Library trouble

INCREASED security measures are being considered at Brownlow Library after youths abused a member of staff there.

A teenager was arrested after an incident in which three males entered the library and verbally abused a member of staff last Tuesday.

When the group was asked to leave one of them grabbed a book, pushed a member of staff and ran off.

The youth then set light to the book outside the building.

"We are considering increasing security measures at the library. A 16 year old was arrested and later released pending further enquiries.
