| Subject: Shame-faced poLice admit 'rape cover-up': Seaside town attack WAS linked to disorder blamed on travellers as chief constable tells locals 'We got it wrong' Thu Sep 07, 2017 7:22 pm | |
| Police in Norfolk have apologised for the way they responded to a weekend of rape, assault and theft that left a seaside town on 'lawless lockdown' last month.
Over the weekend of August 18, reports of disorder, which residents blamed on a group of travellers, left pubs, shops and restaurants closed in the town of Cromer.
Norfolk police initially called the incidents 'low-level disturbance' and would not blame the 'travelling community as a whole'.
But they apologised for how the weekend handled at a town meeting this week and said they 'misjudged' the disorder.
