Richard was delighted to hear of the outstanding exploits of the Beds Rural Crime Action Team - RCAT recently.

Speaking after the news, Richard Fuller MP said:

In a single weekend, RCAT stopped incidents of hare coursing and pheasant catapulting as well as seizing the 2 vehicles being used in the pursuit of these crimes. They also investigated the fly-tipping of a dead dog and interrupted the scoping out of an equestrian yard, no doubt for highly nefarious purposes!

With stretched resources and covering a significant geographical area the Beds Rural Crime Action Team - RCAT do a great job of apprehending criminals and reassuring the rural communities they serve. I congratulate them on their successes and thank them for their tremendous efforts.
