Three men who admitted taking part in violent disorder in Southport and Liverpool in the days after three girls were killed in a knife attack have been jailed.<\/p>\n

There has been widespread unrest across the country since the killings of Bebe King, six, Elsie Dot Stancombe, seven, and Alice da Silva Aguiar, nine, at a holiday club on 29 July. <\/p>\n

Derek Drummond, 58, was given a three-year sentence for assaulting an emergency worker during the violence in Southport.<\/p>\n

Declan Geiran, 29, was jailed for two years and five months for violent disorder and arson of a police vehicle, while Liam James Riley, 40, was jailed for one-and-a-half years for violent disorder and racially aggravated abusive behaviour.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The violent disorder which spread across the country began in Southport<\/figcaption><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

Jonathan Egan of the Crown Prosecution Service said the trio’s actions “would have caused panic, revulsion and chaos in their local communities”.<\/p>\n

\u201cRiley, Drummond and Geiran mistakenly thought they would escape justice.<\/p>\n

“They now face an extended period of time behind bars, and their criminal convictions will stay with them forever.”<\/p>\n

Drummond of Pool Street, Liverpool had previously pleaded guilty to the offences which included punching a police officer, the Crown Prosecution Service said.<\/p>\n

Riley, of Walton Road, Kirkdale, Liverpool, and Geiran, of Kelso Road, Liverpool, were sentenced for their parts in the unrest in Liverpool city centre, with Geiran also admitting to arson of a police vehicle.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Further suspects are also set to appear in court in connection with the disorder across the north-west of England.<\/p>\n

Four men, aged 27, 28, 41 and 42, are due to appear at Manchester Magistrates’ Court accused of taking part in violent disorder in Manchester Piccadilly Gardens on Saturday. <\/p>\n

Another man, 32, is accused of distributing and recording of visual images which were threatening, abusive or insulting intending to stir up racial hatred on Monday in Stockport. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
