POLICE are taking a tougher line with licensed premises which have experienced incidents of ‘glassing’ by requesting that they consider using plastic glasses instead.
If a further glassing incident occurs within 12 months of the letter being sent, the club or pub could have its licence revoked.
Gloucestershire Constabulary licensing manager PC Jaine Simner said: "Most major clubs and pubs with late night licences already use polycarbonate glasses, but we are seeking to encourage this throughout Gloucestershire whenever these horrific incidents do occur."
