 Retired social worker, 73, is quizzed in her own home by hate-crime police for taking a photo of a STICKER that said: 'Keep males out of women-only spaces'

  • The incident happened in Happy Valley setting Hebden Bridge in West Yorkshire 
  • Officers told the pensioner she had been identified from CCTV footage

  • The sticker had been placed on to a LGBT+ pride poster which had the slogan Stand By Your Trans. Officers told the 73-year-old retired social worker that she had been identified from CCTV footage.

    The woman told The Mail on Sunday she was 'in a state of shock' when officers arrived at her door. The incident happened in Hebden Bridge in West Yorkshire – the setting for BBC crime drama Happy Valley about no-nonsense policewoman Catherine Cawood. It comes after fury over police forces failing to send officers to investigate burglaries and other serious crimes.
