Thanks to Julia over at Ambush Predator for this one.
A woman has told how she was left “stunned” when her boss was contacted by vice squad officers after her car was seen in Bradford’s red light area.
Anne-Marie Carroll, 45, who is a member of the Bradford Catholic Players, was on her way to the group’s rehearsal rooms in Rebecca Street, driving alone in a company car, which was noted by officers investigating kerb crawling.
Of course she got a grovelling letter of apology from the Police.
Err No.
Supt Williams said: “We make no apology for the robust way in that we tackle the issue of kerb crawling in Bradford.
“This particular tactic to target the men who solicit women has been used for a number of years in the city and with notable success.
“The letters are sent out following detailed observations of a vehicle’s movements and the registered owner is contacted whether it is an individual or a business.
Another case of presumed guilty until you prove you’re innocent.
