Water cannon fired in latest disorder after Belfast knife attack

A water cannon has been deployed to disperse a large crowd after a second night of disorder in Northern Ireland following the Belfast knife attack.

Riot police came under sustained attack from a group throwing bricks, bottles and pieces of wood at a major roundabout to the north-west of Belfast.

Additional officers were drafted in but Wednesday’s disorder was not on the same scale as Tuesday’s violence.
