BEACH PATROL: Random visits to trap alleged poisoner Photo credit: Campello town hall

CAMPELLO’s Policia Local now patrol the dogs-allowed beach at the mouth of the Rio Seco.
Uniformed and plainclothes officers carry out random daily inspections, taking care not to follow a set routine after receiving reports maintaining that a person, or persons, are leaving poison-laced bait there.
The town hall’s Public Safety councillor Rafa Galvañ announced earlier that his department has mounted a special operation to “investigate, detect and fine antisocial behaviour towards pets.”
This followed an official complaint from a local woman who claimed that her dog died at the end of June after eating “something toxic or poisonous” on the beach.
