14th April 2021Majority safely enjoy relaxed Covid restrictions on first day of reopening
Humberside Police update:
Yesterday saw the lifting of many Government restrictions allowing people to do some of the things that have not been possible for several months.
Speaking after the first evening of policing under these new relaxed restrictions, Assistant Chief Constable (ACC) Darren Downs said, “For many people, yesterday’s lifting of restrictions meant a socially distanced queue at the barbers or hairdressers, for others it was the long-awaited ability to meet with family and friends in a social setting, be it the local outdoor facilities of a restaurant, café or pub.
“We are pleased that the majority of the region enjoyed their first evening of socialising in local establishments. We did see some incidents reported but they had no direct connection to the lockdown restrictions easing and involved disputes between families and friends.
“I would take this opportunity to remind people that we still remain in a situation where we need be responsible for our actions, and make sure we observe social distancing guidance that is in place for the safety and wellbeing of everyone.
“People should remain vigilant and do everything they can to continue to prevent the spread of the virus. Whilst restrictions have eased, adhering to guidelines to prevent the virus spreading must remain a top priority.”
