City centre venues targeted in potential hate crime

Multiple business owners woke up to the news that their venues were damaged during the night.

On Point, on Eberle Street and YoYo Hairdressing and So Fine and Design on Leather Lane, had their windows smashed in what is being considered a potential hate crime.

The damage comes not even a month after heartless thugs broke into On Point and stole a children’s charity donation box. At the time, a spokesperson for the LGBTQ+ venue told the ECHO that apart from this, not much else was stolen, but the burglar caused thousands of pounds worth of damage. As the two incidents have occurred in such a short space of time, Merseyside Police are being “mindful that this could be targeted against the club”.
