**Major Police Response at Nantgarw McDonald’s**

If you were anywhere near Nantgarw Business Park yesterday morning, you might have noticed an unusual police presence. The commotion unfolded at the local McDonald’s when officers arrived following reports of suspicious activity.

Around 10:50 am, police swooped in, responding to reports of an incident that caught the attention of many bystanders. A 16-year-old was subsequently arrested and has been charged with two serious offences: intending to commit a relevant sexual offence and assault by beating.

This isn’t just any McDonald’s location—it’s nestled in a buzzing retail park, complete with a cinema, bowling alley, and numerous dining spots. If that wasn’t enough, it shares the area with a campus of Coleg Y Cymoedd, making it a hub of activity.
For those in Rhondda Cynon Taf, this incident has certainly set tongues wagging. The 16-year-old will appear in Merthyr Magistrates Court today, where the specifics of the charges will be explored further.
