Two boys arrested after police attacked at Northern Ireland protocol protest
The Guardian says two boys aged 12 and 15 have been arrested on suspicion of riotous behaviour after police came under attack after a protest against the Northern Ireland Brexit protocol in Belfast.
Police described the scenes on Wednesday as “disgraceful”, with officers subjected to a volley of missiles and fireworks close to the site of previous violence in April. Three police vehicles were damaged.
The PSNI district commander, Darrin Jones, told BBC Good Morning Ulster no officers had been injured but said they believed the protest had been organised by “older people” who would have known the site of the protest was “a very volatile area”.
