SENTENCED | A Malvern man was sentenced to just over two years and four months in prison for burglary when he appeared in court today (Tuesday 9 June).

David Cox, 41, of Martin Close, Malvern, pleaded guilty to burglary dwelling and breaching a restraining order at Worcester Crown Court.

Cox was sentenced to a total of 876 days in prison (two years, four months and 26 days) for the burglary offence and the restraining order to run concurrently.

He was arrested on Saturday 9 May near to Elgar Avenue by Malvern Safer Neighbourhood Team (SNT) officers PC Wayne Waldron and PCSO Becky Bullock, who spotted him hiding in a hedge.

Working with CID, they brought him before the court and he was sentenced today.

PC Wayne Waldron, the arresting officer, said: “Cox is a persistent thief and burglar in Malvern whose criminality negatively impacts residents and businesses in our community.

“We are pleased to have caught him not long after he had committed this burglary and collect the evidence so CID could build the case which has seen him sent to prison today to protect the people of Malvern from his harmful actions.”

ROGUE TRADERS...

If you are approached by a cold caller offering to do repairs on your home, turn them away.

Call 0808 223 1133 and report it to Trading Standards.

Think before you buy !
• Do I want it ? *
• Do I need it done ?
• Can I afford it ?
• Is it good value ?
• Can I get a quote from someone else ?
• Do I have a written estimate or quote ?
• Do I have the right to cancel ?
• Do I know the name and address of this person ?
• Do I have the person's telephone number ?

Would you have bought this item or had these repairs done if the trader had not called ? If the answer is no, think very carefully before you agree to anything.

If the goods or services cost more than £42, you usually have 14 days to change your mind and cancel the contract.
By law, the trader must give you a written notice detailing your rights to cancel the contract. Failure to do this is a criminal offence.

Burglars won't go to the trouble of breaking in if they can just knock and be invited in. Always be on your guard when anyone you're not expecting turns up at your door. Never let anyone in unless you are absolutely sure they are genuine.

If you are a householder, you are required by law to take reasonable steps to check traders removing waste from your premises are authorised.

Call the Environment Agency on 03708 506 506 and ask for a free instant Waste Carrier Validation Check to make sure. If the person doing your work dumps your rubbish, you the householder are responsible.

If a trader refuses to leave, call the Police. If you feel it is an emergency please call 999, or the non-emergency number 101 or you can make an online report on the West Mercia Police Website.

If you have information about any suspected crime, please let us know using the online ‘Tell Us About’ form on our website https://orlo.uk/QCiEe .

We are appealing for information after a cat was injured in what is believed to have been a BB or pellet gun shooting in Tenbury.

The cat's owner last saw her pet leave their home in Spring Gardens at around 11.30pm on Sunday evening (31 May). When the cat returned the following morning, it had suffered a circular wound.

The animal was taken to a veterinary practice, where staff advised that the injury was consistent with being shot by a BB or pellet gun.

Officers would like to hear from anyone who was in the Spring Gardens area that evening and may have witnessed anything suspicious or who has information that could help identify those responsible.

Anyone with information is asked to email: [email protected]

Can You Please Help Us Return a Child’s Stolen Bicycle

We are appealing for information following the theft of a bike that belongs to a 6-year-old Child.

On Friday 29th of May, in the afternoon, a child’s bike was stolen from Malvern Pump Track.

The bike is a silver ‘PREVELO’ bike (like the one in photo).

Understandably the Child has been left feeling upset and we are eager to return the bike to the Child as soon as possible.

If you have any information that may help re-unite the bike with the Child, please email : [email protected]

Thank you
PCSO Kev Tudge

Officers are reminding members of the public over the laws around trespassing in abandoned or derelict buildings and burglary in response to recent incidents in Worcestershire.

One incident saw three teenage boys arrested on suspicion of burglary last Thursday (28 May) after accessing a property undergoing renovation in Droitwich.

They were bailed pending further enquiries, but police are warning of the safety risks and potential criminality for anyone thinking of doing the same.

Abandoned and derelict buildings often contain unstable structures, exposed wiring, hazardous materials, and unsafe flooring and there is and high risk of serious injury from falls, collapsing walls or ceilings, and other environmental dangers.

It can also place the emergency services at additional risk when responding to incidents in unsafe environments.

In terms of the law, entering a building without permission may constitute criminal trespass or burglary, depending on the circumstances.

Causing damage to property, whether intentional or reckless, can result in charges of criminal damage and individuals found inside such buildings may also be subject to arrest if tools or items associated with forced entry are present.

Safer Neighbourhood Inspector for Droitwich Lisa Hornberger said: “We would like to remind members of the public around the laws and safety risks around entering abandoned buildings following some recent incidents.

“We are discouraging people from committing an unlawful entry and encouraging parents to speak to their children around this too.

“We cannot emphasise enough that such behaviour can lead to both serious harm and/or criminal prosecution.”
