The activists were met with jeers from the crowd, with several shouting 'pr**ks' as the protesters were arrested

An activist from the climate group climbed on top of a snooker table at around 7.20pm at Sheffield’s Crucible Theatre, unleashing a cloud of orange powder paint while play was in progress in a match between Robert Milkins and Joe Perry.

The intruders were met with jeers from the crowd, with members of the public shouting “pr**ks” before security detained and arrested the activists. Play was immediately suspended as cleaners brought vacuum cleaners into the arena and master of ceremonies Rob Walker was among those helping to sweep up the mess.
