What a weekend for our Rural Crime Action Team (RCAT) 👮 🌾🐾 🚜

The team have been to every corner of the county - visiting gamekeepers, interviewing hare coursers, seizing cars used in crime, recovering stolen property and protecting wildlife 💪🏼

📍 Peterborough - they visited a local gamekeeper near Barnack who has been having issues with anti-social behaviour, and patrolled along the Cambs / Lincs border 🚔

📍 Fenland - they recovered a stolen dumper truck near Thorney Toll following a sighting from a Cambridgeshire Countryside Watch member 👀👏

📍 Huntingdonshire - they completed some farm visits, dealt with a violent man in Yaxley and provide support to an elderly victim of a burglary in St Neots 💙

📍 East Cambridgeshire - they seized a vehicle that had caused a significant amount of damage to crops and progressed the investigation near Prickwillow, and seized another two used in crime in Soham 🚗❌

Imagine your neighbour has been getting some work done on their house, and you get chatting to the workers.

During this conversation, they offer to help you out in repairing your guttering as they see it needs doing.

However, everything is not as it seems, and before you know it, the workers have informed you of even more work that needs doing!

When it came to payment, they became aggressive and started turning up to your house and leaving repeated voicemails, pressuring you to hand over £42,000.

It didn’t stop there, and despite payment being made, they continue to turn up at your house to ask for more money.

Unfortunately, this is the reality for one resident in Cambridgeshire, who has had to endure this treatment from suspected rogue traders.

These individuals target vulnerable people and overcharge them for poor or unnecessary works.

You can learn more about how to spot the signs of rogue traders here 👉 https://orlo.uk/3ffYj

If you suspect you, or someone you know, has been approached by a rogue trader, you can report it to us by calling 101 or online👉 https://orlo.uk/aNQUi

If a crime is in progress or someone is in immediate danger, always dial 999 📞

Devon Cox, 27, has been jailed after he attacked a man with a wrench outside a Peterborough homeless charity when he refused to give him £500.

DC Jake Boreham-Dennis who investigated, said: "This was a terrifying ordeal for the victim, who bravely refused Cox’s demands and managed to escape.

“I hope this sentence offers the victim some reassurance that justice has been served, and shows that violence of this nature will not be tolerated.” ⚖️

Issues that were raised included:

👮Vandalism and graffiti in the village
👮Drugs use and dealing

Our monthly police surgeries are a chance for the community and local councillors to come and talk to us about the issues that concern them. 👮

At our surgery earlier this week at Waterhouse Manor Care Home, in Hampton Gardens, it was great to have the chance to meet Councillor Roger Antunes and discuss anti-social behaviour (ASB) in the Hampton area.

We updated him on the work we have been doing and he told us about issues reported to him by residents.

Vehicle nuisance and ASB across the Ortons and the Hamptons has been set as a priority for the team over the next few months.

You can keep updated on our work to address these priorities on Facebook, our website, or by signing up to our eCops email system 👉 https://orlo.uk/D9OVw
