POLICE are investigating a break-in at a Hampshire leisure centre.

The burglary at Holly Hill Leisure Centre, Sarisbury Green, was discovered after police were called to reports of anti-social behaviour in the car park.

A group of about 15 people dispersed as police arrived at the centre in Barnes Lane.

Officers checked the premises and discovered the building had been broken into and items of food and drink stolen.

Police were alerted at 8.40pm on Friday.

A police spokesperson said: "We were called to reports of a group causing anti-social behaviour at the Holly Hill Leisure Centre car park.

"A large group dispersed from the area before they could be spoken to.

"Attending officers established that entry had been gained to the leisure centre and food and drink were stolen from inside."
