A spokesperson for Kent Police said: “Kent Police is aware of incidents of anti-social behaviour in the Broadstairs area including under-age street drinking, fighting and reports of aggressive behaviour towards staff at shops and restaurants during the evening of Thursday 19 June 2025.
“Officers attended and three arrests were made on suspicion of offences relating to public order, assault and criminal damage.
“Two boys aged 16 and 17, and a 15-year old girl, all from Thanet, have since been released on bail pending further enquiries.
“Officers are currently investigating these incidents, and a dispersal order has been implemented due to ongoing concerns relating to issues caused by a small minority of young people in some public areas including the town centre and beaches.
“We fully understand that residents may be concerned about incidents of crime and disorder committed by the minority, however they should feel reassured that local officers will be on patrol in the area to provide a visible presence to prevent offences from occurring.”;
