Merseyside Police is appealing for witnesses following a disturbance at a fast food restaurant in Bootle on Monday (26 June).



Officers were called to reports of five men having fled the McDonalds restaurant following a fight shortly before 6.30pm. It is believed that three men, one armed with a metal bar, had entered the restaurant and then started to attack two other men in the restaurant.

All five men then left the restaurant, with the three attackers seen getting into a dark coloured car which was driven off along Stanley Road towards Liverpool city centre.

It is believed that there were a number of other customers in McDonalds at the time of the incident and officers are appealing to anyone who was in the restaurant and who may have information which could help them with their inquiries to call them.

Officers are carrying out inquiries locally and will also be looking at CCTV in a bid to identify those involved.

​One of the men is described as white, aged mid to late 20's, of slim build with dark shoulder length curly hair and facial hair. He was wearing a blue T-shirt, which was later removed, dark coloured shorts and dark footwear.

The second man was white, also aged mid to late 20's, of slim build with short fair hair and facial hair. He was wearing a black T-shirt, black shorts and dark footwear.

The third man is described as a white man, aged mid to late 20's, of medium build with short dark receding hair. He was wearing a red T-shirt, black shorts and dark footwear.

Detectives are also keen to speak to anyone who may have any footage of the fight on their mobile phones to get in touch.

Anyone with information is asked to call Detective Constable Dave Rutherford on 0151 777 3035, or the Crimestoppers line anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
