THE Met is appealing for the public’s help to identify 11 people following violent disorder at protests in central London on Saturday, 13 September.

Throughout the day, there were several incidents across central London, the majority linked to the ‘Unite the Kingdom’ protest in and around Whitehall. Officers made 24 arrests on the day and have since carried out enquiries into other offences.

Officers want to speak to these further people in connection with a range of public order and assault on emergency services offences.

Detective Chief Inspector Natalie Norris, from the Met’s Public Order Crime Team, said: “Public order policing doesn’t end when the event is over and since Saturday, our teams have been working to identify those involved in any criminality.

“Our post-event investigation is ongoing and officers have trawled through hundreds of hours of CCTV footage and continue to review evidence to help with enquiries.
“We have identified a number of people we want to speak to in connection with a range of offences – and we are asking for the public’s help to track them down.
“As with any major event, we know people may have travelled from outside of London, so we’re asking for people across the country to take a look at those pictured and get in touch if they recognise anyone.”

Anyone with information, or footage that may help us identify the individuals, is asked to call 101 quoting CAD 4624/15SEP25. You can also tweet @MetCC.
