Overnight Parking Restrictions in Eryri National Park Paused After Local Concerns Rise Overview Overnight parking rules at several car parks in Eryri National Park have been paused after concerns grew about worsening antisocial behaviour. The authority had introduced limits in April across eleven car parks to reduce litter, damage, and inappropriate overnight stays. Nine car parks will now allow overnight parking again while further public consultation takes place. Why the Restrictions Were Introduced The park authority brought in overnight parking limits to control growing issues linked to camper vans and late night stays. These issues included littering, noise, and misuse of public spaces. The aim was to protect the environment and improve conditions for both visitors and residents. Nearly four million people visit the park each year, and many begin early morning hikes to reach Yr Wyddfa for sunrise. Local Concerns About the Ban Some residents and local business owners said the restrictions created new problems instead of solving them. In Betws y Coed, a guesthouse owner reported increased camper van parking on residential streets. He also described situations where private gardens were being used inappropriately, raising concerns among homeowners. Locals said the pressure on nearby streets increased after the restrictions came into force. Decision to Pause the Policy At the authoritys annual meeting, members agreed to pause the overnight parking restrictions. The decision followed feedback from residents, visitors, and tourism operators who raised concerns about the impact of the policy. Officials said further consultation is needed to find a better balance between visitor access and local wellbeing. What Happens Next The authority will continue reviewing parking management across the national park. The focus is now on reducing antisocial behaviour while still supporting tourism and early morning access to key hiking routes.

# Five Men Jailed After Violence Erupts at Henry Nowak Protest ## Protest Turns Violent Following Henry Nowak Case Five men have been sentenced to prison after taking part in violent disorder during a protest in Southampton linked to the death of Henry Nowak. The demonstration took place on 2 June after the release of police body camera footage showing the final moments of 18 year old Henry Nowak's life. Nowak died after being stabbed by Vickrum Digwa, who later received a life sentence with a minimum term of 21 years. The protest quickly escalated into violence. Officers faced attacks from members of the crowd, while objects were thrown at police lines. ## Police Officers Injured During Disorder The unrest left 12 police officers injured. A police dog also suffered injuries during the incident. Protesters threw wheelie bins, chairs, stones, and other objects at officers. Police worked to control the situation as tensions rose throughout the gathering. The court heard that the violence caused significant disruption and placed both officers and members of the public at risk. ## Court Hands Down Prison Sentences Southampton Crown Court sentenced five men for their involvement in the disorder. Daniel Frost, 44, from Southampton, received a prison sentence of two years and four months. The court heard he threw chairs and a bin into the road. He also carried a modified dog lead fitted with a metal carabiner that could be used as a weapon. Reece Robinson, 21, from Havant, was sentenced to two years in prison. Evidence showed he stood near the front of the crowd and threw stones or bricks towards police officers. Taylor Grundy, 22, from Gosport, was jailed for two and a half years for his role in the disorder. Andrew Summerhayes, 38, from Romsey, received the longest sentence of three years and two months. Prosecutors said he pushed a large bin into police officers during the violence. The court also noted his lengthy criminal record. Dillon Crawford, 29, from Southampton, was sentenced to three years in prison. ## Judge Condemns Actions of Protesters Judge William Mousley KC strongly criticised the behaviour of those involved. He described the incident as a serious outbreak of public disorder. The judge stated that hostility toward police officers played a major role in the violence. During sentencing, the court highlighted the dangerous nature of the attacks on officers and the impact the disorder had on the local community. The judge also pointed out that several defendants actively encouraged or participated in confrontational behaviour rather than leaving the scene when violence began. ## Impact on Community The case serves as a reminder of the consequences of violent public disorder. While peaceful protest remains a legal right, the court made clear that attacks on police officers and public violence will result in serious penalties. The prison sentences reflect the severity of the disorder and the injuries suffered by officers during the incident.
