Jackie Miller first woman jailed over Hull riot

The judge heard Ben Chapman, 20, of Stockleigh Close, Hull, and Joshua Hobman, 33, of Wenlock Street, Hull, also threw missiles at police.

Chapman, who was serving a community order for assaulting an emergency worker at the time of the unrest, repeatedly kicked a bin that was fixed to the ground in an attempt to remove it in a bid to use it as “a missile” but was “unsuccessful”.

The 20-year-old was sentenced to 28 months detention in a young offenders institution for violent disorder, in addition to serving the remaining four months of his previous offence. In total, he was jailed for 32 months.

Hobman, who aimed a punch at an officer’s shield and threw a drinks can at police, was jailed for two years.

But the judge said his sentence would be reduced because he was the sole custodian of his nine-year-old son.
