A Leeds woman says she will never go to Leeds West Indian Carnival again after she claims her sister was "abused" in the crowd.
The popular event was back this year after a two-year absence, and marked the 55th anniversary of the celebration. The event was established in 1967 as a remedy for those experiencing homesickness after coming over from the Caribbean, and has been taking place on the streets of Harehills and Chapeltown for over 50 years.
On Bank Holiday Monday (August 29) thousands gathered in the streets for the celebration - which is usually full of colourful outfits, big smiles, and beloved music. However, 21-year-old Annabelle Joseph, known as Anne, says after this year's event she does "not feel safe going back".
