@@ForeverNeverwhere1 I don't recognise watching this video before. Just because he says at the start it's from 2020, doesn't mean it's a re-upload. Could just be a delayed upload by a year and a half.
@@ForeverNeverwhere1 I watch everything on this channel, and I don't remember this recovery. Like @MrDrummer25 said, the uploads are always delayed, so a recovery date that lies in the past is no indication of a reupload. It's probably an indication of them being very busy, and of video production not being their main job 😉
I live in Wycombe and it was lovely to see and know that our local police were happy to help recover stolen property. Fantastic job you do too. Love the videos
Am I the only one who feels for the old Transits that get caught up in these stories? I love an old Ford van and have used many in my work. I feel for the guys who owned these vans and had them stolen to be used in such a way. Great vid as always, this channel is an absolute goldmine. The fact you're uploading again is a real Xmas treat.
My Mk7 got nicked a few years ago. Police found it dumped a week later minus all my stuff but including 2 sets of bolt croppers and 2 IKEA bags full of booze. They put 900 miles on it in 6 days. It took weeks for the smell to go away 🥧🔑🔑
They do have gps product but not with RF locating. It means the premises your unit ends up on has to be big enough to justify the warrantless search response using GPS location alone.
Hi Richard, Another brilliant theft recovery I do love watching these videos, I have watched and liked every one, May I wish *you* , your *family* , your *staff* and the *viewers* the best Christmas . Paul from London
I have been patiently waiting for your videos and they are never a letdown! Thank you for the videos and for helping people get their stolen goods returned!
I really enjoy your videos. I find it frustrating that the thief’s seem to get away with it most of the time. I realise that the police are busy, but generally they don’t seem too bothered either. I do understand that your job is to recover the vehicles for your clients, it is good to see you being so successful..
Commander, I agree and as a former police officer, I am amazed sometimes how slow the police are to respond. Great equipment and always interesting to watch the close in, and how hidden the vehicles usually are. Hope you keep making the videos; they are great.
Between the copper and the tow truck driver they managed to crudely write off that Transit in a matter of a few minutes.. Lock Smith would have had it open in 5 mins for only £60
Great stuff Richard, good to see the real results of your system in action and the professional way you represent your company. As previously mentioned, it's always entertaining to see the thrill of the chase - keep up the good work and do keep the videos coming.
Richard's job is theft recovery so of course he knows a lot about it. The police officers can't be expected to experts in every aspect. The officer here ensured the arrest of two suspects and his work at the scene no doubt contributed to that. Richard can find the vehicles but he wouldn't have a clue how to proceed in protecting and gaining usable evidence, filing a report, getting warrants and executing arrests.
I could not stop laughing watching this video!!!🤣🤣🤣 Blokes with crowbars opening a locked vehicle!!!!😂😂😂 And the tow truck driver had a bigger bar ha-ha-ha!!!!🤣🤣🤣
This channel needs a sister channel that sets up covert surveillance to film and expose the bandits when they return. Then we start getting some justice.
@@craigturner8967 The problem is on reflection you are dealing with some nasty heartless people and if they were exposed they are so small minded they would probably go after the customer out of spite i.e. some plant hire company or small contractor who is just trying to earn a living would end up having more grief.
Why don't you order a slim jim kit, or a door opening kit, instead of destroying all the metal?? I used to drive wreckers and repo trucks and could usually get a door open in under a minute or two, if you order the kit with the air bags you can open almost anything. Interesting channel, I just added to my subscription list.
Nice to see the policeman was keen enough to try to force entry and helpful overall. I have noticed from your other videos that most of the police seem totally out of their depth - like its the first recovery of a theft they have ever attended. Sadly, I suppose it probably is.
IMO the best way is a multi pronged approach. alarms, IR beams, guard dogs, security patrols, CCTV, and maybe a container within a warehouse. You have to think about how long it will take for the thieves to get in and get access to items of value, and how long it will take for police/security/the owners to get there.. the more value, the more layers of security there should be. you can get GSM trail cameras now, they instantly send a picture to your phone when triggered. put these in spots where thieves are likely to enter from. I'd also advise to bring in some security consultants to do an assessment of your property and make some recommendations on improving security. All of this of course depends on the value of the stuff you're securing.
I was so surprised seeing a mini ex in van, I know those Van's are substantial but it would never cross my mind to transport one. I don't think like a crook.
Gret job Richard , so many companies buy expensive assets, yet only cover very little of their valuable equipment, with your products they could have got the van and trailer back too , have a nice Christmas and new year 👍👍🎅🎅🎅🎅🎅
Do the police ever stake out the vehicle and wait for the thieves to return and actually prosecute someone? Just seems a bit of a waste of all the detective work cos if they were arrested the trailer and van might have been recovered as well...
Another great video, the level of service you guys offer is outstanding. Also, can’t help but notice a slight John Thaw look a like, especially with all the detective work!
Copper: let’s try to do as little damage as possible. *bends out the whole damn door* Good job though the thieves deserve to have their transit written off anyways.
Why bother damaging the truck when you can just smash a window and open the doors from the inside? Replacing a side window is cheap and easy. If the crims own the truck who cares but theres a chance it was a rental truck or a borrowed truck.
@@tubester4567 what windows? There were none in the load bay. Breaking a cab window will only give you access to the front bit. There is a metal bulkhead behind the seats.
You are the working mans detective, you single handily with the odd call of the wife make every police force you deal with 👀 look highly grossly unprofessional pointlessly useless , please upload as many as you can sir it’s better than watching Netflix to me , your a true professional at your trade I love your channel should be on tv ,all the best for the new year sir

Better than any reality cop show on the telly, no producer cutting in dama.

Or that they’d have to wait until all legal avenues have concluded before posting a video?
i'm so conflicted, on one hand i love these recovery videos, and on the other hand that means more people had their stuff taken
Don't be, these videos are entertaining with a feelgood factor - boy do we need that now lol
Can't believe the copper was prying on the door with a crow bar! Break the side window and use the central locking. Glass is cheaper than a door.
Yeagh... that wasn't a very well executed entry plan. Jeez.... absolutely mullered it. 😄
I guess it's what they have been taught during training
Thinks one would need the key or fob to operate the the central locking, don't apply for a job with the police force☺
Why would they be concerned about damage cost on the criminals van ?
It'll get crushed anyway .
3 videos in a month! What a Christmas treat, welcome back pal. Love seeing these notifications pop up!
Happy Christmas 🎄
Thank you for letting me see this video.
I live in Wycombe and it was lovely to see and know that our local police were happy to help recover stolen property.

Thanks , used to work in the Ford Transit Factory in Southampton "Home of the Transit" back in the day 👍👍
I had an old Transit just like this one. It was falling to bits and making all sorts of bad noises but it never ever let me down.
If you haven't found it already - check out Top Gear's history of the Transit. th-cam.com/video/eR0-m2hgXEk/w-d-xo.html

Honestly so good to have these videos back! Please don't ever leave us again 😂
Those CAT Next Generation mini excavators are fantastic pieces of kit!
Nice to see this one recovered safely for return to its appreciative owner!
Great to see items returned. Wondered if breaking the window would be a better option for entry.
Awesome, pity they don' t have this in New Zealand !
they probably do - just dont make videos on it. They have in the past had international operations.
Agreed
They do have gps product but not with RF locating. It means the premises your unit ends up on has to be big enough to justify the warrantless search response using GPS location alone.
New Zealand is a lot safer place. So I guess it's not really needed

Thank the lord one of the best channels on here 🍀🇬🇧👍🏼
Totally amazed that the police don't have someone with basic locksmithing skills. It's really very simple to pick most locks with the right tools.
they do have the big red key...
Exactly! most road service personnel could open this within a minute without damage
He did have basic lockpicking skills. That's the issue.
Brute force always wins. Just takes time

Painful watching the Copper trying to get into the van, a pro would have it open in 20 secs 🤦🏼♂️
An episode of top gear the guy got into the transit in a few seconds
to be fair, I doubt they carry screwdrivers

Kind of feel bad for the poor transit - all those dents on the door and the body work which can’t be replaced! Damn
Merry Christmas 👊🏻😎
You should have a dog! Company on your trips, way less suspicious when casing out the properties and it can be protection for you too!
Dog walkers are the first line of defense.
Good to see officers using the ‘Ways and Means Act’ to good effect
easier way to get in back of crow bar straight through and smash window then use central locking from door handles
