Five people arrested following the Welsh Cup semi-final in Llandudno have been released on bail.

Police were called to the Nevill pub, opposite the train station on Vaughan Street, at just before 4pm on Saturday afternoon.

Fans had gathered before and after the semi-final game between Bangor City 1876 and Flint Town United, which was held at nearby Maesdu Park.

North Wales Police said five people were held on suspicion of public order offences, actual bodily harm and assaulting an emergency worker.

They have since been released while investigations continue.

CCTV and video footage is currently being reviewed and detectives are appealing for anyone with footage of what happened to come forward.

A spokesperson added: "Please be aware that posting on social media once proceedings are active - when someone is arrested or charged - can seriously impede or prejudice any potential future legal proceedings. This applies to everyone, and you could be found in contempt of court."

Bangor City said it was "aware of an incident shared on social media involving the club chairman".

A spokesperson for the Ardal League club said: "We understand the matter is currently subject to ongoing action by North Wales Police, therefore, at this time, the club is unable to comment further."

"CPD Bangor City 1876 has established policies and procedures to address any issued raised and will follow those processes should they be required."

"Further updates will be provided if and when appropriate, until then the club will be making no further comments."

Flint Town United won the game 5-1 and will play Caernarfon Town in the final at Newport's Rodney Parade on Sunday 12th April.

In a statement, a spokesperson for the FAW said: "The JD Welsh Cup Semi-Final between Flint Town United and Bangor City 1876 at the Go Goodwins Stadium in Llandudno was played without incident."

"The FAW are aware of reports of alleged disorder in Llandudno town centre following the conclusion of the match, and whilst this falls outside of the FAW’s jurisdiction, the association will support the North Wales Police investigation if required.

"The JD Welsh Cup semi-final itself was a positive event for Welsh football. Violence has no place in football and damages the positive experience that is enjoyed by the majority."

Anyone who witnessed the disturbance or may have footage should contact North Wales Police on 101 or via the live webchat, quoting reference no. O035019.
