I am sure M'lud Nuglet would say that this is "criminal damage" in Nugentworld. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...-hot-cars.html Damaging a vehicle, where the damage is not accidental or consented to, is a criminal offence in almost all circumstances. But there is a defence against a statutory criminal damage charge, to the effect that causing the damage is not a crime if it is necessary, or at least, in the circumstances, reasonably believed to be necessary, in order to prevent other loss or damage to something in immediate need of protection. https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1971/48/section/5 This and analogous provisions are relied upon by the forces of law and order the world over when gaining access to premises and vehicles in an emergency. Saving the life of an animal (especially a legally-defined species such as a dog) in hot weather would easily qualify for that defence in the UK. Note that a police officer utilising this power (it isn't limited to police officers, BTW) is acting judiciously, cautiously and impartially. He isn't acting out of pique. |
