Police investigating an incident of disorder in Keighley are appealing for information. It happened in Devonshire Street at about 7.40pm yesterday (Monday) and resulted in damage to several vehicles and a house. Three males have been arrested in connection with the incident and enquiries into the circumstances are ongoing. Detective Chief Inspector Warren Pitman, of Bradford District Police, said: “We understand the impact incidents such as this can have on local communit...ies. We are working with the community and our partners and there is no suggestion at this time of a wider risk to the public. “However, disorder will not be tolerated and there will be increased patrols through our Neighbourhood Policing Team to offer reassurance to the community.” Enquiries are also continuing to establish if an 18-year-old male who attended hospital for treatment a short time later was injured in this incident. Anyone who can assist this investigation is asked to contact Bradford District CID on 101, quoting log 1754 of 25 March. Information can also be reported at www.westyorkshire.police.uk/101livechat or anonymously to the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.

You may remember a few weeks back that PCSO Leahy invited a very special little boy PC Henry to the police station after he came up to him in town and told him how much he loved the police!
Today PC Henry came and met officers in the station, he learnt about what our officers do, he did some fingerprinting and got a station tour with PCSO Leahy and PC Detoeuf ... he turned up in his own uniform complete with truncheon and handcuffs! We helped him with a uniform complete with radio!
It is his birthday on Monday and his mum and dad said it was the best present he could have had! Happy Birthday PC Henry ... what a wonderful police officer you will be one day!
