It's an activation thing.

0:39:24 > 0:39:26Under the rubble, PC Rawcliffe finds

0:39:26 > 0:39:29a pillowcase containing a laptop...

0:39:31 > 0:39:36..and the burglary victim arrives just in time to see his iPhone found.

0:39:36 > 0:39:40Six o'clock in the morning when we got up for work

0:39:40 > 0:39:43we went downstairs, didn't see anything wrong,

0:39:43 > 0:39:46and then I noticed the computer were missing,

0:39:46 > 0:39:48and then we knew we'd been done.

0:39:48 > 0:39:51And then I remembered I'd got an app on my iPhone

0:39:51 > 0:39:54so I phoned the police again and told them about it

0:39:54 > 0:39:57and that's what led us here.

0:39:57 > 0:39:59Technology works now and again.

0:39:59 > 0:40:02When you reunite anybody with any stolen property

0:40:02 > 0:40:06from burglaries, you know, cars or whatever, it's a great feeling.

0:40:06 > 0:40:10It's probably the best. It's what we do the job for, ain't it?

0:40:10 > 0:40:15Seeing how many police came out just for all this.

0:40:15 > 0:40:17It means a great response.

0:40:17 > 0:40:19Thanks!

0:40:26 > 0:40:28Stay there.

0:40:29 > 0:40:31Earlier in Bradford...

0:40:31 > 0:40:32Hands where we can see them, pal.

0:40:32 > 0:40:36..the traffic cops detained Scott Fothergill,

0:40:36 > 0:40:39wanted on suspicion of transporting drugs.

0:40:43 > 0:40:47Officers have now taken Fothergill's van to the station.

0:40:47 > 0:40:50Make sure someone stays with it for the time being.

0:40:50 > 0:40:54Things are being put in place now to get a forensic examination done.

0:40:55 > 0:40:57After stopping the van at the roadside,

0:40:57 > 0:41:00PC James Alderson found two large packages

0:41:00 > 0:41:03thought to contain Class A drugs.

0:41:05 > 0:41:08Now it's time for a more thorough search.

0:41:08 > 0:41:10It's one of the biggest ones I've ever seen.

0:41:10 > 0:41:13I mean, we don't know what's in them yet because obviously

0:41:13 > 0:41:16they're all taped up and packaged, but certainly if it is

0:41:16 > 0:41:20any sort of Class A drug, yeah, it's certainly a large amount.

0:41:20 > 0:41:23You'd think they'd have hidden it, wouldn't you, really?

0:41:23 > 0:41:24I mean, why's he left it on open view there?

0:41:24 > 0:41:28I reckon what he's done, he's gone into t'house with his jacket on and put it in his jacket

0:41:28 > 0:41:31and come back out with it in his jacket and put it in t'footwell.

0:41:31 > 0:41:33I mean, the van's full of workman gear, so he probably

0:41:33 > 0:41:36wouldn't put it in there, without making it dead obvious.

0:41:36 > 0:41:39Do you think he's tried to blag it, driving through rush-hour traffic?

0:41:39 > 0:41:42Look how clean it is, look how clean every little bit of it is.

0:41:42 > 0:41:45There's no way he's driven that from Darlington, that's been washed so it

0:41:45 > 0:41:47looks like a new van, a respectable van so it don't get pulled.

0:41:47 > 0:41:51Why would you, really? Seat belt on, why would you pull him?

0:41:51 > 0:41:53PHONE RINGS

0:41:53 > 0:41:56- Same lad keeps ringing his phone. He said his phone was- BLEEP,

0:41:56 > 0:41:59just keeps ringing him over and over and over again,

0:41:59 > 0:42:01'Somebody wants those drugs. They are somebody's drugs.'

0:42:01 > 0:42:04He's transporting them for somebody,

0:42:04 > 0:42:07and there's somebody waiting for them drugs to be delivered.

0:42:07 > 0:42:09Someone's obviously getting quite desperate

0:42:09 > 0:42:11and that was exactly what it were like in this case.

0:42:11 > 0:42:14Somebody was getting more and more desperate and making more and more

0:42:14 > 0:42:17phone calls to try and get hold of this lad, who was obviously now

0:42:17 > 0:42:19in custody and we had his phones in our possession.

0:42:19 > 0:42:22I think he's probably... "We'll give you a bit of brass.

0:42:22 > 0:42:26"Go and pick up a package and we'll give you a few hundred quid."

0:42:26 > 0:42:28- And he's got a newborn to look after.- Has he?

0:42:28 > 0:42:30Well, so he says.

0:42:30 > 0:42:34- There you go, then.- Good job. - Good little stop.

0:42:36 > 0:42:40Fothergill was later charged with possession with intent to supply

0:42:40 > 0:42:42Class A drugs.

0:42:42 > 0:42:47He was convicted and sentenced to six years in jail.

0:42:47 > 0:42:50Absolutely cracking result, to get that amount of drugs off the road,

0:42:50 > 0:42:53off the streets of... potentially England,

0:42:53 > 0:42:55because they were going... I know they weren't staying

0:42:55 > 0:42:58in West Yorkshire, the suggestion was they were taking them

0:42:58 > 0:43:02up North, so to get that amount of drugs off the street is really good.
