DUTCH police sergeant Leen Dekker has had a taste of life in an English force.
Sgt Dekker, who works in Rotterdam, was among more than 50 people to attend an International Police Association (IPA) conference at the Kings Head Hotel, Darlington, on Saturday. He was later given a tour of Darlington police station and went out on the beat with local officers. Sgt Dekker, above left, is pictured talking to Tony Kane, chairman of the northern regional IPA and a chief superintendent with Greater Manchester Police.
