Police Called After Wedding Fight

Police have been forced to attend a disturbance in Torquay – after a fight broke out at a wedding reception.

According to reports, the incident occurred last Friday (15 August). The couple, who have not been named, married at a hotel in Torquay before they and their guests were transported by bus to Torquay United Football Club for their reception. However, the wedding party was later asked to leave the premises due to their behaviour but some of the guests decided to continue their celebrations along the St Marychurch Road. At around 11.30pm, police were called to a local pub after the bride and groom started "arguing" in the toilets and disturbed other drinkers.

No arrests were made and the group dispersed once police arrived at the scene.

A spokesperson for the police said: "We were called by a member of the public at 11.30pm to reports of a group of men and women outside a pub shouting and screaming and throwing glass.

"When we arrived we found glass in the street but no on-going fight. It appears to have involved a wedding party."

Confirming a wedding reception had been held at the football club last week, Andrew Candy, Chief Executive, is quoted as saying: "We did host the reception here and I understand it was a fairly lively event which I believe once they left did spiral over into other places. We do try to uphold proper standards here and reserve the right to remove people if their behaviour is not acceptable.

"The standards we try to uphold at the club require behaviour to be acceptable and in the circumstances our guests did not perform to the standards that are acceptable and we reserve the right to be able to remove them."
