Four men have been jailed for a combined seven and a half years for their role in disorder in Merseyside.
They appeared at Liverpool Crown Court yesterday, Thursday 15 August, after all pleading guilty to violent disorder at previous hearings.
It means the total number of people now in prison cells following disorder in Southport and Liverpool stands at 15.
The latest men jailed are:
-Tom Neblett, 20, of High Park Road, Southport, was sentenced to two years and six months
-Tony Hazlett, 46, of Bank Road, Bootle, was sentenced to two years and four months
-Gerard Cooch, 39, of Merton Road, Bootle, was sentenced to one year and eight months
-Curtis Faure, 19, of Thomas Lane, Broadgreen, was sentenced to one year
Neblett and Hazlett were both part of the disorder in Southport on Tuesday 30 July and threw bricks and other objects at officers.
Cooch and Faure were both part of disorder in Liverpool city centre on Saturday 3 August. Cooch was identified on footage kicking officers’ shields and Faure threw a brick at officers.
Assistant Chief Constable Paul White said: “These four individuals clearly played a part in the despicable scenes we all witnessed in Southport and Liverpool city centre.
“To target police officers in such a violent manner is appalling and the people involved should be ashamed of themselves.
“We continue to identify more and more people who attended the disorder in Merseyside and we will not stop until we’ve put everyone we possibly can before the courts.”
