Six people were arrested after violence erupted on Bonfire Night in Meadow Well, North Tyneside, with fireworks and bricks thrown at emergency services.
Six people, including three teenage boys, were arrested after disorder on Bonfire Night in the Meadow Well estate in North Tyneside. Police said fireworks and bricks were thrown at officers and fire crews responding to reports of anti-social behaviour on Waterville Road at about 21:00 on Thursday. Five police cars and three fire engines were damaged, and several officers were injured. Northumbria Police said the disorder related to misinformation in the community that a building under construction would become a House in Multiple Occupation (HMO). The building is actually planned to become a Heron Foods supermarket with private flats above. Two men aged 25 and 27, a woman aged 27, and three teenage boys remain in custody on suspicion of violent disorder.
