I would have just missed this doing the school run. Hopefully no other children were close as there're usually walking home along the glascote road at that time.

A woman has been arrested following a collision in Tamworth.

We went to Glascote Road just after 3.30pm yesterday (Monday 15 January) after a Ford Kuga was seen driven dangerously in the area.

The car then collided with a bollard.

A 58-year-old woman, from Tamworth, was arrested on suspicion of drink driving. She is still in custody today (16 January).

If you were in the area and have any information or dashcam footage that could help us with our enquiries, please get in touch by calling 101, quoting incident 425 of 15 January, or by using Live Chat on our website.

If you prefer to stay anonymous, you can call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

🦊 It is currently mating season for foxes. If you see a fox running across the road there may well be another following closely behind. During mating season it is not unusual for male foxes to chase away rivals and pursue females.

⚠️ Please be mindful when driving, particularly in icy conditions and especially in areas near to some of Tamworth's many nature reserves. Not only for the protection of the animal but also for the safety of you and other road users.

🌤️ It is also worth noting that foxes do not just come out during hours of darkness. They can be quite active during the daylight too.

I appreciate the acknowledgment of the issue but this has been going on for way too long.

Letter regarding Blythe Street parking issues. Cllr Dean and I will be following it up.

The field and road along Blythe street and the small area by Canterbury close were some of the places litter picked by me during my campaign for councillor as I am a proponent of councillors looking after the area and it’s people rather than putting their party first, but sadly these areas have evidently regressed back to looking atrocious again.

I will contact our councillors soon and request a bin to be placed in the area which will hopefully alleviate the issue.
