A SKATEPARK in North Dorset was left 'unusable' due to 'large amounts of broken glass'.

Police officers on patrol came across the anti-social behaviour at Sherborne Skate Park, off Blackberry Lane, on Saturday, April 3.

They warned that broken glass was discovered on the ramps and surrounding grass areas and urged residents to be careful if they visit the park.

A spokesman for Sherborne Police said: "Unfortunately it is currently unusable due to large amounts of broken glass on the ramps and the surrounding grass areas.

"If you were hoping to use the play area, please be careful as there may be broken glass there as well.

"The council have been informed and will be organising someone to clear this."
