    I know Vic has brought this up in an earlier thread,but I was informed today by a local business owner of a major fight that took place in the Market Square on Thursday between two groups that from all accounts was quite a bloody affair.The individual was so concerned that they immediately sought to ring the police,but got no answer.They then ran up to the Eight Bells to try and make contact via the radio system used to report issues and finally made contact.The local business person then monitored how long it would take to respond to the incident.An ambulance turned up almost immediately,but it took the police 45 minutes to turn up.I do know that this is not a new occurrence for our town,but it is not good enough.We need to be sure that we have acceptable police response times to such violent incidents.The idea of personal safety and security must be prerequisite of any town that aspires to attract new visitors or new businesses.
