Man charged and recalled to prison after alcohol theft in Skegness
Main article content
We have some more timely anti-social behaviour (ASB) news from our Skegness Neighbourhood Policing Team. On Tuesday, 19 November eagle-eyed Sergeant Geoff Harrison and Community Beat Manager PC Billy Spence spotted 39-year-old Shane Tune, after reports of alcohol theft by a man matching Tune’s description from Morrisons Supermarket on Wainfleet Road, Skegness.
Within 12 minutes of the call being received by our Force Control Room, Tune was arrested for theft of alcohol products to the value of £350.57. All alcohol was recovered.
Insp Jacky Evans said, “This is an excellent example of anti-social behaviour being reported via the appropriate channels. This not only enables officers to respond as quickly as operationally possibly, but it also helps to build a more robust ASB-intelligence picture around hotspot areas, enabling us to focus our resources in key areas at key times to be the most effective we can be with the resources we have.
“We will continue to act consistently and robustly to tackle these instances of ASB, building a greater sense of safety and security, making our neighbourhoods a pleasure to enjoy.”
Shane Tune, 39, of South Parade Skegness, was charged and remanded to appear at Lincoln Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday 20 November where he was handed an £80 fine and was subsequently recalled to prison for breach of his conditional licence, so will be off the streets for some time.
This result demonstrates the value of reporting an often-considered minor act of ASB which can have a hugely positive impact on the wider community.
