Police were called to Liverpool's team hotel in the early hours of this morning after it was targeted by fireworks ahead of their crucial Premier League game against Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Pyrotechnics were set off near the Titanic Hotel at Liverpool's Stanley Dock at around 1:45am on Sunday. Merseyside Police said officers were called after "a couple of fireworks" were let off outside the Regent Road hotel.
An empty box of fireworks was found on the pavement nearby.A police spokesperson said cops spoke to a man at the scene and took him home. No arrests were made, but high-visibility patrols were carried out following the incident. Liverpool play Wolves at Anfield at 4pm in the final game of the Premier League season.
A victory for the Reds would open up the possibility of a title triumph provided Manchester City, who play at the same time and are one point clear, fail to beat Aston Villa.
