This is why you might have seen police stopping cars outside a Doncaster park

Officers were pictured stopping a string of taxis outside Elmfield Park on Bennetthorpe on Friday night, sparking fears of a new police probe at the park which has seen a number of serious crimes in recent years.

But the pre-planned operation by South Yorkshire Police’s Neighbourhood Policing Team was carried out in conjunction with Doncaster Council to check taxi licences and check vehicle roadworthiness.
