Bricks, bottles and fireworks thrown at police in fresh ‘Kill The Bill’ demonstrations

Footage shows a firework exploding yards away from a police horse

Police were targeted with bricks, bottles and fireworks amidst a third 'Kill the Bill' demonstration in Bristol on Friday night. Over 1,000 people gathered in the city centre for the rally, with officers struck with missiles after attempts to disperse the crowds at around 10pm. Police have added that only a minority of protesters displayed hostility towards them and that ten arrests were made. Boris Johnson has since condemned the violence, describing them as "disgraceful attacks". "Last night saw disgraceful attacks against police officers in Bristol,"  the Prime Minister tweeted. "Our officers should not have to face having bricks, bottles and fireworks being thrown at them by a mob intent on violence and causing damage  to property." https://twitter.com/BorisJohnson/status/1375741247470632960 Footage below shows a firework being set off a matter of yards from a police horse, causing the animal to panic. https://twitter.com/K9Finn/status/1375707752232853506
