A dispersal under the Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014 has been granted for the Seamer Road retail park area of Scarborough following reports of ongoing anti-social behaviour.
Following reports from the retail businesses of youths causing a disturbance throughout the day, the duty Inspector for Scarborough has given authority for a 48 hour dispersal.
This means, that once a person has been directed to leave an area following their involvement in anti-social behaviour, should they be found in that area again, they may be arrested.
The dispersal can be issued for up to 48 hours within the authority period.
Scarborough police say:
"We will be using this tactic this weekend to prevent the staff from being abused or having to deal with unruly behaviour.
If you witness anti-social behaviour, please call 101 or 999 in an emergency."
