CCTV images of Hoax caller!
CCTV images
have been issued to the media by Merseyside Police of a man they
would like to speak to in connection with a hoax call to Merseyside
Fire and Rescue.
Just before 2:00am on Saturday, 5 January 2008, the emergency
services received a call claiming a building was on fire on
Westfield Street in town centre.
Two fire engines attended and the
call was subsequently found to be a hoax. This put lives at
risk and wasted emergency services time and resources.
The CCTV shows a man, who police believe, will be able to help them
with their inquiries, in relation to the incident, and they are
urging him to come forward and contact the police.
Anyone who witnessed the incident or has information is asked to
contact Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 or the Neighbourhood Action
Team on 0151 777 6050.
