Police Appeal: Disorder in Dewsbury

    West Yorkshire Police are appealing for information following a disorder in Dewsbury.

    At around 10pm last night police were called to reports of a large group of people gathered on Pilgrim Crescent in Dewsbury. 

    Officers attended and found a group of males brandishing weapons - the group soon fled.

    Three men have been arrested in connection with this incident, two aged 30 and another 33, and remain in police custody at the time. 

    Detective Inspector Mark Walker, of Kirklees CID, said: "Enquiries are on-going. We are working closely with the community and our partners and there will be increased Neighbourhood Policing Patrols in the area to reassure local residents.”

    Anyone with any information is asked to contact Kirklees CID via 101.
