...as over 30 men from the Langport area 'hit' Dulverton...
Pubs and restaurants were evacuated in Dulverton last night as a stag party rampaged through the town forcing local police to call in reinforcements from nearby Devon.
"When we saw the binder twine holding up the groom's trousers, we quickly realised the group were from the Langport area" said a local constable, "so we sealed off the children's play areas and the public toilets as well"
It's believed many of the men are Friday early doors regulars at The Rose and Crown in Huish Episcopi....where the children's area was indeed seen abandoned last night.
"Oh yes they were definitely locals from Eli's" said one eyewitness, "they kept checking the 'use by' dates on the pork scratchings"
The Chief Constable at Avon and Somerset Police - pictured - says they arrested 27 people, all of whom are from the Dulverton area - none of those on the stag night were detained (or got caught)
"Result!" said Langport Town Council Leader Janet Seaton, "that's my boys!"
There are no further details.
