A dispersal zone has been introduced following violent scenes at a funfair last night.
Merseyside Police were called to the Acon Way area in Bootle following reports of a disturbance at a funfair. At around 8.05pm police received reports that a woman had been assaulted by a young man and that the security staff at the far had removed the boy.
Following this, a large group of teens were reported to have gathered outside the fair to challenge staff. Police officers attended where bottles and bricks were thrown at them, with two police vehicles being damaged and an officer suffering minor injuries as a result.
