In April two acts of criminal damage were reported at South Devon Railway to train carriages. A local 17 year old youth was identified and given a youth caution for the offence.
There have been 2 reports of suspicious vehicles in the area which has raised concerns within the community. 1 a Red VW Golf contained a male who was homeless and sleeping in his car. He was spoken to by Police and leaft the area and has not been seen since. The other was a White Transit van. This registered keeper was from out of the area visiting friends but checks were made with Gloucester Police. There were no offences and this vehicle has left the area.
Several reports have been received in relation to nuisance motorbikes. A second rider has been issued a Section 59 Warning for riding elsewhere other than road. If the manner of riding continues we will look to seize the vehicle. Another report of an unroadworthy moped being ridden around the town was received and this was discovered abandoned in a local car park. It has been removed by the council as deemed a danger to the public.
From West Buckfastleigh we have had no crimes in the area. 1 incident has been reported which was in relation of a dispute with a neighbour.
