Good Evening Resident,

This Afternoon, PC Nick Nolan was called to reports of Hare Coursing in the Kinlet area of Shropshire. Following a search, a vehicle was located and seized under the 2004 Hunting Act on suspicion of being used in Hare Coursing. A further investigation will now take place by specialist Wildlife Crime Officers. 

Operation Galileo is a UK wide Policing Operation to disrupt, detect and prosecute those suspected of Hare Coursing, alongside this West Mercia Police run Operation Whitebeam which is dedicated to targeting rural crime in South Shropshire.

If you believe Hare Coursing is in progress, please report on 999.

Kind Regards,

PCSO 40646 MILLER
