Wiltshire Police require the public's help following two pieces of ‘disorder’ in Swindon last week.

They both happened on Tuesday, February 23, with the first in Buckhurst Fields between 18:00 and 19:00.

The second happened about an hour later Torrington Court at around 20:00

On both occasions it involved a group of teenagers wearing face masks and hoods, who were shouting threats and abuse but nobody was injured.

Three males, aged 15, 16 and 18, were arrested on suspicion of a number of offences, including affray and weapons offences.

They have all been released on conditional bail while our enquiries continue.

PC Jon Pearce, from Swindon Community Policing Team, said:

“We know that these two incidents would have been witnessed by a number of people and, if you know something and haven’t already spoken to the police then we would urge you to come forward.

“Also, if you have private CCTV, video doorbell or dash cam footage which you think could help, then please give us a call.”
