"During this incident, three people were seriously assaulted with glassware.

"If you have any information or mobile phone footage etc. that could help identify the offenders please contact us by dialling 101 and quoting log number LC-20210515-1610."

One woman expressed his dismay at the fight.

"This is why the hospitality industry gets bad press, it’s not the masses just some silly idiots who can’t hold their drink and fight," she wrote on Facebook.

"If anyone knows anything let the police know, don’t let a few spoil it for anyone else

"Hope the injured recover quickly."
