Daughter got stopped by Police last night on her way in to the Welsh town she lives in. They were stopping every car at a big roundabout leading in.
She was fine, was down here when the curfew was announced, worked all week from her Mum's place then headed home with the kids. Maybe checking to make sure no second home or holiday folk come in as well as unnecessary trips?
Snowdonia visitor blocked in by angry locals as police are called to stand-off on country laneThe man from Sheffield was spotted near Bala despite the coronavirus lockdown being in place
A man visiting North Wales from Sheffield amid the coronavirus crisis was blocked on a country road by angry locals as police were called to the confrontation.
The incident took place on Saturday morning on a narrow lane near Bala after locals spotted a Range Rover and trailer in the area.
Police and a Snowdonia National Park warden attended the scene after being alerted by the visitor, who was told to return home.
Aled Wyn Williams, of Parc, Bala, was one of two local men who confronted the visitor at a time when people have been urged to stay at home to stop the spread of coronavirus.
Mr Williams said he was angered by the lack of respect shown by the visitor, and stopped him on the road along with his friend Oswyn Roberts.
"He was heading away from Bala and the main road," said Mr Williams.
"I drove along the road and stopped him. My friend Oswyn Roberts came along behind, blocking him in."
Part of the incident was filmed and Mr Williams said >>>>>>>
