01:39You can argue.

01:41I will argue.
01:52There's been another big memory
01:54down in Derby.
01:55This footage comes through
01:57on a ring doorbell
01:58that some old fellas had.
01:59Nicked everything.
02:00The medals.
02:01All sorts.
02:02Following a rise in thefts
02:04across the East Midlands.
02:06They nicked a van last week
02:07in the past 30 or so.
02:08Yes.
02:09Officers like PC Craig Dawes
02:11are on the lookout
02:12for thieves who target
02:13homes and businesses.
02:16Theft by organised crime groups
02:17has increased
02:18over the last couple of years.
02:21They're in and out
02:22in a couple of minutes
02:23and gone
02:24because of how good they are at it.
02:28Okay.
02:29Lovely.
02:30Have a good day.
02:34The general public are going out
02:35to work
02:36and having to work hard
02:37and you've got people
02:38who are involved in the
02:39organised crime.
02:40They are living, you know,
02:41a footballer kind of lifestyle.
02:42Nice clothes, nice cars,
02:44nice houses.
02:45And, you know,
02:46it does annoy you
02:47that they're getting away with that.
02:50Rominatorwall
02:51Derbyshire units.
02:52Observations, please,
02:53for a Mercedes.
02:54And it's pinging on our
02:55ANPR cameras.
02:56Any units like the vehicle,
02:57stop call control.
02:59You ever see?
03:00We've just had an ANPR
03:01hit for a car
03:02that's possibly involved
03:03in theft.
03:05The vehicle is linked
03:06to a string of burglaries
03:07on homes
03:08throughout the Midlands.
03:10They did a similar route going
03:12this morning.
03:13So we're going to go
03:14try and find it.
03:16We've got units
03:17in the area
03:18but no confirmed sightings yet.
03:20It is an organised gang
03:21and they will go up
03:22down the country.
03:23They'll work as a team,
03:24maybe three or four of them.
03:25Like a military operation
03:26for them
03:27that they're good at.
03:29It may come back up
03:30this way as well
03:31so we can't be sure.
03:32It's just a game of cat and mouse.
03:35We can't be exactly sure
03:36where it's going to go.
03:40Craig is one of six units
03:41looking for the suspects.
03:53They've got it.
03:54So that vehicle
03:55has been sighted
03:56to the A38.
03:58While officers approach
03:59the suspect car.
04:00Another unit

04:12Third male

04:14at Burger King.
04:15Which store did he go into?
04:23All three of them
04:24went towards the toilet
04:25inside the service station
04:26together.
04:27Two ran
04:28and he went into the toilet.
04:29and then came back out.
04:34Look I'm coming down 38 now.
04:36As Craig races
04:37to catch up.
04:40Come on!
04:42The three suspects
04:43are still on the run.
04:45Yeah, come on up today.
04:46Stay 38.
04:47They're about to drop over.
04:48That's right.
04:50But one of them
04:51has been spotted by officers.

05:10JT's on the forecourt now.
05:12And we're JT now.
05:13As Craig arrives
05:15traffic cop John Terry
05:17has the suspect detained.

05:29Basically making some inquiries
05:30related to a car
05:31that's in the car park
05:32over there.
05:33OK.
05:34You've been seen by an officer
05:35inside the services
05:36with two lads that have run off.
05:37What are you doing here today?
05:38I have family all over.
05:39I've got friends all over.
05:40OK.
05:41So how have you got here?
05:42I'm staying.
05:43I'm here.
05:44Whatever.
05:45It doesn't matter what it is.
05:46While John questions the suspect
05:48Craig searches his belongings.
05:50Listen to me.
05:51How did you get to the suspect?
05:53Craig searches his belongings.
05:54Listen to me.
05:55How did you get to this area?
05:57I don't know.
05:58You don't know how you got here?
05:59I don't know.
06:00I don't know.
06:01There's an Irish mail.
06:03There's that.
06:0420 grand in cash.
06:05You're under arrest
06:06on suspicion of burglary.
06:08The burglary took place
06:09a couple of nights ago
06:10in Derbyshire.
06:11You're further under arrest
06:12for possession of criminal property.
06:14The name of that
06:15cash and money laundering.
06:16I'll give you the full details
06:17when we get you to custody.
06:18Never satisfied custody now.
06:23We've detained one.
06:24The area two's going across the area 38.
06:26I'll try and locate them two
06:27with the drone and dog unit.
06:30Yes, the area two's confirmed.
06:32We've still got two outstanding.
06:34Three six and three three
06:35are making towards you
06:36for an area search.
06:38Tango, so the area two's going up
06:40with the drone.
06:41Nearby, a dog unit is searching
06:44for the other two suspects.
06:46What was the last eyeball
06:47or visual on these two suspects
06:48running across the 38?
06:50I'm going to go in the other end
06:52to that house in the state.
07:01Juliet 60 out on foot with the dog.
07:04Everyone can remain in the vehicles
07:05while drone and dog are searching, please.
07:12Just give me cover, please.
07:13First property on the right-hand side.
07:17Just got some sets down here.
07:22You say there's a heat signal
07:23to the other side of the fence?
07:24Yes, yes.
07:25Searching that gap now.
07:26The dog's taking me straight through it.
07:27Powered up the A38.
07:28Proceed, thank you.
07:29Please watch the dog.
07:30Come out now.
07:31Come out now.
07:32Come out now.
07:33It'll bite you.
07:34Clothing has been dumped.
07:35Without the clothing,
07:36the jacket, I want them.
07:37Let's find them.
07:38Find them.
07:39With no sign of the remaining suspects.
07:41N860, can I have a unit come join me
07:42in this back garden, please?
07:43Yes, yes.
07:44Backup arrives and checks another property.
07:472-5.
07:48I am in the right place.
07:49I can hear the dog barking.
07:50This is locked.
07:51No, no, no.
07:52No, no, no.
07:53No, no.
07:54No, no.
07:55No, no.

08:10No, no.
08:11A bolt from the inside, a bolt from the top.
08:14This is unlocked.
08:15That's unlocked.
08:16Yeah, right.
08:17Potentially in here.
08:18Get in back, don't take me back!
08:21Coming up...
08:22Get on the floor now!
08:24Officers move in for an arrest.
08:26Get your trash down your bag!
08:28And a search for evidence...
08:30Further large quantity of cash under a cardboard box.
08:33Hits the jackpot.
08:35A Rolex.
08:36Like a treasure trove.
08:41Transcription by CastingWords
09:11Caught in Possession of a Large Amount of Cash
09:13I've got ETA because we've still got two outstanding that we need to try and locate
09:17More officers are searching a local housing estate for two other suspects
09:22From 2-5, I've got a shed. It's locked from the inside. Nick, I'll come to you.
09:33What do you reckon? Possibly. Police officer a dog. Come out now. The dog will bite you. It's your last morning.
09:41Out. I've got this. Move. Move towards me. Move back now. Dave, move back. Move. Move.
09:47Second rail. Out. Show me your hands. Nick, move. Move. Nick, move. Get out. Show me your hands.
09:54Keep walking. Stand up. Stand up now. Get out now. Get out. On the floor. On the floor.
10:00Get your hands behind your back.
10:03I'm not doing nothing wrong with you. You're under arrest.
10:07Submission of theft and out of vehicles. Submission of burglary as well.
10:10What have I done wrong with you? Is that your shed? What have I done wrong with you?
10:13Is it your shed? What have I done? Yeah, I don't think so.
10:17What's your name? I'm far enough to decide. That's fine. That's no problem.
10:21You're going to get fingerprinted in custody anyway, so we want to find out exactly who you are.
10:25Stand up. Oi.
10:26I'm going to stand up with my hands behind my back, mate.
10:28You ready? One, two, three. What are we hurting you for? We're standing you up, chap.
10:32We're not like that. Come and walk with me.
10:36Be fair with me, boys. I'm not doing nothing wrong.
10:38Come on and walk to this car here, chap. Right. In you go.
10:41With all three suspects now in police custody, officers look for evidence.
10:48Fancy hiding in a shed where the only way you can secure it is from the inside? Who knew?
10:55Search our shed.
10:58In a boot.
11:02Large amount of cash.
11:04Looks like 3,000.
11:06Further large quantity of cash under a cardboard box.
11:14I believe that possibly belongs to the wood lice.
11:18Nokia mobile phone.
11:20Large quantity of cash.
11:22A burner mobile phone.
11:24It's like a treasure trove, this shed.
11:27Just keeps on giving.
11:28In a clothes peg bag.
11:33Oh, nice.
11:33Well, it appears to be a Rolex.
11:38Along with the cash on the first suspect,
11:41officers seized more than £20,000
11:43and a high-end watch.
11:47We've had quite a lot of thefts locally.
11:50House breaks and so on reported over the last three, four days.
11:53There's a chance that these males could be responsible for that.
11:58It's something we've got to investigate.
12:00They're not your chances.
12:05These are well-seasoned, experienced criminals.
12:09They're organised.
12:10They've got a possibly cloned, stolen vehicle.
12:15Different number plates in it.
12:17They're booking hotels, paying in cash for a week at a time.
12:19And then just disappear into the night, kind of thing.
12:28There you go, mate.
12:28In you come.
12:33It has been arrested on suspicion of burglary.
12:36Well, I'll try to do a detention at the police station.
12:38That's over to make clear inquiries as necessary into those allegations against you.
12:42And then you will be interviewed about them in due course.
12:44You will.
12:45Would you like anybody to go find your hearing this time?
12:48No.
12:49No?
12:50How would you like to speak to a solicitor?
12:52No.
12:53No?
12:53Burglars do sit high with me.
12:57You know, they're out there.
12:58They're going into people's houses.
13:00They're stealing people's sentimental items.
13:02Stand up straight for me.
13:03What do you front, haven't I?
13:04Go on.
13:05You've been here before.
13:06My parents' house was burgled when I was younger.
13:09And the impact it had on me was the frightening thing of somebody's come through a bedroom window.
13:13I could have been in that bedroom.
13:14All three suspects will be held in custody for questioning.
13:28Could you buzz me out, please, Sergeant?
13:30All good.
13:34These people that are out burgling or stealing, you know, don't have any thought for the victims that are left behind.
13:41And the impact it can have on somebody's life.
13:59Yes, yes.
13:59Pass your details.
14:00Don't run it through.
14:03If I have got any traffic units in the area, this vehicle has got links to a couple of nominals who are known to use it in crime.
14:09So there's observations for this vehicle.
14:12I think you can see if it pings a camera.
14:14More than 60 thefts are reported to Derbyshire Police every day.
14:18Yes, I'm by.
14:20Craig is back on duty, responding to another suspected theft.
14:25Bloody fiesta that's been involved in a shop theft in Chesterfield, where they've pushed a security guard out of the way.
14:34What was that there?
14:36That's not it, is it?
14:37Looking at this vehicle, Sarge, it's got two previous occurrences, the same reg, both thefts from store.
14:46There's two IC1 males and one IC2 female.
14:51Police believe this is the third retailer the gang has targeted in the past week.
14:55It looks like it could be part of several thefts from stores that maybe this group's committing.
15:03We're trying to get all the units on the main roads just to try and basically kind of put a net round the area.
15:11It's just a waiting game now.
15:12It's got to pop up somewhere, we believe.
15:15As Craig waits.
15:17Contact, contact with the vehicle, eh?
15:21Nearby, other units spot the suspected getaway car.
15:26Back in my way.
15:31Take an immediate left, left, left.
15:35Craig and colleague Adam Shipley race to provide backup.
15:38We'll hit an area for a few days to commit crime and then they'll move to a completely other part of the country.
15:45By the time you've started to get a pattern and an idea of who's involved, they've got another car and they've gone.
15:50Two out.
15:51The bike.
15:52The bike is still going.
15:53Do we think they might have decamped?
15:55Yes, yes.
15:56Receive.
15:56Fenders have decamped out of the vehicle.
16:00Right, you let's keep going, I'll get them.
16:01Basically two people who ran from the car.
16:03So we're currently got officers now, trying to get to the area to put a bit of containment.
16:13Up ahead, a dog unit and motorbike officer close in on the suspect.
16:19Vehicle start, vehicle start.
16:21Do not move.
16:22Come towards me.
16:23Come towards me now.
16:25Hands on your head.
16:26Hands on your head.
16:27On your back.
16:31Adam arrives to help with the arrest.
16:40Tanger Mike, four.
16:42PC Dave Naylor begins a search of the white fiesta.
16:47There's lots of forensic opportunities, fingerprints all over an open window where these two have got out and walked off.
16:57There's another set of plates in the boot.
16:59As cloned number plates are used by thieves to avoid detection, Adam speaks to the driver.
17:08Went to pay me for my parking, came back and then there's a security guard and they're wrestling in my car.
17:15And I'm like, what the hell is happening?
17:16Oh, the security site said, you can go because it's nothing to do with me.
17:20It's all right.
17:21In the last year, assaults on shop workers in the UK rose by 50%.
17:28Dangers are giving lifts to people.
17:31Won't be doing that again.
17:32That's for sure.
17:34Yeah.
17:34We've checked the driver out.
17:36He is legal on the car.
17:36He's got a license.
17:37He's got insurance.
17:39Obviously, he's just transporting around and getting involved in theft defences.
17:42So, their fingerprints will hopefully be in the car and I think Dave's seen them touch the window.
17:46So, it's going for a frenzy recovery.
17:49These people have been doing it for their whole lives and they don't care.
17:52They don't got any conscience.
17:53The satisfaction that you've got these people off the streets, it's the reason you joined the job.
17:58It gives you, I don't know, a bit of a buzz.
18:01Local officers take the man to custody for further questioning.
18:05They're still outstanding, the two that jumped.
18:07Close by, Craig Dawes is searching for the two other suspects.
18:13Yes, they were walking back.
18:15Two, three, stage six in the area.
18:18Looking for a male and a female walking around.
18:22What description have you got, male and female?
18:23Male, white, male.
18:26Great, great, great, great, great.
18:28Female, I see one, I believe.
18:32Two, three, I'm going to have a ride up to bus stops and see if they've made their way up there.
18:38Yeah, please.
18:39As soon as they decamp, it proves very, very difficult.
18:41They can blend in.
18:43They could be hiding in gardens, in sheds, they could even have another vehicle they've got into.
18:47So it's getting as many resources as you can into the area and hopefully intercept them.
18:52A member of the public approaches Craig.
18:55Yes, mate.
18:56You're looking for a chap, are you?
18:58Yes.
18:59He'd just been sat on the garden.
19:01Yeah.
19:01And then he jumped into a taxi.
19:03Cheers.
19:04That male has just been seen sitting on a bench and then he's run and jumped in taxis
19:10right near where that decamp was.
19:14It's contact, contact with the vehicle.
19:18I've got a taxi stop too, chap.
19:19Actually, that's the picture you get into the back of his taxi.
19:22All right.
19:24PC Dave McAllister speaks to the suspect.
19:28Where have you just come from, my friend?
19:30Where have I come from?
19:30Yeah.
19:31Why?
19:32Because I'm looking for a chap that's just run from a car.
19:35Not me.
19:36Not you.
19:36Where did you get the call from, bud?
19:37Church.
19:38So you've just come from the church.
19:39What's going on at the church?
19:40Why were you there?
19:41Oh, nothing.
19:41Well, have you got any kind of ID with you?
19:42No.
19:43Why, what's the hold up?
19:44Because you look very much like the chap that's just got out of a car and legged it after a
19:47theft.
19:47What's that?
19:49Can you not tell me what's going on or what's happening?
19:51At the minute, you're detained for the purposes of a search.
19:54Yeah, until I can ascertain who you are.
19:55You match the description.
19:57You've got no real good reason for where you've been.
20:00What's your reason for pulling me over?
20:08What's going on here?
20:09You're going on that kind of terrorist or something?
20:12Craig arrives and questions the taxi driver.
20:15How you doing?
20:15All right?
20:17I want his name on him.
20:18Where's he going to?
20:18He's going to B&M Bargains at Summercoast.
20:24That's where he wants to go.
20:26The man is suspected of assaulting a security guard as he tried to get away from another local
20:31store.
20:32I don't suppose we can get a picture of the offenders, please, or a description of what
20:36the offenders...
20:36Yes, yes.
20:37Officers review CCTV footage of two suspects getting out of the white fiesta.
20:43You can have sent me a copy on Teams as well, man.
20:46Oh, man.
20:47Yeah.
20:47He's got no justification for being here.
20:50He's going to dump his back here.
20:52There's so much going on.
20:53Right, my friend.
20:54Put your hands up for me.
20:55And this time, you're under arrest on suspicion of theft.
20:57From where, though?
20:58That's what I'm saying to you.
20:58You'll get all those details shortly, my friend.
21:00You're going on that kind of terrorist or something, bro.
21:02Mate.
21:02Go this way, then, pal.
21:04I'm not holding you.
21:05I don't know you.
21:06I don't know you, pal.
21:07I'm not ragging you about.
21:09No, I won't keep me on still.
21:09You won't keep me on still.
21:09You won't keep me on still.
21:10You won't keep me on still.
21:11You won't keep me on still.
21:11You won't keep me on still.
21:11I'm thinking about it because you're holding me like a certain sort of sausage.
21:15This is why I'm holding you, just in case you kick off.
21:17Because I'm not kicking off.
21:18I'm going to kick off.
21:18You are, aren't you?
21:19Listen, don't try and protect my...
21:20Mate, you are.
21:22Right, you start getting penal files, man, so then all this shit.
21:25Right, drugged in.
21:27So we've now got two out of three under arrest.
21:29Just seeing if we can find a female who we've now been told that is in this estate somewhere.
21:41But after an hour-long search, there's no sign of the woman.
21:51We know who she is, so it's now going to be tasked for a local car to go and see if they can locate her.
21:59At this point, we've not got any property that's been outstanding.
22:03People are actually going on a full-on shopping trip and stealing to order.
22:07They'll come to one shop, steal, go and drop it off, go back to another one.
22:10They may target six or seven shops in one day.
22:14And, you know, it's kind of their career they've chosen.
22:21Coming up...
22:22I mean, it literally is a shoplifter's paradise, isn't it?
22:25A cross-country shopping spree...
22:27I don't remember being in Northampton.
22:30...raises suspicions...
22:32I just want them to see if they've got a receipt for the purchase of the goods in the back of the car.
22:36Have you been arrested before?
22:38And teenage suspects...
22:39Yeah, for no.
22:40For a knife.
22:42Under arrest.
22:43When I'm right, yeah, I want you to come to the police station so I can laugh at your face.
22:47OK, give us a ring then.
23:01Receive, thank you.
23:02From NA Sierra One, we've had an ANPR activation. Can any ops units start making the way, please?
23:09Derbyshire has seen a 50% rise in shoplifting, the biggest increase for any county in the East Midlands.
23:16It's just hit the ANPR now.
23:20There's just been a hit on a foreign vehicle.
23:24Near Chesterfield, PC Mark White is on alert for a suspicious car.
23:29I think it's like some theft defences in Nottinghamshire.
23:33There it is.
23:34It comes down, there's a Mercedes Vito, and it's clearly not on a Vito, it's on a VW.
23:41Just behind it.
23:46I'll get in front and give it the follow me.
23:49It can reinforce it.
23:51With a firearms unit behind...
23:54Mark brings the vehicle to a stop.
24:11Hiya. Do you speak any English?
24:14A little. OK, have you got your licence?
24:19OK, Romanian.
24:20The driver.
24:21Hello, look. Have you got any identification? Any ID?
24:24And two passengers don't speak English.
24:27Have you got a purse, a wallet? Passport?
24:32The vehicle is linked to two previous thefts
24:35from a homeware store in Nottingham.
24:37There's some photographs of the offenders on Nice from the Notch job.
24:42JT's sending them through to me now. Here we go.
24:48That's her.
24:49With images matching the woman's description.
24:52Mark searches the car.
25:03The two... The linked fences from Notch are B&M.
25:07Yeah.
25:07I guess where all this is from.
25:08Mm, B&M.
25:09I mean, it literally is.
25:15The shoplifter's paradise, isn't it?
25:17It's Jerusalem.
25:18She's medication.
25:21It's a Romanian vehicle with a Romanian driver.
25:24I just need you to speak to him.
25:26I just want them to see if they've got a receipt
25:28for the purchase of the goods in the back of the car.
25:30We need to give it to the families of our relatives in Romania.
25:48Aici avem și suma de bani cât am plătit dacă vreți să-i spuneți pe asigurare.
25:54He list the amount of money that we paid.
25:57Okay, yeah, that's a union credit thing, isn't it?
26:01From Romania, so...
26:02Yeah, I don't know what that's got to deal with.
26:05Nothing, currently, anyway.
26:07Okay, right.
26:07If I need you, I'll ring you back.
26:09Thank you very much.
26:10And I receive an Oscar Tanger 3-1.
26:12In the back, there is thousands of pounds worth of stuff from B&M, mate.
26:16There's a whole shopping bag full of batteries,
26:19all full of kids' stuff, cosmetics.
26:23I don't suppose you've had any reports of a theft-from-shop
26:28coming in from B&M in Derby, by any chance?
26:322-4, thank you.
26:34Let's have a look where it's been today, shall we?
26:39Oh, my God, it's been all over the place today.
26:42It's in South Yorkshire, it's in Derbyshire.
26:46They've had a day out, haven't they?
26:48Yeah, they've had a day out.
26:52There's a mark on the vehicle she's got previously shoplifted.
26:57There are no reports linking the suspects to any thefts in Derbyshire,
27:01so Mark checks neighbouring force areas.
27:04So it could be anywhere between here and Staths.
27:08Yeah.
27:08Afternoon, Staths, it's Derbyshire.
27:12There are reports of people making off from B&M earlier today.
27:172-4, thank you for checking, I'm obliged.
27:20I just spoke to Staths and they've had a report of people making off from B&M in Staffordshire.
27:26I'm sure they'll have CCTV in the store, like they have Knots watch.
27:30Yeah.
27:30Suspecting the males and female have been offending across more than one county today.
27:37Mark calls the translator.
27:39Okay, well, that's, that's, currently that's not up for debate because they have been,
27:52but they're on CCTV, tell them.
27:54It's definitely them, I've seen the photos.
27:55In a moment in time, you're all under arrest and suspicion of a shoplifting offence that happened at Nottinghamshire.
28:02Okay.
28:03That good.
28:03You are going with these, so follow me.
28:09The suspects now face further questioning at the police station.
28:14Can you just take your jacket off for me?
28:18Leaving Mark to recover the car and the items in the boot.
28:22You've got toiletries, it's half a dozen toothbrushes to say the least.
28:25Who needs that many toothbrushes?
28:27A load of high value cosmetics and stuff that's easily resellable at value.
28:32You'll also notice they've sprayed the back of the window,
28:36which I can only assume is to hide the contents.
28:44There's that unit to start making the way for a break in progress,
28:54vehicle being stolen, fender's still unseen.
28:57Yes, I'm sure what it is, it's a land room, fender, and a BWC1, and a BWC6.
29:04Ooh.
29:05Can you show me state 6 of Butch in the general area, please?
29:08Five miles east of Derby.
29:10Thank you, thank you.
29:12This woman said that this went towards the path.
29:18Traffic cop Lee Ridley is en route to a suspected burglary.
29:22So I've had a call from a homeowner saying they've just disturbed a couple of lads
29:27trying to break into the car.
29:29One of them's got a screwdriver.
29:32So we're just heading into the area to see if we can pick these two lads up.
29:36One's wearing a dark tracksuit, one's wearing a grey tracksuit.
29:39Um, on foot.
29:45Right, we are in the general area.
29:51No sign of anybody on foot.
29:56Compteo wants us to be aware we've sent another report on a few lads trying to get into the door of the car.
30:02Apparently the offenders have made up.
30:04Gear received.
30:05We're in the area.
30:06If we can get the main road contained and then we can get more and more units into this drag here,
30:16we can flush them out.
30:18There's pretty much no way out.
30:21Shot 7-1.
30:22All units of water are blocked in.
30:23You've got two males detained, both young lads.
30:29Yeah, I see.
30:31Close by, two suspects have been detained.
30:35I knew it.
30:36I knew they were down here.
30:39Yeah, I'm state 6.
30:40Oh, my dear.
30:43I haven't been doing nothing.
30:45What?
30:46And you're accusing me.
30:48This is what I mean about police.
30:50So you can argue.
30:50Trying to accuse anyone.
30:51You can argue.
30:51We don't just arrest people for no reason.
30:54You've been arrested.
30:54Well, you clearly do arrest for no reason.
30:58Because I'm getting arrested right now.
30:59Okay, well, you can argue with what you like.
31:01I will argue.
31:02You've been arrested and you're going into custody.
31:04Yeah, I will argue.
31:05Back on.
31:06Yeah, I will.
31:08Is your mate normally argumentative?
31:10Lee speaks to the second suspect.
31:13How old are you?
31:1414.
31:1414.
31:15What are you doing out this time of night?
31:16I went to his nons.
31:17I was stopping at his.
31:18We've had reports of two vehicles.
31:20Attempts have been made to break into those vehicles.
31:22Description has been passed.
31:23Two males in tracksuits.
31:25Time of the morning.
31:27You used to have been detained near to that area.
31:29So you're being detained at the moment for a section one pace search.
31:34And I'm going to be looking for any stolen items that may be on your person.
31:38Have you been arrested before?
31:40Yeah.
31:40What for?
31:41For a knife.
31:42For a knife?
31:42You've got a knife on you today?
31:44No.
31:44I've not carried a knife since I got arrested.
31:48That's nice to hear.
31:49Grab a seat in the car for us.
31:50You're formally arrested at this moment in time under arrest on suspicion of vehicle interference.
31:57Attempts after motor vehicle.
31:59So because you're 14, we'll obviously have to notify an appropriate adult.
32:04Who do you live with?
32:05Mum.
32:05Your mum.
32:06Because I haven't done nothing and you're getting me arrested.
32:09When I'm right here, I want you to come to the police station so I can laugh in your face.
32:13OK, give us a ring then.
32:15We'll be down.
32:16Both teenagers will be taken to custody for questioning.
32:20It's kind of funny.
32:21Is it?
32:22No, it's kind of funny.
32:23Yeah, and later when I leave and then you realise I haven't done nothing, I'm going to laugh in all your faces.
32:29Yeah, but I swear to God.
32:30Theft from vehicles can be young lads this kind of age.
32:35It's not that unusual.
32:36I don't know why.
32:37Whether it's just for, just some quick cash for them.
32:40Is it the background they've come from?
32:43Is it kind of peer pressure from the mates?
32:46If this is the crime they're committing at 14, what does it lead on to as they turn into adults?
32:52Unfortunately, it's this cycle that tends to go on and on into adulthood, committing very well organised high value thefts if that behaviour can't be nipped in the bud right from the very beginning.
33:08Lee visits the victims who have footage of the attempted theft.
33:13I've just got two lads trying to get in my daughter's car.
33:15Both car doors open.
33:17Ooh, been described as almost childlike.
33:22We are seeing an increase in burglaries.
33:27Hello, have you got the footage on your phone?
33:30Yeah, if you just, I'll just, I'll just come in.
33:33It's very difficult for us to kind of link them to that offence without clear identification from CCTV.
33:39Here's them coming through the front and then on the front door camera.
33:47Yeah, that's 100% the chap that, yeah.
33:50Oh, what's he trying to do?
33:52He's trying to get the camera off, but it's Wi-Fi, so.
33:56That's him bang to rights, basically.
33:59He's the chap that's adamant.
34:00We've got the wrong person.
34:01He's done nothing wrong.
34:03And we've got to apologise to him in the morning when he laughs in our faces.
34:10Right.
34:10OK, the other lad, I'll just double check it matches his clothing as well.
34:15Yeah, that's him.
34:16I think the footage is, it's probably about the best I've ever seen for someone that's been detained on scene.
34:22I don't think you're going to get a better close-up.
34:25100% that's him.
34:26You can see very clearly he's got a screwdriver on him attempting to tamper with the ring doorbell footage.
34:32So I suspect it's been flung somewhere.
34:35I think maybe he owes us an apology rather than the other way around.
34:40I love jobs like that.
34:42When you're getting banged to rights on footage.
34:46Come on!
34:47Coming up.
34:48Get ready to go near side.
34:50Derbyshire's road crime team raced to intercept a suspect car.
34:54Come through, come through.
34:56I'll stay behind, I'll stay behind.
34:58Linked to several shop thefts.
35:01Following a sharp rise in shop thefts across the East Midlands, the police are on high alert for suspects on the move.
35:28The vehicle, yesterday on stage, which is the 861, is a repeat shop lifter.
35:36Yes, please.
35:37Put the Australian unit to it.
35:40Yes, please.
35:41I'm going to travel down.
35:43Yes, sir.
35:44PC Nick Lovett and Derbyshire's road crime team are looking for a silver Vauxhall linked to a string of thefts.
35:51We've just had a report.
35:53There's been a shoplifting in Chesterfield where a male has been seen to steal items and then get into a vehicle.
36:03Just running through and car.
36:05To say that I've got very, very strong dislike to these people is an understatement.
36:11Whether there's one burger in Derbyshire or ten, they need identify and put him before the courts.
36:16Come on!
36:17I don't care.
36:18Honestly.
36:19The vehicle is linked to Sheffield, so we're expecting it to use the road just to our left.
36:33Nick is in an unmarked car.
36:35When you've got criminals that are hopping over borders, they try and do it very quickly, commit the crime, disappear.
36:47If they see us, we don't know how they're going to react.
36:52It's that one.
36:56Silver Saloon is going to move to lane one.
37:00I believe it has seen us.
37:02Yeah, please.
37:03It's now on to the roundabout, on to the roundabout.
37:13It's cut in front of a vehicle.
37:15It's not one, not one.
37:19It's going to be the second, the second.
37:23Just for information, I'm unmarked vehicle, pursuit management trained.
37:27Thank you to me as much as you can about the occupant of the vehicle.
37:31I'm going to believe it's two occupants.
37:34Driver is male.
37:35I can't ID him.
37:38I've only got one vehicle with me, so I can't preemptive tactics at this moment in time.
37:43Waiting for other units.
37:44Sorry to the map, they're roundabout ahead of you, Nick.
37:48Received, mate.
37:49Speed is 5-0 in a 40.
37:53Vehicle's still being driven normally on the brakes into the traffic.
37:58Nick, I'm about seven cars behind you.
38:01Received.
38:01As the car slows, more units move into position.
38:07I'll keep circling.
38:08If we get a chance, I'll get in front of it.
38:12It's on the approach to the roundabout.
38:14Luke, get ready to go near side.
38:16It's now on to the roundabout, on to the roundabout.
38:20It's not one, not one.
38:24Attention.
38:24It's going to be the third, the third.
38:28Speed is now 4-0 in a 4-0.
38:31Lane one.
38:33Come through, come through.
38:34I'll stay behind.
38:35I'll stay behind.
38:52Let's go.
38:52Let's go.
38:54Put your fag out.
38:56Put your fag out.
38:59Okay.
39:01Listen to me.
39:01At this moment in time, you're both under arrest on suspicion of theft.
39:05Do you understand?
39:08Step out for me.
39:09Thanks for ascending my car.
39:11Oh, so what?
39:12Yeah.
39:13Just a bit of a shock.
39:14Bit of a shock?
39:16Yeah, I know.
39:17It wasn't a bit of a shock, because you knew we'd been behind you for a while.
39:20Yeah, exactly.
39:21So it's not a shock, is it?
39:22I think it's a person to it.
39:23Okay.
39:24Put your handbrake on.
39:25All right.
39:25Okay.
39:26And where are you from?
39:27I'm living in Sheffield.
39:28Sheffield, yeah.
39:29Okay.
39:29Is that your car?
39:30Yeah.
39:31Insured and licensed?
39:33Okay.
39:34You're going to be taken to Ripley Police Station.
39:38Okay.
39:38With the two suspects on route to custody, Nick and Luke search the car.
39:48Inside, there is a bobble hat.
39:51It's car parts, jerry cans, jump leads, cat beds.
39:57Everything that you can think of, other than what we're looking for.
40:01Further information that we've got, as he's been leaving, shop staff have managed to drag
40:08a backpack off him, which would have contained the items.
40:11The suspect fled from the store empty-handed.
40:15Who carries around an empty bag?
40:18I do not know any other lady that would have a handbag that's completely empty.
40:24Would you?
40:24And then there is a red carrier bag, which has got tea towels in.
40:32It's still with the labels on, so it'll all be seized.
40:36Be careful for any shafts, because there's bits of folly and stuff.
40:41Cheers, mate.
40:41Yeah.
40:42The officers have also found evidence of drug use.
40:46For some drug users, criminality is their way of life.
40:49It's how they earn money, and it's quite a big, significant problem.
41:01Do you want to speak to a solicitor?
41:03Not this time, no.
41:04Do you have any drug, alcohol, gambling dependencies?
41:07Um, methadone.
41:09Methadone?
41:10Yeah.
41:11Have you had today's?
41:12No, I've had no methadone.
41:15When did you last die of heroin?
41:18Last.
41:18It's not only this one.
41:22It's up to you, it's up to you, it's up to you.
41:24It's up to you, it's up to you.
41:25It's up to you, it's up to you.
41:25It's up to you, it's up to you.
41:27It's up to you, it's up to you.
41:28OK?
41:28The officer will go get to yourself in a second.
41:30Yeah.
41:34Whether committed by organised gangs or drug users stealing to fund their habits,
41:39last year there were nearly 22,000 thefts across Derbyshire.
41:44I've been on the unit a long time and I'm still motivated and committed to going out
41:55and practically hunting down the people that cause misery to others.
42:01I was once told when I first joined the police that it can be a once every 10 years statistic
42:10for a police officer to catch a burglar actually in the property at the time that we turn up.
42:16For every organised group that we stop, there's probably 10 that managed to get through the net.
42:23But if we just rolled over and gave up and said, well, we're fighting a losing battle,
42:28then what's the point?
42:29Even if we take one car out, at least it's one car that's not then going on,
