One officer suffered a serious facial injury after being hit by a bottle that was thrown from the crowd, as breakaway protesters breached an order requiring the demonstration to end at 8pm.
Three police officers were injured and 40 people were arrested after disorder broke out at a protest near Downing Street on Tuesday night. One officer suffered a serious facial injury after she was hit by a bottle thrown from the crowd, while two officers had minor injuries after being 'assaulted', the Met Police has said. The suspect who threw the bottle has not been identified but officers are investigating, the force added.
The Met said in a statement: 'Officers engaged extensively before making a number of arrests for failing to comply with conditions. As they moved in, some in the crowd resisted physically, requiring officers to use force to extract those who had been arrested.' The force said some protesters then set off on a breakaway march down nearby Bridge Street, outside Westminster Tube station, where officers put up cordons to detain the group.
