Current priorities
Operation Galileo
Operation Galileo is about the wildlife crime committed through Hare coursing where people usually from outside the area come into the Humberside Police area and bring dogs usually of the greyhound, Whippet and Suliki type breeds to chase and catch Hares on farmland. These people do not have permission to be on the land and they usually bring 4X4 type vehicles and drive over the land causing potential damage to crops. The use of dogs to capture and kill wildlife is an offence. Please if you see any coursing going on ring the Police on 101 if it is safe to do so.

Speeding, Weight restrictions as well as through road congestion continues to be an issue in the rural areas.
