In November 2015, I visited the city of Norwich, Norfolk, in the United Kingdom and saw a few PCSOs (Police Community Support Officers) on patrol. I decided to follow them and was then stopped by them, at which point I began filming.
Police Community Support Officer Gould asked for my name, which I gave. I was then asked for my date of birth, but I refused to provide that. Then I was told that I had to provide it and that failing to do so would result in me being detained until a police officer arrived.
I replied that I still wouldn’t be giving it to them and PCSO Morgan then proceeded to call the Norfolk Constabulary Contact and Control Room (CCR) and request that a police officer attend her location. She was told that no officers were available, at which time PCSOs Morgan and Gould walked back to their police station.
