“What I want to do is to reassure the communities of West Yorkshire that these communications are being taken extremely seriously. We understand that they may have caused concern and upset to people, especially the more members of society.
“We are working with the communities we serve to reassure residents that, as always, everything possible is being done to ensure their safety and to catch the person or persons responsible for this.
“Public safety remains our priority and I would urge our communities to be vigilant but not frightened.
“We are stronger when we stand together as one and will not be divided. #WeStandTogether.”
