Maldon District Council meeting ends in walk-out protest

A council meeting was abandoned after police officers were called amid claims of disruptive behaviour.

Maldon District Council in Essex was discussing sanctions against member Chrisy Morris, who denies disclosing confidential information.

Police officers said he was "breaching the peace" after he repeatedly interjected while the chairman was trying to talk on Thursday evening.

Essex Police has been asked for comment.
