Pocklington Police Report June 2017

Pocklington Provincial Update for June 2017

1. Priority
Issue: Pocklington Town Centre area (Evenings):

Throughout June we are to continue our high visibility patrols of the Pocklington Town Centre area to deter potential anti-social behaviour. These patrols include regular checks on peripheral areas at Pocklington Infants’ School, Maxwell Road (periodic reports of criminal damage and youths causing annoyance), All Saints Church (periodic reports of anti-social behaviour on an evening), the Tennis Club (reports of anti-social behaviour, (ASB)) and town car parks (reports of low level anti-social behaviour). Criminal offenders will be challenged robustly, arrested or reported for summons. Penalty Notices for Disorder or warning letters may be used in appropriate cases however, those who offend should expect to be arrested and dealt with if their anti social behaviour amounts to criminal offending.  The exercise of discretion should not be expected.

2. Pocklington – Vehicle related nuisance
To reduce anti-social behaviour (ASB) and its impact on the communities within the Pocklington area as well as taking positive action against offenders who cause ASB with their vehicles.  Hotspot areas in Pocklington will be checked regularly and any drivers using their cars to cause alarm or distress will be considered for warnings and possible seizure of their vehicles under Section 59 of the Police Reform Act. (Two cars were issued with Section 59 warnings in May).

3. Examples of crimes in your area
  • A car wheel arch was scratched by a sharp object causing damage.
  • A decked area at Pocklington Infant School has been damaged.
  • Two cars parked near Allerthorpe Woods were broken into and coats, a phone, a sat nav, car keys and other items were stolen.
  • The tarpaulin wicket covers at Pocklington cricket club have been damaged.
  • A trailer and wall were damaged in an attempted theft at a farm near Pocklington.


4. News and Appeals
Bicycle security

What can you do to protect your property?

  • If you haven’t done so already register your bicycle’s frame number along with any pictures and other details you have on www.immobilise.com.  (Registration on Immobilise only takes a few minutes and it’s free. All you need is your bike's make, model, identifying number code(s) and a few photographs).  If your bike is stolen or lost this free online register will inform all UK police and registered second hand dealers that your bike is missing and should it be offered for sale to a registered dealer or come into contact with any police force then a check of the system could reunite you with your stolen or lost bike.

  • Invest in a quality lock, eg a D lock, to help reduce the risk of your bike being stolen. Consider using two different types at the same time, as thieves rarely carry tools to break two different lock types.

  • Lock your bike every time you leave it – it only takes seconds to steal! Keep the gap between the bike and the lock small, so inserting tools is made harder and where ever possible keep the locking barrel facing the ground too as this makes access more difficult.

  • Look at where you are storing your bike and make sure that your shed or garage is secured with a good quality lock. Many shed windows are never used, if this is the case – why not screw them shut. Fitting mesh or steel bars across the window from the inside allows light to enter but means the thief has to go to a lot of trouble to remove them. Replace broken glass with laminated glass. Consider putting an alarm on the shed too – this could be a battery alarm or look at having the shed connected to the house alarm if you already have one.

  • Consider buying a cycle anchor that can be bolted to the wall or floor of your shed which your cycle can then be fastened to or if you have several cycles lock them altogether.

  • If you are having to leave your bike out on the street, where possible leave it in a well lit area and lock both the frame and wheels to the bike stand.  If there is no stand, ensure that it’s locked to secure street furniture eg railings or a lamp post. Try and avoid leaving your bike out overnight (even if well secured) as there are many valuable parts which could be gone by morning.

Wolds Weighton Update for June 2017

Criminal offenders will be challenged robustly, arrested or reported for summons. Penalty Notices for Disorder or warning letters may be used in appropriate cases however, those who offend should expect to be arrested and dealt with if their anti social behaviour amounts to criminal offending.  The exercise of discretion should not be expected.

2. Priority

Issue: Youths Causing Annoyance (Evenings):

Allerthorpe Sprint Triathlon Sunday 4th June

Sunday 4th June - Allerthorpe Sprint Triathlon.
Just a reminder about the event this Sunday. The route goes through the village so you may encounter competitors if you are out and about. Here is some information from the organiser.


This event is a short distance triathlon ideally suited to novice triathletes or those who prefer a shorter race. It has a 750m swim a 20km cycle ride and a 5km run.
Following the swim in the lake at Allerthorpe Lakeland Park, competitors will complete the 20km cycle route, which heads out from the Park towards Melbourne, turning left at Campy Lane. The route then progresses to Bielby via Mill Lane, then via Crudhall Lane and Carr Lane to Join the A1079  (West bound). Following a left turn at the roundabout the riders head back through Allerthorpe to return to Allerthorpe Lakeland Park.
After a quick change, competitors then complete the 5km out and back run which takes them left from the Park towards Melbourne and then 1st left at Marketbridge Lane. They turn around near Oakbridge Farm and return along the same route to finish back at the Park.
The first swimmers will start at 9:00am and we would expect everyone to be finished by around 11:00am.

The WI Healthy(ish) Carrot cake
This is a lovely fragrant cake — the carrot being enhanced with mellow spices. For the competition leave it to cool and finish with the cream-cheese icing and walnut top.
(PER SQUARE: 336 calories, 22 g fat )
CAKE INGREDIENTS;
225 g (8 oz) self-raising flour
1 and a half teaspoons baking powder
1 tablespoon ground mixed spice
1 teaspoon ground ginger
175 g (6 oz) golden caster sugar
50 g (2 oz) walnut halves, chopped roughly
3 large eggs, beaten
200 ml (7 oz) sunflower oil
Half a teaspoon vanilla extract
225 g (8 oz) finely grated carrot

FOR THE ICING;
175 g (6 oz) low-fat cream cheese
25 g (1 oz) butter or margarine, softened
80 g (3 oz) icing sugar, sifted
lemon juice
vanilla extract
15 walnut halves, to decorate
1 Preheat the oven to Gas Mark 4/electric oven 180oC/fan oven 160oC. Grease and base-line a
shallow tin, 17 x 26 cm (6 1⁄2 x 10 1⁄2 inches).
2 In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder and spices. Stir in the sugar and
walnuts.
3 Make a well in the centre and add the eggs, oil and vanilla extract.
Stir until smooth. Mix in the carrot and spoon into the prepared tin. Level the surface and bake in the centre of the oven for 40-45 minutes, until a metal skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean. Allow to cool in tin for 10 minutes before turning out on to a wire rack to cool.
4 To make the icing, beat together the cream cheese and butter or margarine in a bowl, until
smooth. Gradually add the sifted icing sugar, followed by a squeeze of lemon juice and a few drops of vanilla extract, to taste.
5 Spread the icing evenly over the cake's surface. Mark into 1 5 squares and decorate each

with a walnut half. Cover with cling film, to prevent it from drying out, and keep refrigerated.

The leaflet and entry form are at the printers at the moment so we will be delivering them to your door as soon as we get them but in the meantime we hope you enjoy getting your entries ready for the show.
