The chaos in the city centre that led to four police officers being attacked last night started after knives were thrown over a fence at a birthday party, the M.E.N. has learned.
A number of fights broke out across St Peter’s Square and Piccadilly Gardens on Monday (July 24) following a party being shut down on Deansgate, GMP said. Four teenagers - aged between 16 and 18 - were arrested on suspicion of affray, a spokesperson for the force added.
Now, the Manchester Evening News can reveal that the birthday party took place at Rebellion, an alternative music venue and club, with management saying the clientele was ‘not what we expected’. They added that the decision to shut down the event was done on police advice.

Police were called by Rebellion staff after security guards found ‘weaponry’ was ‘thrown’ over its ‘beer garden fence’, a spokesperson said. In a statement, they added: “[The event] was booked by the parents and it looked kosher to us.
“On the night, 200-odd under-18s came in and it was not what we expected, but we decided to roll with it — everyone was ID’d, and no alcohol was served. One of our security noticed something was going on in the beer garden.
“He found out that weaponry had been thrown over the fence. They called the police and they suggested we call the event to an end. We waited until [enough] people dispersed [from the venue] so the police could deal with [those remaining inside the venue].
“This morning police have looked at CCTV and licensing have been in touch. It’s a horrible thing. We did everything we were asked to do, and hopefully we will come out of this.”
