TV CREWS from Sky News captured a night out in Warrington on Saturday - painting an ugly picture of a town plagued by drunk yobs.
Chief correspondent Stuart Ramsay visited Bridge Street with the help of cameramen who filmed five police officers tackling drunken revellers.
The video segment shows a grey-haired woman lying in the road after seemingly being attacked in a fight, as two couples argue over a taxi.
The reporter says that the police he accompanied pointed the finger at staggered opening hours and a cheap booze culture.
And he claims that in one four-hour period, he did not meet a single person who was sober and that most could not actually speak'.
