FRIDAY 13 is notorious for bad luck and in the case of a Sidmouth policeman the fateful date last month proved true.
PC Adam Johnson was called to number 13 in a Sidmouth street following a report that someone was unwell in the house.

The embarrassed policeman then broke into the right property and the person was given the treatment they needed.
