Video footage has emerged showing a group of women reacting angrily to security staff after being told to leave a bar in Mathew Street, believed to be ‘Rubber Soul’.

Today Merseyside Police arrested a 21-year-old from Anfield on suspicion of a racially aggravated public order offence.

Originally published on Facebook, the video shows a minute-long exchange during which the women behaved in an aggressive and threatening manner while several made a number of explicit and repeated racial slurs towards one member of door staff as they attempted to usher them away from the premises.
“Merseyside Police can confirm a 21-year-old woman from the Anfield area has been arrested on suspicion of a racially aggravated public order offence,” a spokeperson said.
“This follows the posting of a video on Facebook last night, Sunday March 6, which was brought to the police’s attention earlier today.”
