Cars were set on fire and a local convenience store was also damaged, police said.

The protest followed a peaceful vigil for the victims of a deadly stabbing that occurred a day prior in the town.
Three children were killed and nine others injured in the stabbing incident, police said. Two adults were also injured while trying to protect the children, police said.
Merseyside police said the children were attending a Taylor Swift-themed event at a dance school at the time.

“There has been much speculation and hypothesis around the status of a 17-year-old male who is currently in police custody and some individuals are using this to bring violence and disorder to our streets,” Goss said in a statement. “We have already said that the person arrested was born in the UK and speculation helps nobody at this time.”
