Violence erupted in east London last night at an angry protest over the death of Rashan Charles, who died after being chased by police.

A large gang of protesters - many of whom had their faces covered - clashed with riot police as tensions came to a head in Dalston.

The group of masked demonstrators blocked busy Kingsland Road before hurling bottles, stones and other objects at police and starting a fire in the middle of the road.

Two helicopters, riot police and horses were drafted in as officers with shields were seen rushing into the violence in an attempt to bring it under control.
