Moree officer-in-charge Inspector Martin Burke said it's a timely reminder for residents to drink responsibly in an effort to avoid situations like this one.
"Police take alcohol-fuelled incidents seriously and implore people and their friends to look after themselves while out to prevent incidents like this from occurring," he said.
