'Think about your job' partner begged police worker partner to stop train station attack

A Merseyside police employee attacked two station staff while on a night out with his partner.

Peter Kavanagh, 51, of Primrose Drive, Huyton, appeared at Liverpool Magistrates' Court on Wednesday, December 14. The court heard how he had assaulted two staff members while they were working at Moorfields train station.

A court heard that prior to the incident, Kavanagh, who works in Data Quality services for Merseyside police, had been celebrating his one year anniversary with his partner, and had drunk four pints of lager and half a bottle of wine. Mr Donovan Dineen-Whitham, who worked for Carlisle support services as a security officer at the station and Mr William Woods, the station manager, were both injured in the incident.
