Police have been attacked for a second night in Londonderry by masked youths.

A PSNI spokesperson said: “Police are dealing with ongoing disorder in the Nailors Row area of Derry/Londonderry this evening.”

“A number of missiles, including masonry and petrol bombs, have been thrown towards officers.”

The public is being advised to avoid the area.

On Monday night fireworks and masonry were thrown at officers in the same area of the city, injuring three officers.

Two were struck by masonry, while a third was hit by a firework.

Two teenage boys aged 13 and 18 were arrested on suspicion of riotous behaviour and were later released on bail pending further enquiries.

Police confirmed that the disorder on Monday was not racially motivated.
