A man from Stoke-on-Trent has pleaded guilty to violent disorder.
Simon Beech, 36, of Chell Heath, appeared at Stoke-on-Trent Crown Court on Monday following riots in the city centre on 3 August.
The disorder broke out across the UK during the summer after disinformation was spread about the alleged perpetrator involved in the murder of three girls in Southport in July.
Beech is due to be sentenced later this month.
