Buckfastleigh Police Neighbourhood report – May 2012
Over the last month 38 incidents have been reported to us from Buckfastleigh. 6 related to reports of anti social behaviour, though they all related to incidents where all parties involved were known to each other. 7 related to traffic incidents and 6 to crime issues.
19 crimes were reported to us from the town. 6 related to various incidents of criminal damage including a smashed window to a local retail unit. Information came to light as to a possible offender and a young local male has been interviewed and reported to attend court. A couple of vehicles parked in the Plymouth Road / Old Totnes Road area were reported as being damaged and these crimes are being investigated locally.
8 incidents have been reported to us from the Dean Prior area, all of which are traffic related and refer to issues with the A38. 1 crime has been reported which relates to a vehicle that was left parked and unattended that had its paint work damaged.
From West Buckfastleigh we received 2 reports that related to the same incident. No crimes were reported to us from this area.
From Holne we received 1 incident report which related to children playing in a tree. 1 crime was reported to us, from the River Dart County Park.
We are seeing a slight increase in the number of vehicles that are being broken into when parked up at beauty spots on the moor. We are now starting to share some of our crime information with the Dartmoor National Park Rangers and members of the Dartmoor Rescue Group who hopefully will act as our eyes and ears out and about in the rural community. We will be advising them to call us if they see anything suspicious and telling them what details we need to follow up such calls e.g vehicle registration numbers, direction of travel, exact location. All members of our rural community have a part to play so please if you need any further details please give us a ring on 101 and ask for PC Ali Hooper.
We can be contacted via email at Teignbridge@devonandcornwall.pnn.police.uk, where you will also find details of our next monthly police surgery and our current priorities.
