Last night, the Greater Manchester Police expressed their gratitude towards residents who peacefully expressed their views. Thanks to a proactive policing operation, suspects were detained with minimal disruption to the public. Seven arrests were made in connection with last weekend’s disorder.
A police spokesperson commended the majority of law-abiding residents, businesses, and visitors for their support in keeping the communities safe. Despite the evening passing without significant disorder, the police remain vigilant and committed to ensuring that anyone engaging in criminal activities faces consequences.
In these uncertain times, the police are working closely with the communities to minimize disruptions. They have noticed an increase in misinformation online, but are proud that communities are coming together to combat this and support the officers on the ground.
Following the recent events in Southport, where violent disorder broke out, the police have been utilizing all their resources to support the communities, including residents, businesses, and faith leaders. It is crucial for the public to report any online information regarding possible disorder to the police for appropriate action.
