Assistant Chief Constable Gerard Milano, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: "The current lockdown legislation is very clear that mixing indoors with people you don’t live with, or have a support bubble with, is not allowed.
“This was a flagrant breach of the rules and was dealt with accordingly.
“However, it is also important to recognise that these individuals are very much in the minority.
