Youths Attack Local Police Officers On Sunday 26 October a group of around 60 youths attacked police officers in the Castlereagh Street area of East Belfast. Chief Inspector David Moore, Area Commander for East Belfast says: “Shortly after 7.00pm last night (Sunday 26 October,) a group of around 60 youths gathered in the Castlereagh Street area. Given the proximity to an interface area and concerns that were expressed by local residents, local neighbourhood policing officers deployed in the area. “These officers then became the subject of attack. A range of missiles including bricks, blocks and bottles were thrown at the officers. One of the local Neighbourhood Sergeants was hit with masonry on the shoulder and injured. The windscreen of one of the police landrovers was also smashed. “This behaviour is totally unacceptable and a police investigation has begun to identify youths involved. “Since April 2014, there have been approximately 60 arrests for interface related disorder in East Belfast.” https://youtube/watch?v=qvkzSmHadLA
