It’s good to see that the Isle of Wight now has its first Tweeting Policeman.
PC Keith Haywood is part of the Safer Neighbourhoods team for Pan and Fairlee in Newport.
He started on Twitter as @PCKeithHaywood at the tail end of June this year, when he did his first Tweet.
His Tweets give an taste of what fills the days of Bobbies on the Beat.
“Dealt with dangerous dog incident at lunch time, then had community meeting and now patrols around Medina High School as school kicks out” (read)
and last night
“7 vehicle prohibitions last night by the team……all for noisey exhausts!” (read)
Ryde Town Police join too
Keith’s pioneering efforts to connect to the population of the Island through Social Media are catching on, he was joined a couple of days ago by Ryde Town Police (@RydeTownPolice).
