Security guards have been slammed for spraying red paint at brawling concert goers 'making them think they'd been injured'.
A judge said the move by security staff at a Stranglers gig inflamed an already volatile situation because brawlers initially believed the paint was blood.
It comes as six people attending the concert at Victoria Hall in Hanley, in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire were sentenced for their part in the disturbance.
