Cops injured in fan clash Jan 19 2006

SEVEN police officers were injured as they tried to keep rival fans apart after Everton's FA Cup replay with Millwall last night.

 

Violence flared in the streets around Goodison Park as the away supporters were being escorted from the ground to their coaches.

 

Scores of officers were drafted to strengthen the police line as bottles were hurled and fans tried to get to each other.

 

The seven officers injured needed ambulance treatment, and two police horses were hurt by broken glass.

 

Inspector Bob Wilson of Mersey-side police said: "A number of fans attended the fixture clearly intent on causing disorder. However, they were effectively dispersed."

 

 

There were no serious injuries and six people were arrested for disorder during and after the game, which Everton won 1-0.

 

 

Gary Harris, 26, from Walton, who was at the game, said: "It was obvious during the match something was going to go off after. The Park End and the Millwall fans were at each other from kick-off.

 

 

"When they finally let the Mill-wall fans out the atmosphere went really nasty. Bottles and all sorts were lashed at them and they were giving it back just as well.

 

 

"There were police vans everywhere and ambulances flying past. It's lucky someone didn't get badly hurt but the police kept them apart."
