Young Southport mum escaped from drug fuelled fight

16th July 2019

A young mum walking her children near Lord Street says she feared for her life after being caught up in a fight between a group of addicts.

The young Mum was passing a group of drunk men and women at the corner of Albert Road and Leicester Street this evening when she found herself caught up in an altercation between the group.

She quickly pulled her children away and ran from the scene.

Despite it being only a few hundred yards away from Southport Police station, no officers attended despite there being clear evidence of drug dealing and alcohol drinking in the immediate area.

The young mum sent in this photo to OTS news to try and raise awareness of the group and encourage others to stay away.
