Hide AdDUP councillor George Duddy said he was ‘anxious’ that this was the second incident involving knifes in the area in the past few months.
“There is no place for knives in society today,” said the DUP man.
“I would urge police to carry out more searches and get these weapons off our streets before someone is seriously injured or killed.
“We live in an tourist area, incidents like this only give out a negative impression of the town, we don’t want this as we approach the summer season.”
