A LARGE police unit broke up an unlawful gathering at the Pink Spice restaurant in Harlow on Tuesday night.
Over a hundred members of the traveller community had gathered at the Commonside Road restaurant.
When a YH reporter arrived the car park had been sealed off by the police.
A number of officers were at the front of the restaurant, appearing to speak to party-goers within.
Most of the revellers were dressed up.
A large police contingent had parked up at the Co-Op car park nearby in Maunds Hatch.
YH counted over twenty police vehicles.
By 2100 hrs, over fifteen officers in riot gear, marched into the restaurant and broke up the gathering.
From what we could see, it was peaceful and no signs of public disorder.
