Video footage was released today (28 May) of clashes between protesters and police in London at an anti-austerity march after the State Opening of Parliament yesterday.

In the images filmed by Reuters, demonstrators clad in balaclavas and Guy Fawkes masks, synonymous with the Anonymous protest group, grapple and shove with police officers. Scotland Yard said three people – including a 17-year-old – had been arrested on suspicion of assault.

A man, whose age has not been given, was arrested on suspicion of violent disorder and possession of an offensive weapon. A 45-year-old man was also arrested on suspicion of violent disorder in relation to an incident in Whitehall on 9 May.
