Community spirit shows Hull trouble ‘does not reflect city’

Shop owner Mr Mohamad, who was caught up in the violence when it moved to Spring Bank, said: “It was not very good here.

“All the people were coming here to shoplift and making big trouble.

“A lot of people came out for fighting.

“Thank you for the clean-up. It’s good for the city and I will help the team by giving them water or anything they want.”

About 50 to 100 people turned out to help with the clear-up as signs of Saturday’s disorder were still evident.

Shops remained cordoned off by police in the centre with shattered fronts and glass on the pavements.

Council workers began the process in the city centre as shop owners tried to get inside and assess the damage.

Lucia Thomson joined the clean-up operation as she said she felt it was important to show there is a “better way of communicating anger”.

“I was really sad about it and I didn’t agree with what they were doing,” she said.
