Thames Valley Police have issued a further dispersal order for Bonfire Night weekend in Flackwell Heath following trouble on Halloween.
A second Section 35 Dispersal Order, which gives officers the power to exclude people from the area for up to 48 hours, came into effect yesterday (November 4) at 4pm and will finish tomorrow (November 6) at the same time.
This comes after officers were called to Straight Bit in the village at around 7.05pm on Monday (October 31) to a report of an assault and anti-social behaviour.
A woman in her thirties is said to have been pushed by "a large group of youths" whilst others witnessed fireworks being set off at the recreation ground and along the road.
Officers issued the first Section 35 Dispersal Order on the night following the trouble.
A Thames Valley Police social media post said: "A further Section 35 Dispersal Order has been authorised this weekend for Flackwell Heath to help those out celebrating this evening.
"Officers will be patrolling the area."
