Appeal of information and a check in

Good morning Elmdon,

Its been a couple weeks since you last heard from me, this is due to annual leave and some other things going on. I believe PCSO Beard and other members of the team have been sending this message out. I am now back and after catching up on 200 plus emails and some other paperwork, will be out and about as normal. I hope you have all been well in the meantime. 

Starting this message off on a positive, here are the local good news updates from PCSO Smith a colleague from the LEOS team:

> The team arrested a prolific thief in the area who has now been recalled to prison and is also facing knife crime offences. He was caught in the act and detained until police arrived. Another one off the streets.

> The team arrested a suspect in relation to a high value fraud and theft to assist detectives in Coventry. The suspect received an early morning wakeup from the team he wasn’t expecting.

> Officers from the team took part in a recent exercise at the NEC over the weekend which involved the Ambulance Service, The Fire Brigade, The RAF and a number of other agencies to continue to develop and build on our joint working abilities and sharpen our skills should a major incident take place.

In addition to the above, I am happy to report that following a drug warrant being executed in the local area, a man has pled guilty to Cultivation of Cannabis. The team received intelligence from all of you people, that there was a house being used as a cannabis grow. Officers executed a warrant and found a man hiding in a tree in the neighbour’s garden. Needless to say, he attempted to evade prosecution during interview, however officers were able to gather enough evidence and the defendant pled guilty at court. His sentencing is this week.
