Humberside Police

Police are appealing for information following the theft of some tools whilst a workman was undertaking repairs at a property on Falkirk Close, Bransholme on Monday 29 April 2013. Between 1100hrs and 1130hrs on Monday 19 April 2013, a man working at a house on Falkirk Close left his tools on the doorstep of the property where he was undertaking repairs to briefly return to his van parked outside. The man reports that whilst standing at the back of his van, he was approached by two people who pushed him into his van and shut the doors. A short time afterwards the man freed himself from the van to find that his tools had been taken from the doorstep. The victim believes one of the thieves may have been a man wearing a grey jumper/hoody. The tools taken were in a Makita tool bag and consisted of a Makita jigsaw, a Makita vault planner, a Makita circular saw and Makita digital radio. Anyone who knows anything about this incident is asked to contact Humberside Police on the non emergency number 101 quoting crime reference number 1971192 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

Humberside Police

As part of Operation Rogue Trader, Humberside Police are taking part in a day of action to target those people who target elderly and vulnerable people, by charging them extortionate prices for work to be carried out at their homes. Officers from across the force will be working with representatives from local Trading Standards authorities to disrupt those people who are intent on par taking in this type of criminal activity and to engage with the public to get the message out about rogue traders. Rogue traders target homes all across the force and officers will act quickly to try and catch these opportunist thieves before they target more homes. Recently in Hull a man was jailed for 16 months after being found guilty of selling fish to an elderly couple. Christopher Williams (31), sold £20 worth of fish to a couple for £2280. Williams was quickly apprehended by officers and appeared at Hull Crown Court earlier this month. Detective Inspector Simon Gawthorpe said: “This operation will see officers from across the force, working very closely with Trading Standards Officers to tackle doorstep crime and rogue traders. “The people who carry out these types of offences target the elderly and…

Ruth Gordon-Morton, an American ex-pat living in Driffield, East Yorkshire is bringing Colin David Reese to perform his one act play Shakespeare Unbound at the North Dalton Village Hall on February 23, 2013. Mr. Reese is a British actor and director with more than forty years of experience. He has shared a stage with icons such as Sir John Gielgud, Alan Bennett and Nigel Hawthorne. At forty years old, he moved to Paris to spend two years as a student at the Ecole Internationale du Theatre with Jacques Lecoq. Colin Reese wrote Shakespeare Unbound after years of research into the vast body of writings about Shakespeare, the theatre of his time, the social place of players (actors) in Elizabethan/Jacobean life and a curiosity regarding what it must have been like to be a player on the boards of The Theatre, The Globe and The Blackfriars. He came to the conclusion that Shakespeare’s works were not to be considered philosophy or literature, but written to be performed live on stage, bringing the characters to life and enchanting the audience. Shakespeare Unbound is written from the viewpoint of John Heminges, a life-long friend of “young Will”. Throughout Shakespeare’s life, he has been…
