A crackdown on trouble-makers in Castle Park is to take place this weekend.

Officers are planning a special operation to tackle problems, and there will be more officers on patrol.

The heightened police presence comes after a number of incidents last weekend.

Large groups gathered in the park to enjoy the hot weather, many bringing alcohol.

There were various incidents of antisocial behaviour throughout the day and into the evening, with trouble flaring at shortly after 6pm near to the boating lake, and officers were urgently called to the scene.
