Beefa Bobbies British Police for San Antonio. British police officers will patrol the streets of the West End next summer if the initiative raised by the Sant Antoni Town Hall and the Government Delegation in Balears is successful. They intend to extend the police cooperation program unveiled this year in various locations in the Balears to include the British police and the town of Sant Antoni. As explained by the mayor of Sant Antoni, Pepita Gutierrez, and the Government Delegation security ad-
viser, Jesús Valdés, a dozen police officers from Germany, Italy and France have patrolled alongside the local police during the past season in tourist areas of Mallorca. The experience, which was described as very successful by Valdés has led the government delegation to look for similar agreements with the British authorities for 2015, for British police officers to work in Ibiza and “and especially to Sant Antoni”. "These policemen know the language and idiosyncrasies of their compatriots," Valdés stated.
