Police have cordoned off Oxton Rd at it's junction with Balls Rd. and Ridley St. The cordon extend down to Belmont, possibly to Town View.

At around 8pm Sunday night on Borough Road, 4 youths, 2 male and 2 female who appeared to have been drinking alcohol in the grounds of Birkenhead central library, lashed out (unprovoked) at two passers-by outside the Greek restaurant – although this happened earlier in the evening I’d be surprised if it wasn’t connected
