This is the dramatic moment cops kicked down a front door before hauling out a riot suspect in her underwear.
Video shows how police broke down a door to arrest a woman who is suspected of violent disorder following a protest in Sunderland on Thursday (1/8). In footage released by Northumbria Police, officers are seen kicking in a glass door at an address in the city on Saturday morning.
A female officer is seen in the video (click to play above) thumping on the door shouting: “Police, open the door!” while her colleagues scale the garden fence. The female officer then tells another cop: “There’s someone in, can you put the door through?”
A male officer then boots the glass panel before cops swarm inside the end-terraced property. Minutes later a red-haired woman wearing a pink and black lacy nightie is led out in handcuffs.
Police say a 43-year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of violent disorder. Another 55-year-old man was also arrested on suspicion of provoking violence.
Chief Superintendent Mark Hall warned troublemakers: “Make no mistake, if you were involved, expect to be met with the full force of the law.”
