HARRY TANGYE FROM NEWQUAY FACES COURT OVER HARASSMENT CHARGES

A man with a background in law enforcement, Harry Tangye, aged 56, has recently appeared before the courts in connection with allegations of harassment. Tangye, who previously served as a firearms response officer with the Devon and Cornwall Police, was brought to court on charges of harassment without violence. The incident in question is said to have taken place in Newquay, specifically involving a woman named Sofia Cann.

According to court documents, the alleged harassment occurred over a period spanning from August 25 to September 7, 2024. During this time, Tangye is accused of engaging in a pattern of conduct that was deemed to constitute harassment against Ms. Cann. The nature of the conduct has not been detailed publicly, but the charges suggest a persistent course of behavior that caused distress to the victim.

Harry Tangye appeared at Bodmin Magistrates Court on a recent Thursday to face these allegations. The court proceedings revealed that he was remanded on conditional bail, meaning he must adhere to specific conditions set by the court while awaiting his next appearance. His next scheduled court date is set for May 8 at Bodmin Magistrates Court.

It is noteworthy that Tangye retired from the police force in 2020, after serving as an armed response officer. His background in law enforcement adds a layer of complexity to the case, given his previous role in handling firearms and responding to potentially dangerous situations. The case continues to develop as more details may emerge during subsequent court hearings.
