The London Riots caused over £100m worth of damage
It’s been 13 years since the London riots, which swept across the capital and other parts of England over five days in August 2011.
More than two thousand arrests were made as a result of the riots, which also left five people dead and hundreds of families homeless, as unrest, looting and property damage devastated parts of the city.
In the following days, violence spread across London and eventually to other areas of the country too.
