AN organised pub crawl in Colchester passed off peacefully last night.

The Carnage UK event, which has sparked controversy in other parts of the country, saw 1,500 students descend upon Colchester town centre.

Colchester Police reported it was well run and passed without incident.

There were no arrests made although one student was given a dispersal order and was told to leave the town centre.
