Man appears in court over Hull riot

A West Yorkshire man who took part in last summer's Hull riot will be sentenced on 7 March.

Ashley Smith, 26, admitted violent disorder and four counts of burglary at Hull Magistrates' Court on 22 January.

On Wednesday, Smith, of Quarry Lane, Halifax, was told the sentencing date when he appeared briefly at Grimsby Crown Court.

A number of people have been given prison sentences after violence broke out following a demonstration involving anti-immigration protesters in the city centre on 3 August.
