The 38-year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of violent disorder.

Emergency services descended on the town on Monday after a man with stab wounds was dropped off outside the police station in Station Street, while a grey Vauxhall Corsa crashed into a lamppost and railings in Park Road.

People also saw groups carrying weapons, with police reporting people spotted "wielding golf clubs".
