AN INVESTIGATION is ongoing after three people in a Range Rover made off without paying for more than £100 of fuel.

Officers have issued a CCTV image of people they would like to speak with in relation to the incident at a Bournemouth petrol station.

The incident took place at around 4pm on Sunday, August 14, at the Esso petrol station in Charminster Road. A man filled up with £114-worth of fuel before making off without payment.

Police Constable Kate Schofield, of Dorset Police, said: “We are continuing to investigate this incident and have obtained a CCTV image of the incident.
