DS: Risk Warning; Stranger Danger

By
Hello all,

This refers to Yatton particularly where there have been a number of incidents, however, it is worth sharing more widely in case this individual is from, or appears elsewhere in the area. You may have a nugget of information that could help?

Investigation under way into sexual offences in Yatton

Added on 09 January 2018 at 11:56
An investigation is under way into four incidents of sexual assault and exposure in Yatton which are being treated as linked.
All the incidents have happened over the past two days and involve a man inappropriately touching females or exposing himself to members of the public.
We’re issuing a description of the offender and are appealing for information from the public.
The man we want to identify is white, in his late teens/early twenties, of slim or medium build and wearing jogging bottoms or dark jeans, a grey hooded top and possibly a black scarf or balaclava.
The investigation involves the following incidents:

*At about 9.20pm on Sunday (January 7), a man exposed himself to a woman in High Street.

*A 33-year-old woman was sexually assaulted after a man grabbed her in Stowey Road at about 6.15pm yesterday (January 8).

*A man inappropriately grabbed a 14-year-old girl in Henley Park at just after 7pm yesterday.

*At just after 7.30pm yesterday, a man exposed himself to a group of teenage girls in a park off Rectory Way.
DS Adam Knee, who is leading the investigation, said: “These incidents are clearly very concerning and we’re doing everything we can to identify the offender as soon as possible.
“We’re treating all four offences as linked due to their close proximity to each other and the similar descriptions given of the offender.
“Community reassurance patrols are being carried out in the local area and we have officers carrying out CCTV and house-to-house enquiries.
“We’ll be fully supporting all the victims and keeping them updated as this investigation progresses.
“If you have any information on who may be responsible or if you recognise the description we’ve issued, please call us.”
If you can help, please call 101 and give the call handler the reference number 5218005648

DS Risk Warning: Health - Cornavirus/Covid 19

By
Priority Wed, 26 Feb, 20 Hello all, Looking at how things are progressing and supporting you with your many enquiries can we suggest, if you haven't done so already, a communication to your community and staff? The content would be to reassure that you are following the national and local advice. You could then copy and paste the advice from yesterday that includes the list of Category 1 and Category 2 locations and the list of Italian lock down villages. If you can you can go on to say nobody has returned from lock down areas anywhere in the world. Some have returned from areas where the advice is clear on being vigilant in case symptoms appear. If that were to be the case they will then follow the self isolate advice, etc. it would be sensible to recognise that the situation is very dynamic and could already be changing as you send your communication. You will update them on your position if anything material changes, but they can also keep up to date ...

DS Risk Warning: UK raises terror threat level to ‘severe’ following Vienna attack

By
  Home Secretary Priti Patel has confirmed the escalation of the UK terror threat level from "substantial" to "severe" following an attack in Vienna that left at least three dead. The change means that an attack on UK soil is now deemed "highly likely". The Joint Terrorism Analysis Centre has changed the UK terror threat level from substantial to severe. This is a precautionary measure and is not based on any specific threat. The potential is for UK based 'lone wolfs' to be emboldened to take action themselves which could take place anywhere in the UK. We are asked to continue to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity to the police on 999 or the anti-terrorist hotline: 0800 789 321. If your information does not relate to an imminent threat, you can also contact MI5 . What the threat levels mean: Threat levels are designed to give a broad indication of the likelihood of a terrorist attack. LOW means an attack is highly unlikely MODERATE ...
