A family whose livelihood was threatened when a brawl outside broke through into their restaurant has said that their community helped them get back on their feet.
On Monday, April 18, the Carney family were sitting down for dinner when they received a call from a friend of theirs, telling them that there was a police presence outside their restaurant, called 625 in West Kirby. Minutes later another call came in, this time from the police, informing them that 625 had been damaged during an altercation that occurred outside.
When they arrived, they saw the whole front window smashed, glass was all over the shop floor. For the family it wasn't just the main source of income on the line but their whole life project.
