Police have released images of five more suspects as they continue to hunt those involved in the Middlesbrough riots.

The images of four men and one woman are from footage that was taken in the town on Sunday, August 4. It comes after violence erupted in the town centre following a far-right 'protest' which saw cars torched, windows smashed and missiles thrown at police.

As part of Cleveland Police’s investigation – codenamed Operation Acorn – and led by detectives in the Homicide and Major Enquiry Team (HMET) they are seeking to identify all the individuals.

In August, detective Chief Inspector Sarah Robinson, who is leading the investigation said: “We will continue to relentlessly pursue those suspected of causing serious violence and disorder in Middlesbrough. A number of people have been arrested, charged and sentenced and our investigation continues. We have now released further images of people we’d like to speak to.

“I’d like to thank the community for their support and for all the information they have provided us so far. Please continue to submit information to us. If you recognise any of the people in the photographs below or similarly if you see yourself, please get in touch with us as soon as possible.”
