DTN News - LONDON RIOTS NEWS: Hooded Thugs Went On The Rampage In Hackney
(NSI News Source Info) TORONTO, Canada / LONDON, U.K. - August 11, 2011: A hooded youth walks past a burning vehicle in Hackney on August 8, 2011 in London, England.
Groups of youths have clashed with police in London for the past three nights, breaking into businesses and setting cars ablaze, as authorities try to tighten their grip on the situation.
Prime Minister David Cameron said Wednesday "a fight back is under way" to restore law and order to Britain's streets but rioting, looting and arson by gangs of youths spread from London to other cities overnight.
Youths fought running battles with police in the northern cities of Manchester and Liverpool as well as in the Midlands.
They smashed shop windows, carted off televisions and designer clothes, and torched buildings as police armed with shields and batons struggled to maintain control.
