PSNI issue formal warnings to young people trespassing on old 'Ballymoney Tech' site

Police in Ballymoney have spoken out again about young people trespassing onto the site of the old ‘Tech’ building in the town.

PSNI Causeway Coast and Glens posted on Facebook on July 30, saying that officers from Ballymoney & Moyle Neighbourhood Policing Team (NPT) had to “once again provide formal warnings to young persons illegally trespassing within the old Ballymoney Tech”.

The property, most recently the Ballymoney campus of the Northern Regional College on the Coleraine Road, has been boarded up for some time now.

The PSNI said: “This property has been clearly made secure with fencing and boarding up of windows. If you choose to enter said property you will be trespassing and potentially committing the offence of Burglary.

"Police also, whilst dealing with these young persons, seized an electric scooter which was being used on the public roads and footpaths. We again want to remind all persons that electric scooters are ILLEGAL unless used on private property.”
