Four arrested after violence outside Nuneaton Asda

Disorder broke out outside Asda on Newtown Road on Friday, police said

Officers investigating "terrifying" violence have arrested four people, including a 13-year-old boy.

One man was reported to be carrying a large blade during disorder outside Asda in Newtown Road, Nuneaton, at about 17:00 BST on Friday.

The 13-year old and a man, 18, both from Bedworth were arrested on Sunday on suspicion of violent disorder.

A 14-year-old boy from Coventry and a man, 18, from Bulkington, arrested on Saturday, have been released on bail.

Det Sgt Emma Mackay from Warwickshire Police said: "This was a terrifying incident in broad daylight that left members of the public shocked."

The force said extra officers had been in the area over the weekend to help prevent any further trouble.

Det Ch Insp Dave Andrews said the level of disorder in the town over the past week had been "totally unacceptable" adding the force understood the level of concern amongst local people.

Earlier in the week two 15-year-old boys were arrested after teenage girls were threatened with blades in a spate of linked robberies.

They have been bailed until next month pending further inquiries.
