Fined £1,050

Officers received reports of hare coursing on Sunday 13 September 2020 at around 6.55pm close by to Lower Bisterne Farm Estate in Ringwood. A local resident had been walking their dogs when he noticed two men in an adjacent estate field and grew suspicious, after he had witnessed them flushing a hare and then releasing a dog in order to pursue the hare. The two men attempted to flee the scene in their vehicle which was parked close by, but were blocked from leaving by the estate associates and eventually fled on foot. Following police enquiries, the two men were subsequently arrested a short while later. They were reported for summons on suspicion of poaching offences, namely trespassing in pursuit of game.

Convicted of poaching offences.
