Damage to the bandstand and illegal use of quad bikes were among the issues reported to police
Drones could be used to capture disorder and vandalism in Blackpool’s Stanley Park after the beauty spot became a target for anti-social behaviour this summer.
Nigel Patterson, chairman of the Friends of Stanley Park, said: “There have been levels of anti social behaviour in the park this summer and it did result in dispersal orders being issued. Since then the level of activity has reduced, but it could just be because the children have gone back to school.“We have met with the council and police, and various avenues are now open to us and we are exploring how to use them.
“They can pick up very good images in close up of people and are recording at all times.” Images of vandals sawing off railings from the bandstand was picked up by the CCTV and handed to the police.
