Poole and North Bournemouth has seen an increase in incidents involving illegally modified electric bikes, scramblers and scooters.

People can hand the weapons in to police stations in Bournemouth, Poole and Weymouth until the end of July.

The incidents took place in in Charminster Road, Nortoft Road, Lowther Road, Iddesleigh Road and St Leonards Road.

Dorset Police say there were a few people in the area on 6 July and they are keen to speak to anyone who has any information.

Police are hoping that CCTV or dashcam footage will help to identify the perpetrators of this vandalism in Branksome.

Up to 40 firefighters and 18 appliances were needed to put out last week’s blaze, which authorities say was caused deliberately.

In a combined operation, six shops were visited by police, customs and a tobacco detection dog and a quantity of items were seized.

The altercation took place at Pier Approach and police are hoping witnesses or anyone with information will come forward.

Dorset Police are urging the driver of the Mini Cooper to come forward in addition to anyone with dashcam footage.

A number of people filmed the incident on their phones and police are hoping they will come forward with the footage.
