A man has been arrested and charged in connection with encouraging offences during the protests in Weymouth.

Over recent days, officers have been reviewing all available footage following the reported disorder on The Esplanade on Sunday 4 August 2024.

As a result of this work, a 31-year-old man from Portland was arrested. He was subsequently charged with encouraging or assisting in the commission of offences of murder believing one or more will be committed and appeared at Poole Magistrates’ Court on Saturday 17 August 2024. He is next due to appear at Bournemouth Crown Court on Thursday 12 September 2024.

The offence for which he is charged falls under the Serious Crime Act 2007.

Assistant Chief Constable Steve Lyne, of Dorset Police, said: “This latest arrest demonstrates our commitment to investigate anyone who is suspected of trying to encourage others to cause violence and harm in our communities.

“We will not tolerate any reported hate in Dorset and will continue to work with our partner agencies and take action against anyone who was believed to be involved in or inciting criminal activity during the recent protests.”
