On Monday, May 22, riots broke out in the Ely area of Cardiff following a serious crash which killed two teenage boys, named locally as Kyrees Sullivan, 16, and 15-year-old Harvey Evans.
Police were called to Snowden Road at around 6pm on Monday night before hundreds of people gathered in the area. Cars were torched and missiles thrown at police officers as hundreds gathered near the scene of the crash.
South Wales Police said previously that the collision had "already occurred" when officers arrived. But Chief Superintendent Martyn Stone said on Tuesday evening that CCTV footage showing an electric bike being followed by a police van moments before the crash had emerged and would "form part of the investigation".
