We have noted a rise in crime on the A1 where HGV’s have been damaged or had goods stolen from them. We are increasing patrols in the area to tackle this under Operation BARRIC to try and identify suspects and prevent further crime.
There has been a recent report of a Scam in LANGHAM, Rutland where the caller has identified themselves as a police officer and asked for help. The person has requested that they go to their bank and withdraw money and that they will send an officer to collect. This IS a SCAM. Please do not take any money out of your bank account and do not hand over. This can be reported either through to 101 or Action Fraud.
We are launching the Rutland Community Speed Watch ad we are working with RCC to train any volunteers for the respective villages. For Rutland North we have Stretton, Ryhall, Essendine and Greetham and I will be working to support them with this. If this is something that you would be interested in please contact your Parish Council to find out more.
If you have any village or local events happening in the next few months and would like your beat team to come along please contact me laurie.appleton@leicestershire.pnn.police.uk many thanks
