Nine men jailed for throwing tables, chairs and glasses during vicious wedding brawl at hotel

A rowdy group of men who threw tables, chairs and glasses in a wedding brawl have been jailed. The men, aged between 21 and 55, were among 60 guests in attendance at the event which was held at The Daresbury Hotel in Runcorn, Cheshire on June 26, 2019.

The lengthy brawl broke out at around 11.15pm in the function room and continued until around midnight, progressing into other parts of the hotel, with areas destroyed by the rammy, Manchester Evening News reports. At one point, a couple of the men armed themselves with coat stands and fire extinguishers before making their way back to the main room to rejoin the chaos.

Five cops arrived at the scene at around 11:30pm, and they were forced to call back up officers armed with stun guns after glasses were thrown in their direction. When the other officers arrived, there were still several men fighting in the bar and throwing items at other guests.
