‘Cowboys and Indians’ style arcade game removed from Somerset pier after racism complaint

A "Cowboys and Indians" style arcade game was removed from a Somerset pier after a visitor complained that it was racist.

Emily Crossing wrote to officials at the Grand Pier in Weston-super-Mare to say the game, which shows figures of cowboys and Native Americans, was "extremely racist" and "outdated."

"Mum and I both just had our mouths open when we first saw it - we were in absolute shock," the 30-year-old said.

The figures depicted in the game can be seen in this clip.
