‘Consequently, with concerns for the male's welfare, a PPN (Public Protection Notice) will now be submitted to get him the support he needs to live better within his own home.
‘As much as we have to make arrests, we also have a duty of care for the people with whom we come into contact, whether that be victims or offenders.
‘The PPN will be forwarded to supporting agencies who can assist and improve the male's quality of life.’
