A man has been jailed for violent disorder in the Bristol Kill the Bill riot. A video shows Richard Fox shouting abuse and knocking officers off their feet during the riot in 2021.
The 32-year-old, of Picton Street in Montpelier, pulled officers into the crowd during a skirmish between police and protesters in the city centre on March 21. He was also seen kicking some officers while others had their property, including helmets, batons and shields taken.
He was sentenced to two-and-a-half years in prison at Bristol Crown Court today (Monday, May 22). Footage released by Avon and Somerset Police shows Fox with his hood up as he engaged with officers.
