Update from your Safer Neighbourhood Officer
November/December 2009
During the month of November there have been several incidents to report. On the 5th the Derby Mountain Rescue Team were dispatched to Dovedale near to Lion Rock where a 16 year old female had fallen and sustained back injuries. The Air Ambulance was also in attendance. All was well and the injured party was taken to hospital.
It was reported on the 13th by a resident at Tissington that a white van was seen taking a ‘flash’ photograph of their farm and on the 14th another vehicle, this time a yellow van was reported visiting a farm at Fenny Bentley asking if they had any car batteries they could have. It is very important that all suspicious vehicles, enquiries are reported to the Police, we can then check them out and update the residents with the outcome.
On the 16th a vehicle (Corsa) was reported burnt out at Alsop Station, Alsop en le Dale. Police attended and found the car was completely destroyed. Enquiries are still ongoing and hopefully a result will be forthcoming and will be reported in next month’s newsletter.
Calls for service have been received regarding possible attempts at interfering with a badger set in the Bradbourne area between the 16th and 17th November. Please call the 0345 123 33 33 number if you suspect this may be occurring in your area.
The ongoing issue with the road closure on the B5056 at Fenny Bentley was discussed at a meeting held at Tissington Village Hall on the 17th. The meeting was well attended with about 90 people there. Many concerns were raised by the attendees and after a presentation by Councillor Simon Spencer several issues were clarified.
Please contact me at the Police Station if you have any queries and I will do my best to help.
We continue to live in area that is low on crime and anti-social behaviour. In relation to this it continues to be one of the best areas in the country to live.
