Worksop’s police beat team continued with their crackdown on crime across the town over the weekend with five arrests.
In the early hours of Friday (26) officers detained a 40-year-old man after it was reported that he had tried to commit a burglary. Following a short foot chase, the male was arrested. He has since been charged with burglary, criminal damage, robbery, and three counts of shop theft.
On the same day, a 51-year-old man, wanted on recall to prison, was arrested. He was promptly transported to Mansfield Custody and returned to prison.
On Saturday the Worksop North Beat team arrested a 43-year-old man on suspicion of four shop thefts and a common assault. He has been charged and remanded and will appear in court this week.
On Saturday evening officers arrested a 46-year-old man on suspicion of shop theft, along with a 48-year-old man at the scene for obstructing a Police Officer. The 46-year-old man was charged the next day and remanded and will appear in court this week, while the 48-year-old man was charged and bailed to appear in court at a later date.
