A sad day as we say goodnight to legendary PD Narvik who served Lancs 2008-2013. His hobbies included demolishing burglars, creating Facebook scandals and trying to turn the dog van on its side. Famous for dying on duty to be revived by CPR then continue his shift. Rest easy pal.

A resident in Blackburn woke to find a male breaking into her vehicle on her driveway. Despite a swift response the male had fled prior to police arrival. PD Hulk arrived and he tracked through the estate to where he caught the offender red handed breaking into another vehicle.
