THERE was a heavy police presence in the North Lodge Park area of Darlington this evening after a disturbance involving members of the far-right English Defence League.
The officers remained in the area to provide reassurance to residents and those attending the nearby Jamia Mosque.
It is understood that a group of EDL supporters visited the area following a rally on Teesside earlier in the day.
No further details are available.
