POLICE Community Support Officers have been praised by the owner of a day nursery for their prompt action in clearing up an offence of vandalism.
Young hooligans plastered mud all over the walls and windows at Culcheth Day Nursery in Warrington Road – pushing into an intercom system and putting it out of action.
Owner Debbie Byrne-Davies decided to report the matter to police because of the damage to intercom system – and the PCSOs were quickly on the scene.
A check of nearby CCTV cameras soon revealed the identities of the culprits.
Debbie said: “They turned out to be very young so I decided not to press charges, but they got a good talking to and their parents were also spoken to. Hopefully this will mean they never put a foot wrong again.
“But I would like to praise the PCSOs. They often get a bad press, but they were wonderful and soon solved the case. I think the incident also illustrates how useful CCTV has become in the village as a deterrent to crime.
“If you are caught on camera you are caught!”

‘Let them off’ – the worst thing you can do, it just reinforces their belief that they can get away with anything. Pity they couldn’t be shipped to the ‘Colonies’ or sentenced to the ship ‘Calayo’. One day liberalism will die and the world will become a better place.
