In a statement, Mr. Lyons said: “Larne’s reputation is being dragged through the mud by those who have no thought for the impact of their actions on the local community.
“I am pleased that the PSNI has committed to stepping up their presence and would urge anyone with information to come forward. Our community stands against this behaviour and will not allow a small minority to damage the reputation of our town.”
