Public and Police Work Together to Tackle Incident

Whilst PCSO Turner, from our Shipston SNT was on duty yesterday, a call came through regarding some flytipping of oil in a neighbouring village, just off Warwickshire in the Todenham area. Local information from members of the local community was acted upon and she contacted our police control in Warwickshire to ensure the relevant markers had been put on the vehicle to get it stopped.
The following day the same vehicle was stopped by Sussex Police and checks carried out on the occupants & waste carrier licence.  A good example of how cross-border forces work with our force and local people. Sussex Police sent Shipston Warwickshire Police an update on their actions. There has been a number of vehicles stealing oil in the last few months from hotels and pubs.  Please continue to report suspicious vehicles as there are a number of vehicles doing this.
