Police investigating an illegal rave at a South Holland beauty spot have today (Thursday) released a series of images showing people they are looking for.

Four men were arrested and five officers were injured at the unauthorised event at Shep Whites , off Barge Road, Holbeach St Matthew, in the early hours of Sunday, September 20.

It is thought that at least 200 people were at the rave which Police and Crime Commissioner Marc Jones later described as "beyond stupid and totally irresponsible".

The images have been taken from body-worn cameras used by police while breaking up the rave.

Inspector Nick Waters, South Holland sector neighbourhood policing inspector, said: "This gathering was in clear contravention of the legislation at the time and those involved put themselves and the community at risk.

"Incidents involving such a high number of people can make it difficult for officers to deal with everyone at the time.
