TEMPERS boiled over into violence during an argument about parking at Taunton's Somerset College of Arts and Technology this week.

A clamper allegedly grabbed one student by the throat and punched another in the face when he caught them parked in the wrong place at the Wellington Road campus.

But security company Able Property Services claim the student became physical with their officer first and his patrol vehicle was dented in the fracas.

Police were called to the incident at lunchtime on Monday and took statements from those involved.
