FOUND CANNABIS GROW

Good morning folks,

Welcome again to our new users of Derbyshire Alert. I hope these Alert messages are useful.

Recently, Sunday 28th of September, there was suspicious circumstances at an address on Park Road, Overseal, and eventually two offenders were arrested for cultivation of Cannabis, approximately 200 plants.

If anyone has any information they feel would help us with ongoing enquiries then please ring 101 and quote occurrence number 25000573720

We've also received reports whereby children are not restrained appropriately in car seats. Therefore please make sure every car journey is a safe one.

Children love to sit in the front seat but sitting in the back is far safer

Backless booster seats or booster cushions might seem an easier choice but seats with high backs offer protection for the child's neck and back and will help keep them in place if they fall to sleep.

Thick winter coats prevent harness straps from fitting close to your child's body therefore remove thick clothing and put a removable blanket over child until vehicle warms up.

It is illegal to carry a child in a rearward facing child seat in the front, if there is a front passenger active airbag. 

It is the drivers responsibility to ensure that children under the age of 14 yrs are restrained correctly in accordance with the law otherwise you may face a fine up to £500 if you are found travelling with children using a seat which is incorrect for their age, height and weight.

More fitting tips and advice can be found at www.derbyshire.gov.uk and www.childcarseats.org.uk 

Please keep our children safe.

The pictures below show a small proportion of Cannabis being cultivated in one room but further rooms also had grows in them.
