Response to an Incident at Leweston School Today

At 1.15pm today, officers from Sherborne Neighbourhood Policing Team and response officers from Dorchester attended Leweston School following a report that six youths wearing balaclavas were trespassing on the grounds and attempting to gain entry to the school through a window.

Officers quickly attended the scene and located the youths involved. Their details were recorded and parents or guardians were contacted who then attended to collect them. One youth was transported home by police.

We will continue to work closely with school staff and carry out patrols in the area to help prevent crime and anti-social behaviour. We will take positive action where offences are identified.
