It seems like where I live and very Rarely see a cop car even patrolling. I hope the gent threatened is okay and not too shaken up by the ordeal.

Welcome to the forum!

Yes, I heard about that. Not a part of the world where you'd expect something like that to happen ... A sad sign of the times.

And the person in custody claimed that the £995 found in his pocket was from a win on the 3.30 at Wincanton !
