Liverpool waterfront dispersal zone extended after police make 'several arrests'

A dispersal zone at Liverpool waterfront has been extended after police made "several arrests".

Merseyside Police announced on Tuesday, April 4, they put a dispersal zone in place at Liverpool waterfront after reports of gangs of kids causing trouble in the area over recent weeks. One police inspector described how gangs had caused "distress and intimidation" to people going about their day.

Some incidents included assault, causing anti-social behaviour, criminal damage and robbery offences. Now, the order has been extended until 2am on Thursday to try and prevent anti-social behaviour and crime.
