13-year-old boy allegedly assaults police officer outside chip shop.
In Merseyside, a police officer found himself in a precarious situation after a scuffle with a teenage boy. The incident occurred outside a local chip shop on Roughwood Drive in Kirkby. Reports state that a group of rowdy youths were causing trouble by throwing bottles and stones at the shop and even attempting to break its windows. Concerned citizens quickly called the authorities, and officers promptly arrived at the scene at around 6:55 PM yesterday.

Upon their arrival, the officers tried to detain one of the male suspects, who became aggressive and resistant. In the chaos, the officer was pulled to the ground, hitting his head in the process. Video footage from the scene captured the distressing moment when the officer lay on his back on the road, while his colleagues checked on him. Meanwhile, other officers handcuffed a male suspect lying face-down nearby. Onlookers could be heard expressing their concern, with one woman saying that the officer seemed to have been knocked unconscious and another referring to him as "out cold." A voice in the background could be heard pleading that the officer was just a kid.

The injured officer was immediately taken to the hospital for a thorough check-up on his head injury. Fortunately, he was released shortly after. The incident occurred on Roughwood Drive in Kirkby, and a 13-year-old boy has been arrested on suspicion of assaulting an emergency worker. He is currently in police custody.

Chief Inspector Chris Ruane of the Knowsley neighbourhood expressed his disappointment at the incident, stating that it was shameful that a police officer was injured while simply doing his job. He also mentioned that it was nothing but luck that the officer's injuries were not more severe. Chief Inspector Ruane also highlighted the impact that anti-social behavior has on communities, causing misery and fear among residents. He emphasized that those who engage in such behavior not only risk getting a criminal record at a young age but also jeopardize their own future.

Chief Inspector Ruane concluded by stating that anti-social behavior would not be tolerated, and the police would continue to do everything in their power to catch the perpetrators and bring them to justice. It is essential for the community to come together and condemn such behavior to create a safer and more harmonious environment for everyone.
