Violence in Derry on Easter Monday night

A 59-year-old man has been arrested by police investigating the rioting that took place in the predominantly unionist Tullyally estate in Derry at Easter this year.

He has been charged with riot, assault on police and theft.

The suspect is due to appear at Derry Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday, July 14 for a first remand hearing.

He is the sixth person to have been charged in relation to the serious public disorder that took place in Tullyally at Easter.

Chief Superintendent Darrin Jones said: “This disorder that occurred over a number of nights had a significant impact on the local community.

“On one night damage was caused to a care home resulting in a night of fear and distress for those vulnerable residents.

“On responding to calls from the community police came under attack from masonry, bottles, petrol bombs and fireworks leaving a dozen officers with injuries.

“Over the last few months detectives have arrested and charged six people suspected of being involved.

“Disorder of any nature impacts negatively on the local community and ties up police resources that are needed elsewhere.

“We will continue to work with the community to prevent further incidents of this nature.”
