Fireworks And Bottles Thrown at Police in Ballymena in Second Night of Unrest
Officers deploy water cannon in Northern Ireland to quell feral violence that erupted after vigil for girl allegedly sexually assaulted by Migrants The Guardian 11 JUN 2025 ![]() ![]() Police fired plastic baton rounds at some of those gathered and also used a water cannon to disperse the crowd. The violence erupted after a vigil for a teenage girl who was allegedly sexually assaulted by two 14 year old boys. The boys had appeared in court charged with attempted rape. A Romanian interpreter read them the charges. PSNI officers accompanied by dog units moved protesters away from Clonavon Terrace towards the junction of Bridge Street and North Street. Fifteen police officers were injured and several homes attacked on Monday during what has been called a mob fury of racially motivated disturbances in the Northern Irish town. Some people in a crowd threw petrol bombs, fireworks, heavy masonry and bricks at police and tried to burn the homes of a handful of foreign families in the County Antrim town. On Tuesday, the PSNI said it had made a third arrest in connection with the incident and reiterated a public appeal for information. It said a 28 year old man had been unconditionally released from police custody after questioning. ![]() Protesters blocking a street during an anti-immigration demonstration in Ballymena, Northern Ireland, on 10 June. |
