Two people in Sussex have become the latest victims of fraudsters phoning and pretending to be police officers. They tell the residents that their bank account has been compromised and that they need to withdraw thousands of pounds for examination and give it to a courier. Detective Inspector Rob Morland said: "The people that call are working off a script and may ask for money or your bank cards and details to be handed over to a courier they are sending to your home. Do not hand over any money and be alert to the fact that they may keep the phone line open and pretend to be the police if you try to report it, requesting that you not to report it further. We don't want to scare people but you need to know that there have been many reports in Surrey and across the south east. If you get a call do not hand over money or your bank cards and details. They may ask you to immediately call them back on 999 but be aware that they are keeping the line open. If you are suspicious that they have left the line open report it to police by mobile phone or ask a neighbour, friend or family member to report it. Police officers would never have a reason to make such calls and you should never hand over cash or your bank details. If you get such a call do not do what they say but report it to police."

Two fire crews from Bognor were called to the terraced house at The Hartings in Flansham at 12.50am this morning after a candle left burning unattended started a fire in the family's living room. The occupier, a woman in her thirties, and her four young children were all asleep in bed when a candle left burning on an oak table caught light to paper and clothing left nearby. Thankfully, the house was fitted with two working smoke alarms which activated and alerted the woman to the developing fire giving the family the time they needed to escape safely. Crews from Bognor were on scene just minutes later and firefighters wearing breathing apparatus entered the house to find the ground floor living room heavily smoke logged. The fire was quickly extinguished using a hose reel but the living room was left damaged by fire and smoke. Incident Commander, Jon Etherinton, said afterwards: "This incident highlights once again the importance of having a working smoke alarm in your home. The family were all asleep in bed when the fire started and had their smoke alarms not alerted them, this fire could have had extremely serious consequences."

TRU officers POLICE report - Ref: PR43744 / 2013 Time: 8am Incident: PC hurt during arrests in West Sussex A police constable was injured in an attempt to stop a suspect car in Ford, West Sussex. The Sussex Road Policing officer approached a stolen car which had come to a stop in a cul de sac, Gaugemaster Way, Ford, shortly after 8am, after being followed by police cars for some distance across West Sussex. It had first been spotted on the eastbound A27 at Emsworth at about 7.15am. As the officer ran up and took hold of the drivers door of the car it reversed and he was trapped by the door, and was dragged along for a short distance before being thrown free. The car sped off, ramming a police car and causing slight injury. However other officers stopped it in nearby Burndell Road, Yapton, soon afterwards, and arrested the two occupants, a man who was driving the car, and a woman passenger. The car had been reported stolen from outside a house in Salisbury, Wiltshire, and the 39-year old man of no fixed address, and the 36-year old Isle of Wight woman, are currently in custody for interview and further enquiries. The officer was treated at St Richards Hospital, Chichester. Police state they are very grateful to local people in Yapton and Ford, who came out and provided valuable assistance, and information about what was happening and the movements of the car. POLICE UPDATE Clive Richardson, 39, of no fixed abode, has been charged with burglary dwelling and the theft of a motor vehicle, both in Salisbury, Wiltshire, on October 27 and 28 respectively. He was also charged with driving a motor vehicle dangerously, using a motor vehicle without third party insurance, failing to provide a specimen for analysis, assault by beating and driving while disqualified, all of the offences alleged to have happened in Gaugemaster Way at Ford, near Arundel, on October 28.
