A TEENAGER has been arrested and charged in connection with alleged dangerous driving in the Irvine Beach Park area.

The 18-year-old will also face other road traffic offences amid a police crackdown at the popular beauty spot.

Local officers say they have been attending the area more frequently amid an increase in reports of anti-social behaviour.

Sergeant Will Thomson, of Irvine's locality police team, said the force will continue to work hard to address such concerns.

He said: “We will be continuing to operate in the area in response to numerous complaints.

"We continue to work alongside key partners to prevent anti-social behaviour and to keep communities safe.

"I would like to thank the public for their assistance in this matter and I would ask them to continue providing police with information as operations continue.”
