We have arrested four men following a fight outside a pub.

Our officers were called to the Plainsman, in Woodthorpe Drive, Mapperley, Nottingham, at 6.25pm on Tuesday (23 June).

It was reported one man was armed with a knife.

A man was taken to hospital with facial injuries, which are not currently believed to be life-altering or life-threatening in nature.

Four men have been arrested on suspicion of affray and a knife has been seized.

One of the suspects has been further detained on suspicion of possession of a knife in a public place.

Detective Inspector Ed Cook, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: "There was a significant police response to this altercation, but I'd like to reassure people it was an isolated incident and quickly contained by officers.

"Four suspects are in custody, but we'd still like to hear from anyone who was in the pub, or the area around it, and has any relevant information to share with us."

Anyone who can assist with information, or dashcam, mobile phone, CCTV or doorbell footage, should call 101, quoting incident 663 of 23 June 2026.

At first, it looked like a burglary case. 🔎

Reports of a suspicious man lurking around student homes had detectives on high alert, but what they uncovered was far more sinister.

He was targeting female students, peering through windows and secretly filming them, amassing a collection of intrusive photos and videos.

As the scale of his behaviour became clear, officers used covert tactics to identify and stop Stanislaw Filipiak before his offending could escalate further.

Big match tonight? Make your game plan count before the first whistle.

🥅 You’ve sorted where you are watching the match, who with and already predicted what the score might be.

But what’s your plan for getting home?

❌ Neither the warm weather or the World Cup are ever an excuse to drink-and-drive.

That's the message from Newark and Sherwood's inspector after three suspects were arrested in Bilsthorpe over the last weekend, a trend often seen by police at this time of the year.

🍻 If you’re drinking, then driving shouldn’t even be an option. Make the call early, sort your lift, and stick to it.

The best nights end with everyone getting home safely. Don’t drink and drive.

Know someone who’s had too much to drink and is about to drive? Speak up. And if they won’t listen, call us:

📞 101 (or 999 in an emergency)

Some cross-border police work ensured a suspect in a Nottingham assault over the weekend was arrested.

We were originally called to Top Valley following reports of a fight between two men, around 8pm on Saturday (20 June).

One of the men sustained a nasty facial injury during the altercation, which reportedly happened outside an address in Stacey Avenue.

The other man had left by the time our officers arrived, so information relating to him was circulated force-wide and shared with neighbouring police forces to try and track him down.

This tactic resulted in Leicestershire officers pulling over a car containing the individual in Leicester city centre, around 2pm on Sunday (21 June).

The 38-year-old man was subsequently arrested on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm with intent.

Detective Sergeant Aisha Grainger said: "This response represented a great example of neighbouring police forces working in tandem for a positive result.

"In this case, our colleagues in Leicestershire were able to utilise information we'd gathered to stop a car in their force area and arrest a suspect in an assault.

"An investigation is still ongoing into this incident, which left a man with a nasty facial injury, so we’d ask anyone who has any information about what happened to share this with us, if they haven't done so already."

Information can be reported directly to us by calling 101, quoting incident 700 of 20 June 2026, while Crimestoppers can be reached anonymously on 0800 555 111.

A 17-year-old boy from Nottinghamshire has been jailed after he pleaded guilty to seven counts of terrorism offences.

The boy, who cannot be named for legal reasons, previously admitted disseminating terrorist publications and possessing information useful to a terrorist.

At court on Friday 19 June, he was jailed for two years, with an additional year on extended licence.

The result comes after an investigation by officers from Counter Terrorism Policing East Midlands (CTPEM).

The boy was arrested in September 2023 after posts were seen on one of his social media accounts promoting the Islamic State.

His phone was seized and officers discovered further content had been shared on messages and in group chats.

The boy admitted the offences by accepting a Youth Conditional Caution (YCC) - an order which puts restrictions on a young person, often limiting their internet access, bank accounts and more.

It also orders them to regularly check in with the CTPEM Nominal Management Team (NMT), so they can ensure restrictions are being followed.

A few months later, the team found that the boy had breached his conditions by accessing the internet and using social media accounts that he had not declared.

He had also deleted his online activity, which was again contrary to his conditions.

The breach was referred to the Crown Prosecution Service for review, and they authorised for the boy to be formally charged with five counts of dissemination of a terrorist publication (contrary to section 2 of the Terrorism Act 2006), and two counts of possessing information useful to terrorism (contrary to section 58 of the Terrorism Act 2000).

He appeared at Westminster Magistrates' Court in February 2026, where he pleaded guilty to all seven counts.

Detective Inspector Stephen Shaw, from CTPEM and who was the Senior Investigating Officer in the Case, said: “The boy disregarded original restrictions placed on him by the court, and has now been handed a more severe punishment.

“I hope this helps him see the seriousness of his actions and stops him from heading down the wrong path in the future.

“We are committed to keeping the people of Nottinghamshire safe from the threat of terrorism.

"If you see something that doesn’t feel right, remember to remain vigilant and report suspicious activity to help prevent terrorism and save lives".

This is the moment a man burrowed a hole through a roof to evade us after subjecting Bassetlaw residents to a series of terrifying ordeals.

James Rylance forced his way through the loft ceiling of a Bircotes house and clambered out onto the roof before spending the next four hours throwing tiles at our officers below.

He was already by that stage wanted for three separate home invasions where he armed himself with weapons, as well as a street robbery where he threatened to throw acid at another man.

Each offence took place in Bassetlaw over the space of just under a month, with the crimewave coming to an end on 3 July last year when we arrested him after finally climbing down from his rooftop vantage point.

Rylance, of Arundel Walk, Bircotes, would go on to be charged with multiple counts of aggravated burglary, robbery, attempted robbery, blackmail and criminal damage.

Despite the comprehensive evidence against him, he denied all the charges, which prompted a trial at Nottingham Crown Court that concluded on Thursday (18 June).

When a jury convicted him of each offence, Rylance – who refused to attend the courtroom – was sentenced the following day (19 June) to 13 years behind bars.

A 10-year restraining order was also imposed, banning him from contacting any of his victims in any way.

Detective Constable Jack Reasbeck said: "James Rylance's behaviour between 6 June and 3 July last year was utterly disgraceful and put the people he targeted through a nightmare ordeal.

"Taking the three aggravated burglaries first up, his actions – motivated purely for financial gain – left his victims terrified, with his decision to carry weapons and threaten people with them only heightening those fears further.

"The same could be said for the vulnerable man he robbed weeks earlier, with that victim forced to hand over everything he had, while being threatened with what he was led to believe was a bottle of acid.

"As the judge rightly said during his closing remarks, Rylance knew what he was doing was wrong but he just didn't care, while he had no remorse whatsoever, as he showed by his not guilty pleas and his failure to appear in court.

"Even after being caught by police, he continued to cause distress to the local community by clambering onto a rooftop and spending the next few hours hurling missiles at those below, causing all sorts of damage in the process.

"Our hope is that the lengthy prison sentence Rylance has now received will provide some respite to those he harmed with his offending."
