Riot in England
Boy (11) allegedly set fire to police car
Police in the UK have now arrested an eleven-year-old who allegedly set fire to a police car. The car burnt out. The incident occurred during riots in the north-eastern English town of Hartlepool.
Around 150 people rioted there on Wednesday evening and attacked the police. Four officers were injured. The police arrested a dozen people, seven men were charged with "violent disorder" and are due to appear in court.
Youth stabbed three girls
The riots broke out after a teenager stabbed three girls and injured ten other people, some critically, in the coastal town of Southport on Monday (see video above). Rumors were then spread on social media that the perpetrator was a Muslim asylum seeker. The police announced that the 17-year-old was born in the UK. His parents come from Rwanda.
Clashes in London
There were also clashes between right-wing extremists and the police in London's government district. More than 110 people were arrested. In Southport itself, there was rioting on Tuesday evening, with a mosque and police officers being attacked. More than 50 people were injured there.
The authorities are already preparing for further riots this Friday evening and over the weekend. Protests have been called again in numerous cities, often in the vicinity of mosques.
