The crowd descended late that Sunday morning. Up to 200 attacked the property, smashing windows, lighting fires and hurling missiles at the vastly outnumbered lines of police stopping them from storming the hotel to reach the residents cowering inside. Footage from the body-worn camera of a young female officer, PC Clarke, showed Guest at the front of the crowd as he aggressively approached a line of officers five times in succession. On his sixth foray he grabbed at a riot shield, causing an officer to slip down a grassy bank to jeers from the crowd. PC Clarke was “terrified” as missiles rained down.
Stuart Bolton from the New Holland area of Humberside and Elliott Wragg from Assembly Way, Barnsley, entered the dock behind glass. Both had pleaded guilty to violent disorder at the hotel, with a maximum sentence of five years. With a third off for early guilty pleas, they faced theoretical maximums of three years and four months.
