The murder of 18-year-old student Henry Nowak sparked violent clashes between protesters and police in Southampton on Tuesday night, leaving 11 officers and a police dog injured, as public anger intensified over the handling of the case by police.
Two people have been arrested so far, with authorities warning that further arrests are likely as investigations continue, the BBC reported.
Nowak, a British-Polish teenager from Chafford Hundred in Essex, was pursuing a degree in accountancy and finance at the University of Southampton. He had recently completed his first term before he was fatally stabbed.
Protests descend into violence
Hundreds of people gathered outside Southampton Central Police Station before moving towards the Portswood area, near the home of convicted killer Vickrum Digwa.
The protest escalated into disorder as some protesters hurled bottles, cans, chairs, flares and other objects at riot police.
