The shocking moment armed teenagers confronted a grieving child was captured on film.
In the sinister clip, one of the hoody wearing boys can be seen wielding a hammer.
Several members of the group can be heard screaming and swearing over the fence where the young friend of murdered Danny Gee-Jamieson was cowering.
The young man, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was due to give evidence in court during the trial of Owen Cousins.
The 17-year-old had knifed Danny, 16, to death in front of 30 people, Liverpool Echo reported.
In October last year, with the trial approaching, the hooded yobs demanded the witness meet them in a nearby park.
Neighbors tried to diffuse the situation while the group yelled at a young girl, in scenes that cannot be shown for legal reasons.
