Eight people have been arrested after police broke up an illegal rave involving around 120 people in a Welsh forest. Dyfed-Powys Police were called to Halfway Forest, Llandovery, on Sunday, March 19, at around 6:45am.
Following a report, two officers went to the Natural Resources Wales-owned woodland and, with the use of a drone, were able to pinpoint the location, including information that 70 vehicles were in the area.
Eight people were arrested for a variety of offences including possession with intent to supply controlled drugs and driving offences, with a related search at a property in the Gloucestershire area leading to the discovery of around 100 grammes of cocaine. Two of those arrested in connection with the incident were charged and remanded to Llanelli Magistrates Court on Monday morning.
