Local Policing News - Shepherdswell

Good afternoon, 

I wanted to provide a short update relating to policing activities in Shepherdswell over the past few days. 

As you may have seen on recent social media posts, there have been reports to Kent Police of a naked male within the village. On my patrols throughout the week, it was clear there was concern within the community regarding this, and a prompt response was required. For the past two days, myself and my colleagues from Dover Neighbourhood Policing Team and the Divisional Support Unit have been out on foot within the village. This morning at 06:05am, a male was located and arrested on suspicion of indecent exposure. Enquiries are still ongoing relating to this matter. I would like to thank all members of the community for their assistance. 

On a different note, on Wednesday I noticed a car parked on Church Hill which had clearly been at the location for some time. DVLA checks showed this had been untaxed for several months. I therefore seized this vehicle using DVLA powers. Any vehicle left on public roads must be taxed or it runs the risk of being removed without notice. 

Wishing you all an enjoyable weekend, 

PC Jon Bowler
