On arrival, we were made aware of a further disturbance nearby on West Park.
Our officers attended this location and arrested a 39-year-old man on suspicion of assault, a public order offence and two attempted robberies after two other women reported a man had tried to take their mobile phones.
The man currently remains in custody and enquiries into the incident are ongoing.
