TVs seized after noise complaints

TWO televisions and audio equipment have been seized from a house in Rotherham following complaints about loud music.

Officers from Rotherham Borough Council and the police entered a house in Kimberworth Park last Wednesday and seized six pieces of audio equipment after the authority obtained a warrant from Magistrates following noise complaints.

Rotherham Magistrates’ Court heard that there had been several complaints from neighbours.

Council officers investigated earlier this year and due to the levels of noise that were coming from the property, a noise abatement notice was served requiring the householders to take all necessary steps to stop the nuisance — a measure which was ignored.
