Images Released Over March Disorder
Detectives from Operation Brontide have released 18 images of people they want to identify following the serious disorder and violence that was committed in the West End of London on Saturday 26 March. This disorder followed the peaceful TUC March in central London.
The pictures are taken from a range of sources, including CCTV in the areas. They include those wanted in connection with acts of violence toward private and public property as well as officers in the Trafalgar Square; Piccadilly and Oxford Street areas.
Detective Chief Superintendent Matthew Horne, leading the investigation, said: "We are working tirelessly to identify those responsible for the appalling acts of criminal behaviour on the day of the TUC March.
"The vast majority of people who came to London that day did so peacefully, but a significant minority didn't - they came to cause violence and damage. There is an extensive operation to identify these people.
"With the help of the public they will be called to account for their actions on that day. I would urge anyone who recognises these individuals to contact my team."
There were 201 arrests made on the day of the march (145 in connection with the Fortnum & Mason incident). Some 56 officers were injured, with 11 requiring hospital treatment.
