A 25 year old Chepstow man has been cautioned over the misuse of social media in the wake of the rioting chaos.

The man, who was cautioned for encouraging or assisting in the commission of a public order offence, has been bailed pending further enquiries.

The arrest follows a series of social media misuses in the Gwent area, which the Police twitter pages described as, "scaremongering on social media".

Gwent Police: "continue to urge the members of the community to use social media responsibly and not to add to the huge amount of rumour that has, inevitably, arisen".
