Leeds, West Yorkshire, UK

A police car was flipped on to its side after unrest broke out in Leeds on Thursday evening, and local people were advised to stay at home.

Footage on social media appeared to show people throwing objects at the police vehicle before it was pushed over in Harehills, just east of the city centre.

Videos posted on X appeared to show vehicles on fire including a bus.

By 10.30pm, police had left the scene but a helicopter remained in the sky above Harehills.

A bus was set alight on Foundry Approach and was still burning with flames towering above the red brick houses and thick black smoke could be seen for miles. . The occasional bang could be heard from the blaze as people seemingly threw explosives, and small crowds of people ran screaming each time an explosion occurred.

Another smaller fire in a road junction on Harehills Lane was kept alight, with people throwing debris on to it.
