I A RURAL crime wave is | being actively targeted by police and they want help


] from the public. Thef ts from vehicles are


I increasing, and one. car police are interested in tracing is a


| blue Vauxhall Cavalier which was seen re c en tly near Clitheroe Golf Club. The car is thought to be linked to sev­ eral incidents and is claimed to have been used by three


people described as "scruffy


individuals". Other activities involve


thefts of machinery such as lawn mowers and power wash­ ers, tools and diesel fuel which are kept at farms, outbuildings and garages of rural homes. Two vehicles considered to be


Inspector Bob Ford,^ of «f TJ-I.


connected to these incidents are a white Vauxhall Cavalier and a blue Ford Transit van, both possibly of "G" registration. They are thought to be used by groups working together.


Clitheroe police, said: "This is classic rural crime and occurs mainly between midnight and 5 a.m." He said that night hours are advantageous to these activities, but that the sounds of running engines, unusual noise and the slamming of car doors are not normal in quiet locations at those times, so peo­ ple woken or noticing anything should check and note registra­ tions of vehicles and descrip­ tions of anyone seen.


Hp said that they should I e not


be approached but urged that the details be forwarded to the


police: Criminal and anti-social


activities may also be spotted by those whose employment, such as milk and newspaper deliveries, takes them out in the early hours. Insp. Ford asks everyone be aware of abnormal activities and contact Clitheroe police on 01200 443344 if any­ thing suspicious is noticed.

People who do n o t know if th e y qualify geographically should telephone the appeal


office. Appeal chairman John Sheard said: "These grants will be open to small businesses, volun­ tary organisations and individuals in Graven and the Ribble Valley who have been badly affected by the foot and

mouth epidemic but who have fallen outside the net for compensation from official sources. "That could include


small farmers whose stock has not been culled but who have suffered because they cannot move their animals to market." Other people who


work in the agricultural- support field such as dry-stone wallers and sheep shearers whose livelihoods have been devastated could also benefit, along with scores of small business­ es such as B&Bs, pubs, restaurants and shops. In the voluntary sec­

about the future. "If we lose these small

Car had all its four wheels


taken in theft at Barrow ALL four wheels were taken from a car parked in Catlow Terrace, Barrow, at the


weekend. The vehicle was jacked up during the night and


its alloy wheels, complete with tyres and valued at £600, were removed. The car was left resting on old


tyres. The incident follows a similar theft of alloy wheels


from a car parked off Mitton Road in Whalley dur­ ing the previous week. Both cars were Vauxhall Corsa B models, and there is concern that thieves


may be focusing on this type of car. Police are asking for help with information about


the thefts. Anyone having knowledge about the inci­ dents or being offered alloy wheels at a reduced price is requested to contact them on 01200 443344.

We reached'the maternity unit just after Doug had managed to find a park­ ing space a t the hospital and p u t money in the machine. We therefore beat him to the doorsl" Both mum and daugh­

later in Burnley General


Hospital. Before the collapse,


she had apparently been


in good health. The Bast Lancashire


Coroner, Mr David Smith, said th a t the inquest was needed because Mrs Preston had died after an operation. The hearing was adjourned to a date to be


fixed. Mr Smith expressed
