‘Partnership approach is key to halting interface trouble’
Temporary Chief Inspector Derek McCamley.
NEWTOWNABBEY’S new PSNI Area Commander, Temporary Chief Inspector Derek McCamley, has vowed to tackle the scourge of sectarian violence which has plagued areas across the borough.

“I will be looking at patrolling patterns to make sure that interface areas have police cover, but not at the expense of the rest of the Newtownabbey policing area,” he said.
