A TRIO of men have been fined after a hare coursing incident in Bishops Cannings, near Devizes.
Stanley Mosley, 23, and James Mosley, 26, both of Woking, Surrey, and Mark Mosley, 27, of Lightwater, Surrey, were found guilty at Swindon Magistrates’ Court on April 6 of this year.
Police had been called to Bishops Cannings back on September 29, 2019 after receiving reports of suspicious activity on private farmland near the village.
The landowner and their farm staff had detained the three men ahead of the arrival of police officers.
The three men were arrested and interviewed before being summoned to court, where they failed to appear and were found guilty in their absence.
