RIOT Erupts in Leeds UK: Hundreds Descend on Streets -Police Car Overturned & Bus Set Ablaze

Hundreds of people descend on streets of Leeds for the SECOND night in a row demanding that children who were filmed being hauled from their family home are returned with their parents, now reportedly on hunger strike


MailOnline 20 JUL 2024
































People have descended on the streets of Leeds for a second night in a row demanding the children who were taken away by police yesterday be returned to their parents.

This comes as the father of the children claims he is on 'hunger strike' until they are returned to his family.




Riots in the Hare Hill area of Leeds allegedly began last night after social services in the city removed all four children from a family.

Tonight, hundreds of locals have descended onto the streets once again. This time in much more peaceful demonstrations.

In videos shared widely on social media, members of the public can be heard chanting 'please bring the kids back' - in reference to the children taken by social services yesterday.





Meanwhile, harrowing video footage showed a police officer hauling a young boy out of a house and bundling him into a van.



Witnesses said the removal of the child was the flashpoint which kicked off the rioting last night, with the disorder lasting for hours.

Photos from today show tensions rising in the city as locals appeared to argue with police while surrounded by a scene of chaos from the night before.

Families looked on at the immense clean up taking place to clear away the smouldering wreckage of a bus set alight in Harehills.

The intensity of the violence was deemed so severe that firefighters refused to enter the street for hours amid fears crews would be attacked.

West Yorkshire Police today said that a number of people had been arrested following the violence and warned 'further arrests will be made over the next few days'.
