Dec 10 2009 by Claire Devine, Chester Chronicle
ANIMAL rights protesters targeted a city centre wine shop today (Thursday, December 10).
The group was campaigning against foie gras which is being sold by Nicholas wine merchants on Bridge Street, Chester.
The protesters arrived about 3pm and were spoken to by Cheshire Police community support officers and a police officer at about 4.50pm after complaints from shops about the noise.
The group held placards and gave out Viva leaflets to passers-by to highlight their issues with foie gras.
