Four girls as young as 15 are being held in police custody after teenagers stormed the McDonald’s Marble Arch during a night of violence in London.

The girls, all aged between 15 and 17, are being questioned about the disorder, which happened after a water fight in Hyde Park turned into a "riot".

Three males aged 16, 17 and 18 were also arrested and released on bail.

The teens were arrested after police released photos of suspects linked to the disorder that saw three people, including a police officer, stabbed.

Police appeal for Marble Arch disorder

1/5

A second officer suffered injuries from a flying bottle as officers tried to contain aggressive crowds in Hyde Park on July 19.

The crowds spilled into the McDonald’s, where they jumped over the counter and "trashed" the fast food restaurant whilst terrified staff reportedly hid.

Seven of the suspects pictured in the appeal are yet to be traced.

Police have released further images of people in connection with the incident and are appealing for anyone with information to come forward.

Contact police on 020 8785 8244 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
