My personal view

·         The UK riot occurred on the 6^th of august 2011 after the death of mark Duggan, 29

·         It occurred in Tottenham  and later spread to other parts of UK

·         It was a peaceful protest until  criminal were involved

·         Economic instability also triggered the riot

·         The riot lasted for four days

·         Looting and destruction of properties

·         About 200 million worth of properties loosed

·         More than 1500 people were arrested, most of those arrested had criminal record

·         The country was on  stand-still during the riot
