A fight broke out in a Liverpool corner shop as customers threw items at each other and staff intervened with a pool cue.
The fight broke out at the Fairways Best-one on Townsend Lane, Anfield, on February 28. A video, which has been circulating on social media, shows scenes of chaos inside the store.
A 49-year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of affray, breach of the peace and threats to kill. She was taken to a police station in Merseyside and has since been released on bail.

The video clip begins as a woman, wearing a shirt that reads "all things are possible with coffee and mascara", picks up a bag of sugar and throws it into another aisle. Shouting, swearing and commotion can be heard as she throws.
The camera pans to a smiling onlooker before a staff member, appearing to be holding a pool cue, then intervenes. The woman then tells the staff member "I'll f***ing knock you out with that bat" before throwing more bags of sugar over the shelves separating the aisles.
Another woman then retaliates, throwing items back from the other aisle. Bags of sugar and cans of Strongbow cider can be seen littered across the floor.
Amid the chaos, a disgruntled shopper caught in the bedlam can be heard saying: "I only wanted ciggies". One woman is heard yelling "I want my money" and staff member is called a "soft c**t".
Another can be heard saying: "She's just swung for my son". The staff member responds by telling those involved to leave and says they are not allowed inside the shop.
Towards the end of the clip, which lasts around 100 seconds, a police officer enters the store to deal with the incident.
