The windscreen of a police vehicle was smashed and a side panel damaged on another.

Three people were arrested. A 16-year-old boy and a 20-year-old man have been summonsed to appear in court on charges of disorderly behaviour. An 18-year-old man was charged with unlawful damage.

No police or revellers were injured.
