Officers from Derbyshire Police’s Shirebrook neighbourhood team were joined by officers from the force’s suspect management and reduction team in carrying out patrols in the area.
A neighbourhood team spokesman said, following the operation on the evening of Saturday, December 3: “It resulted in issuing two community protection warnings for anti-social behaviour – this carries conditions that will need to be adhered to in order to prevent reoccurring behaviour.

“Previous weeks have seen us issue a number of fixed penalty notices for urinating in a public place – that's one expensive wee.
“Anti-social behaviour comes at a detrimental effect to not only the community, but to individuals. That’s why we aim to tackle it.”
