POLICE Officers are carrying out enquiries into a small number of reports of possible spikings in Dumfries over the past fortnight.
The incidents took place on Saturday, 19 February, and Saturday, 26 February.
Enquiries are at an early stage and there is no evidence currently to suggest that the reports are linked.
Inspector Anna Boyd, from Dumfries Police Station, said: “We are carrying out a number of enquiries, but can confirm at this time that we have no confirmed cases in the Dumfries and Galloway area.
“Our community officers will be carrying out extra night-time patrols this weekend and engaging with the public and licensees to provide reassurance.
“We take all reports seriously and encourage anyone who believes they have been a victim of spiking in any form to contact police by calling 101.”
