Three people from London fined for Covid breach after travelling to North Wales to take drone footage

Three people from London have been handed a fixed penalty notice after travelling to North Wales to try and take drone footage.

The trio were fined by North Wales Police for breaching the alert level 4 Covid regulations currently in place, which require people to stay at home, except for very limited purposes.

Officers also dealt with sledders who came over the border from England and some locals having a party.

The rules have been in place since December and will remain in Wales for at least the next three weeks, following a review of the measures.
