Alcala-Alcossebre Local Police are stepping up their presence in rural areas, ready for the start of the new citrus season and the winter vegetables harvest.  This increase in the presence of officers will be complemented with new air vigilance using a drone which will be set to operate soon.  This is being dealt with in the regular rural security coordination meeting with members of the Local Agricultural Department present – presided over by the Agriculture councillor, Juan Carlos Barceló - the chief of the Local Police and the rural guardia.  As agreed, the police presence will be increased in the different rural areas or in those areas where the harvests are concentrated at different times during the day and particularly at night, so that farmers feel that their harvests are protected and the foreign friends are more controlled.

Leader Juan Carlos Barceló emphasised that “we are facing a new season of harvesting the different fruits and winter vegetables and intensifying the Police presence in the rural environment is essential during these months as we must not forget that agriculture is one of the principal drivers of our local economy”.

For his part, the Chief of the Local Police, Abel Serret said that “for the third year we are going to carry out this deterrent work which is so essential to safeguard the efforts of our farmers and this year we are going to use our ability to fly a drone over the different areas of citrus concentration, a new element which will make our task easier as it has a sensor which can detect night movements, among its other functions”.
