In episode three of Fresh Cops all our young officers are starting to make their mark.27-year-old new Sergeant Adam Ahmed is keen to impress on his young team of PCs the importance of proactive policing and teamwork. Working with one of his young officers, he pulls over a car acting suspiciously in a burglary hotspot and discovers the passenger is wearing gloves which sets off his "spidey senses". A further search of the car reveals a rucksack with torches and a knife in the car. Ultimately, it's not enough to charge the occupants with "going equipped" for burglary but Adam's always happy to take a knife off the streets.Back at the station, Adam has to pay a double "cake fine" for kerbing the police car twice and deflating its tyres. Later, he's called to an incident where a man has returned to the family home in breach of his bail conditions. When Adam enters the property he discovers the man has jumped from the window and escaped. Adam's team are quick to arrive in support. They search the area, eventually finding the man and removing him from the area.25-year-old PC Jake Bull has made no secret of his love of blue lights action but he's just discovered he's being moved from response to a role in investigations. He'll have to leave his response "family" – including buddy Calum and veteran cop Andy Dyson - behind, swapping the uniform for a suit and tie and what he considers a desk job. On his last Friday night shift he ends up in the town centre dealing with a report of an assault – and is almost headbutted himself.Back at the station, his Sergeant invites him for a chat and Jake starts to consider what he might gain from a role in investigations. We meet a new Fresh Cop, 24-year-old Jason Game, who has been in the job for 13 months. He and his colleague are called out to a report of attempted blackmail. A man has been sent photos via a dating app, the woman who sent them then claimed to be underage and threatened to tell the police. Jason and his colleague are able to reassure the man that it's a scam. Jason spends some time chatting to the man about his mental health – and shares his own personal experience of being taken into care at a young age.PC Khadeejah Mansur also shares her caring side, when she's called to a woman who has been threatened by two men threatening to smash her windows if she doesn't give them money. The case is ongoing but Khadeejah gives the woman some advice and reassurance – and is rewarded with a hug.
