Warning: Some readers might find the images in this article distressing. 

North Yorkshire Police has shared several pictures showing injuries sustained by two officers who responded to a call for help.

One of the officers suffered a sprain, and the other needed x-rays for a possible fracture. 

North Yorkshire Police said that the officers responded to reports of violence in Boroughbridge when the incident occurred.

A man in his 30s was arrested at the scene for a number of different offences.  

Since the beginning of 2022, over 168 emergency services workers have been assaulted in North Yorkshire alone. 

Some of those assaulted have suffered ‘very serious’ injuries, resulting in extended hospital stays, time off work, and psychological trauma.

In many instances, the emergency workers who have been assaulted on duty have been unable to carry out routine day-to-day tasks with their families due to physical and psychological injuries. 

A spokesperson for North Yorkshire Police said:

‘We’re here to keep you safe. But being assaulted is never “just part of the job”.

‘We have a support programme for officers and staff who are assaulted at work, and we prosecute offenders. Courts often give prison sentences.

‘We shouldn’t have to spell this out, but we do – it is never acceptable to assault our colleagues.’

Before you go...

WE NEED YOUR HELP. As former emergency services & armed forces personnel, we pride ourselves on bringing you important, fast-moving and breaking news stories & videos which are free from the negative 'anti' bias which is often directed at the emergency services & NHS by some sections of the mainstream media.

One of the reasons we started 'Emergency Services News' back in 2018 was because we became tired of reading badly informed stories about the emergency services.

We want to be the unheard voice of the remarkable men and women who serve in the emergency services, NHS and armed forces. And with around 500k page views each month, we are getting there!

As income from ads, the mainstay source of income for most publishers, continues to decline; we need the help of you, our readers.

You can support emergency services news from as little as £1. It only takes a minute. Every contribution, however big or small, is vital for our future.

Please help us to continue to highlight the life-saving work of the emergency services, NHS and armed forces by becoming a supporter.
