Officers across Derbyshire were called into action this weekend to deal with everything from bad parking at beauty spots to recovering drugs and stolen vehicles.
These photos show police dealing with these incidents as they unfolded.
1. Driver flees and leaves drugs
The Erewash Response Unit said: “Officers on patrol in the carrier spot a wanted male in this Astra. He then fails to stop. Vehicle located and seized a short time later containing drugs. “If you want your motor back, come and speak to us about all these offences you’re racking up.” Photo: Erewash Response Unit

3. Parking issues at Curbar
The Bakewell SNT said: “More complaints from locals re bad parking. Damage also caused to the verges. “Double yellow lines mean no parking on highway or verge where they are present.” Photo: Bakewell SNT
4. Another uninsured driver
Officers from the Whitwell and Creswell Safer Neighbourhood Teams caught this driver using their vehicle whilst only holding a provisional licence, and therefore being uninsured. The vehicle was seized and the driver reported for the offences. Photo: Bolsover SNT
