Five men enjoying a barbecue in the sun had their fun cut short yesterday by police at Dovestone Reservoir. They are now facing fines worth up to £2,500 for what was deemed as antisocial behaviour by the authorities.
All of the group were caught out by fire services and police for Saddleworth and Lees. Taking a barbecue onto the moors ‘poses a huge risk of fire’, according to Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service.
Greater Manchester Police took to social media urging other not to follow suit.
