Anti-migrant riots spread in Northern Ireland as mobs attack police | BBC News
A third night of violence broke out in Northern Ireland as a leisure centre in the town of Larne providing emergency shelter for families who had fled the violence came under attack.
It follows rioting in Ballymena by masked men who attacked police and set homes and cars on fire. Police condemned their actions as “racist thuggery” targeting ethnic minorities and police officers and said they were investigating “racially-motivated hate crimes”. 32 officers were injured in the violence.
The disorder began following a protest over an alleged sexual assault in Ballymena.
Mid and East Antrim Borough Council confirmed the leisure centre attacked in Larne had provided emergency shelter for families in urgent need following disturbances in Ballymena.

Iconic country musician Dolly Parton has died at the age of 80, her family announced on her social media.
“Sadness lies with us, not with Dolly,” Parton’s nephew Brian Seaver said in a video announcement.
In a seven-decade career, Parton won 10 Grammy awards, sold more than 100 million records worldwide, and wrote in excess of 3,000 songs.
Parton took her writing seriously, and considered herself a songwriter over everything else. “It’s my way of expressing myself,” she said. “It’s my therapy.”
She was also a savvy businesswoman who wasn’t afraid to make tough decisions. Armed with a quick wit and southern charm, she took control of her show business career that spanned more than 60 years.

Russia has warned the UK of “consequences” following confirmation that British-made drones were used in recent strikes on military and industrial targets in Russia.
In a statement, the Russian embassy to the UK accused Britain of “deliberately opting for an escalation of the Ukraine crisis”, adding that “the deeper its involvement in the conflict… the higher the price it will pay”.
It did not elaborate on the type of threat Moscow was considering.
Ukraine has stepped up attacks on Moscow and elsewhere deep inside Russia, particularly targeting oil refineries and logistics sites for its key online retailer Wildberries.
A spokesperson for the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) said they stood “shoulder to shoulder” with Ukraine.
