Original release:
We have arrested three youths following reports of a dwelling burglary in Boston yesterday.
Just before 4.30pm, officers received reports of a dwelling burglary at an address on Hartley Street where a number of people were seen leaving the scene. Upon attendance, officers discovered a broken window at the property.
Following CCTV enquiries, officers identified three suspects and later tracked and pursued a dark blue Suzuki Vitara through John Adams Way in Boston.
Traffic officers successfully brought the vehicle to a stop and arrested three youths – one of them a 16-year-old female and two male youths aged 16 and 17 – on suspicion of burglary. They are currently in police custody.
The 16-year-old male youth was further arrested on suspicion of traffic offences, including dangerous driving, failing to stop, driving without a licence and insurance. Enquiries are still ongoing.
During the course of our enquiries, officers from the Drone Unit were also deployed to locate the offenders in connection with the burglary.
Two men, aged 21 and 22, suspected of drug dealing on London Road, Boston were identified on the drone and subsequently arrested for possession with intent to supply.
The 22-year-old has been released under investigation and the 21-year-old remains in police custody. Enquiries are ongoing.
Lee St Quinton, Detective Chief Inspector for East Lindsey, said: “Thanks to the hard work of our Response Officers as well as officers from specialist departments like the Drone Unit and Roads Policing, I’m pleased that we were
able to make swift arrests.
“I’d like to reassure the community that we do take these kinds of reports seriously and that we’ll take robust action to deal with offenders who commit such crimes that affect their local communities.”

In the world of art, where creativity knows no bounds, chainsaw wood sculpting stands out as a thrilling blend of danger and beauty. Imagine wielding a roaring chainsaw, not to fell trees, but to carve them into stunning works of art. This is not your average hobby; it’s an adrenaline-fueled artistic adventure that dates back to the 1950s.
Chainsaw sculpting transforms ordinary wood into extraordinary masterpieces, pushing the limits of what’s possible with a tool more commonly associated with lumberjacking. But this is no rough-and-tumble trade; it’s a craft requiring precision, skill, and a steady hand, where the risk only heightens the allure.
Local businesses often face a range of challenges, yet some family-owned firms in LIncolnshire have not only survived, but thrived for over a century.
These include the Lincoln-based Witham Group, a major lubricant manufacturer and paint supplier in the UK, and White & Sentance, a notable piano business in Sleaford. We spoke to both firms about the secret to longevity.
