North Yorkshire Police said this morning that there were no major incidents last night after bars and restaurants opened after lockdown.
Assistant Chief Constable Mike Walker, said:
“My thanks to everyone who enjoyed last night responsibly and to the licensees who have worked hard over the past weeks to prepare for opening. It’s inevitable that with alcohol consumption comes antisocial behaviour and we were prepared for an increase in demand. It was busy but no more than a usual Saturday night.”
These images were taken around Harrogate town centre at 9.30pm last night- the mood appeared upbeat.
