A man has been jailed for violent disorder during a riot over the summer.

Alfie Holdsworth, 20, from Gateshead, was sentenced to 14 months in prison at Teesside Crown Court.

Cleveland Police said he had been seen kicking a lone victim twice while he was on the ground, during a night of disorder in Middlesbrough on 4 August.

The unrest had spread from an afternoon protest at the town's cenotaph, and was described by officers at the time as "staggering".
