The organisers of Bootle fair have confirmed that the funfair has been cancelled tonight because of the "bad weather".
The company that run the fair, Mega Value Fun Parks posted on their Facebook claiming that the site would be shut until tomorrow. But Merseyside Police confirmed chaos broke out at the fair last night. Officers were called to reports of a fight at the event, on Acorn Way, at around 8.05pm on Monday, April 11.
At the scene, they said a young woman had allegedly been assaulted by a young man, and he was kicked out of the event by security staff. The security staff then claimed a gang of teens and young people then gathered outside the fair and challenged them.
