There was one where two PCSOs were first at the scene of a drowning. The Daily Mail made out as though they watched the person drown and didn't try to help due to health and safety. (A chance to have a go at the Police and H&S in one story? The DM must have thought it was Christmas!)
In reality the person was already under water and out of site on arrival of the PCSOs and as there was no reliable information where he was last seen they didn't go in, quite rightly IMO.
