| Appeal for witnesses launched following assault above Derby shop

We are appealing for witnesses to come forward after a man was assaulted above a shop in Derby.

The incident happened in a room above the Mac-Moore African and Caribbean Food Store in Normanton Road at about 10pm on Friday 20 March.

The victim was playing a game of chess with a group of three or four men in an upstairs room when the suspect, a man, walked in.

A dispute arose in relation to the game and the suspect punched the victim three times before leaving the room.

The victim, a 47-year-old man, needed hospital treatment for an injured eye.

Officers have arrested a 51-year-old man on suspicion of Section 18 GBH with intent.

He has since been released on conditional bail.

Officers investigating the incident have made a number of enquiries, including reviewing CCTV, and we are now appealing for the public’s help.

There were a number of witnesses at the premises at the time who we have not yet spoken to.

We would like these potential witnesses to please come forward as they may be able to assist with our enquiries.

Witnesses and anyone with information about the incident can contact us using one of the methods below and please quote reference number 26*165609.

A small number of residents who were evacuated have sought or been provided with alternative accommodation.

Officers will remain at the scene whilst enquiries continue.

closure | We have closed two roads in Derby whilst emergency services deal with a house fire.

Baseball Drive and Vulcan Street were closed shortly after 9am this morning (Thursday 28 May).

All members of the public who were inside the property are now out and safe.

A number of properties have been evacuated in the area as a precautionary measure.

Motorists and pedestrians are advised to avoid the area whilst we deal with the incident.

An investigation into the cause will be undertaken in due course but early indications are that there are no suspicious circumstances.

We would like to make local residents aware of recent incidents of burglary during the day. It’s easy to forget that thieves can quickly target an open window or door, and be in and out of your property before you realise.

With the hot weather it's natural to open up windows and doors to let out some of the warm air, unfortunately with that it presents an easy opportunity for thieves. This week we have had several confirmed burglaries where the offender(s) has gained access via an open window or door and taken items within.

Make sure you deny the thieves any easy opportunities:

🏡 If you’re out in the back garden, close any windows at the front of the house and lock the front door, as you may not hear someone coming through an open window or door at the front.
🔑 Keep your valuables safe and hidden, and store keys in a safe place out of sight.
🚪 If you leave the house for any reason, make sure all doors and windows are closed and locked properly.
🌻 Keep your garden secure and fit a garden gate lock to stop thieves snooping around unseen at the back of your house.
🪜 Keep tools and ladders locked away. Make sure your shed is secure.
🌲 Simple landscaping like a gravel path or thorny shrubs can also act as a deterrent.
🚗 And don’t forget to secure your car in warm weather – don’t leave windows open, doors unlocked, or have valuables on display.

Many thanks,
Sam 12829

We are appealing for witnesses to come forward following a robbery in Derby.

He then stole a quantity of cash from her before leaving the area.

Officers were called to the scene and arrested a 30-year-old man in connection with the incident. He remains in police custody.

The 20-year-old woman sustained minor injuries.

The suspect is described as a man aged between 25 and 30, about 6ft 4ins tall, with a slim but toned build and with a trimmed beard.

Officers believe there was a number of potential witnesses in the area at the time and we are urging these people to please come forward.
