Appeal to identify football fans after disorder at Millwall v Birmingham

Police are appealing for the public's help in identifying 11 people in relation to disorder following the Millwall v Birmingham match on 9 March.

Several officers were injured during the disorder outside The Den and video footage has subsequently been reviewed to identify those involved. Police are now releasing a number of images of people, who are all believed to be Birmingham supporters.

A 29-year-old man was arrested on Tuesday, 26 March in Birmingham on suspicion of affray by Met officers, with the assistance of West Midlands Police officers. He was taken into custody in Birmingham before being released on bail.

Detective Constable Phil Dickinson, of the Met's Public Order Crime Team, said: “The vast majority of football supporters are there to enjoy the game, with a small number spoiling the atmosphere for others.

"The Met’s unit that deals with disorder at football matches will prosecute those looking to engage in criminality before, during or after fixtures in London.”

Anyone able to identify anyone in the images is asked to contact Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111, 100 per cent anonymously, with the reference number of the image which you wish to identify.
