🔪 A suspect that threatened someone with a knife in Pool was arrested after police conducted an area search and found the person matching the description. The knife was also found. Good team work from D section response team.

😎 Our Police Cadets attended Carn Brea family fun day and had a great time showing the children the police car and taking fingerprints.

🚓 A male who kicked 3 wing mirrors off police cars was sent to court and given a £40 fine.

❌ A group of drunk children in Camborne have been taken home to their parents and appropriate referrals submitted.

🚫 A male has been arrested tonight and is currently in custody for assaults, shoplifting and breaches of his Criminal Behaviour Order. We'd like to thank the member of public in Iceland, Camborne who stopped the male from leaving with even more items.

🔥 A number of youths are being referred to youth justice after setting fire to a hedge in Penponds. If it wasn't for local people putting it out, it would have spread much further. The photo shows the extent of the damage.

Bank Holiday! | Have a safe TRIP

Whether you’re leaving the south west or coming to visit, have a safe and enjoyable summer holiday road trip.

Follow the T.R.I.P. checks every driver needs to perform to keep themselves, their passengers and other road users safe.

TOP UP your fuel or battery, oil and screen wash
REST with planned stops of at least 15 minutes every two hours
INSPECT tyre pressure, tread depth and for cracks or tears before setting out
PREPARE for all weather conditions…it may be very hot, or we may have rain and thunderstorms

We’ll add that SPEED limits are there for your safety, they are not a target. Drive within the limit and to prevailing road, weather and traffic conditions. So, TRIPS: as easy to remember as TRIP.

🚗 Have a great bank holiday! 😎

Eclipse! | Keep yourself and everyone else safe

😎 Sound advice about watching the eclipse on Wednesday from David Jones, Consultant Ophthalmologist with the Royal Cornwall Hospitals Trust. Click on the link.

🚗 If you are traveling to a vantage point to watch, please park safely and responsibly in official car parks and marked areas, don’t cause an obstacle by parking on verges, kerbs or pavements. Emergency vehicles need access everywhere at all times 🚑

🔥 Avoid the use of barbecues and be careful with disposing of ci******es, especially in countryside locations – it’s tinder dry out there. Please take your litter home with you.
