Multiple vehicles have been seized as part of police efforts to tackle the use of e-scooters, e-bikes and off-road motorcycles. Plain-clothes officers, acting as spotters for uniformed officers, carried out an operation in Gwersyllt and Ruabon over the weekend to target those riding irresponsibly. Police said that both areas have seen an increase in the use of e-scooters, e-bikes and off-road motorcycles, which "is one of the biggest concerns amongst local people." A number of vehicles were seized and taken off the road as part of the weekend's operation. A police spokesperson said: "Many people simply do not realise that privately owned e-scooters are illegal on UK roads (this includes the pavement).

Residents across Wrexham have reported a strong smell of smoke and burning across the area today, prompting concerns of local wildfires. The smell in the city centre is particularly strong, however residents in Gwersyllt, Garden Village and wider county borough have reported similar issues. Lorna tweeted Wrexham.com to say: "Any incident around wildfire you know of? Strong burning smell in town and a smokey haze over mountains? Hoping all are safe if it is." North Wales Fire and Rescue Service confirmed that it has received multiple calls from across the region about the smell, which is being blown over the area from fires in South Wales.

The Studio, formerly occupied by Marcher Sound and later Heart North & Mid Wales, closed last year

A veterinary practice with three theatres, a CT scanner, a cattery and dog kennels has been proposed for the former Marcher Sound radio studios in Gwersyllt. The new change of use application covers the single storey building on Mold Road that housed commercial radio in north east Wales for four decades, operating as Marcher Sound, MFM and later Heart before Global announced in January 2025 that it would close the studio. Twelve jobs went with it. The new application proposes six full time and two part time posts, a total of seven full time equivalents.
