Police have issued a warbing after teenagers were seen jumping into the River Stour from a bridge on the A31 Picture: East Dorset Police
FRUSTRATED police have again warned of the dangers of jumping into a river from a bridge.
Teenagers have been moved on from the bridge on the A31 near Wimborne on several occasions but continue to risk their lives.
A spokesman for Wimborne Neighbourhood Policing Team said: "Please can I ask the local community to remind their children of the dangers of jumping off the bridge on the A31 and into the river below?
"In doing so they are endangering drivers on the A31, and also could seriously injure themselves. Many thanks."
Section 35 dispersal orders have been issued on several occasions, banning people from the area for a fixed time.
If those involved ignore the orders then they can be arrested.
