more

Detectives are issuing images of eight more people who may have information following incidents of disorder in Merseyside. 
 
Detective Chief Inspector Tony Roberts said: "These eight males need to make themselves known as soon as possible, as we think they could assist our ongoing investigations into the incidents of disorder in Southport and Liverpool.
 
"The violence and damage caused last week and at the weekend was despicable, and each and every person who took part can expect to face the consequences of their actions.
 
"We are still working through hours of footage and reams of images as it comes in and we’ll continue to arrest, charge and put before the courts anyone identified. 
 
"We have so far seen 52 people arrested, 26 charged and eight jailed. There will be more to follow in the coming days, and many people who have not yet had a visit from our officers can expect one soon. 
 
"The courts have acted swiftly to jail those people who being violence, racism and hatred into our communities and that will continue into next week.
 
"To anyone intent on bringing violence and disorder to Merseyside in the future: don’t. You will join the ever growing list of people convicted and jailed for bringing violent disorder to our streets."
