Man wrestled to the ground and handcuffed after being refused entry to Justin Fletcher performance at the Southport Flower Show

A man was arrested and handcuffed after being refused entry to the Justin Fletcher performance at Southport Flower Show today (Sunday 18th August). The man tried to force his way into the already-packed event in the Garden Theatre where hundreds of families were enjoying the show.

He was manhandled out of the entrance and wrestled to the ground by security. Undercover police officers at the show then handcuffed him placing him under arrest. The man was ejected from the showground, released and sent on his way.
