Police in riot gear deal with Carrickfergus trouble
Police in riot gear were forced to respond after trouble broke out in Carrickfergus last night.
Officers went to the scene following reports that a large crowd of males had gathered in the Castlemara estate.
Officers eventually dispersed the crowd and seized a number of items including a crossbow.
Superintendent Emma Bond said: “Reports suggested some of the males were masked and may have been armed with weapons such as hammers.
“A 36-year-old male was arrested and remains in custody this morning.”
