Police on the nose at Mornington
RAW sewage escaping into the foyer forced Mornington Police Station to close last week. Passers-by said toilet paper and excrement were flowing out from under the doors and the odour from unsanitary water on the footpath was “very strong”, 4.30pm, Monday 3 June. Workers in the side street near the old cells pumped out blocked pipes and even a Frankston SES crew turned up to lend a hand. Officer-in-charge Senior Sergeant Paul Edwards said the problem was caused by heavy rain and a blocked pipe – for the second time in a decade. He said sewage flowing downhill in pipes under Main Street backed up at the station, its lowest point, and overflowed. “About five centimetres of contaminated water flowed past the sergeant’s office and was pumped out by South East Water,” he said. “We were able to move things out of the way

Safety Beach fire POLICE are treating as suspicious a fire which destroyed a two-storey house at Safety Beach, early Monday 3 June. The Balmoral Avenue house, below, was engulfed by fire when CFA crews from Dromana, Rosebud and Mt Martha arrived, 1.15am. Minor fire damage was caused to neighbouring houses. The house was supposedly unoccupied leading police to suspect that squatters may have been responsible.
TRAIN commuters misusing pedestrian crossings, and cyclists riding on pedestrian walkways at level crossings, face fines during a joint two-week Victoria Police and Public Transport Victoria campaign targeting pedestrians engaging in unsafe behaviour at level crossings. Statistics show more than 200 near misses a year occur when train drivers are forced to brake unexpectedly or take other actions to avoid trespassers on the lines. Police have urged members of the public to

THE driver of a Ford ute, pictured, involved in an incident on High Street, Hastings, 6.30pm, Monday 20 May, is being sought by police. It is believed the driver sideswiped a parked car and then sped off along King Street. The silver ute with aluminium tray was loaded with tradie tools and had signs on the left side of the tray. Anyone knowing the vehicle is urged to call Senior Constable Kennedy at Hastings police station 5970 7800 or Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000.

and then the cleaners came in and bio-cleaned the office, ripping up the carpet tiles and chemically cleaning the floors to kill any germs.” Senior Sergeant Edwards said the five police on duty were expecting to be back in their offices by [last] Friday, with South East Water and plumbers “working on a permanent solution”.

manded in custody to appear at the same court at a later date. The man, 31, was arrested at a Spring Street house along with two others: a woman, 25, and a man, 30, who were charged and bailed in relation to outstanding warrants unrelated to the car yard thefts. Detective Senior Constable Matthew Caddy, of Somerville CIU, said one of the five cars stolen from West Bay Car Sales – and parked around the corner from the yard – had been recovered. So, too, was a CCTV unit allegedly teken from the office, and keys from the key safe. Detective Caddy said he and Detective Senior Constable Matthew Goodwin were confident of further arrests in the case in which more than $100,000 in vehicles, CCTV, phones and computer equipment were stolen on a wet and cold night. They will allege up to four offenders cut through wire mesh fencing before stealing two Mitsubishi Triton dual-cab utes, Toyota Hi-Lux, Ford Ranger and a Nissan Dualis SUV. Anyone with any information should contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or crimestoppersvic.com.au
