Man arrested after bin is thrown at loyalist marching band in Belfast

A man has been arrested after an altercation between a resident and a loyalist marching band in Belfast.

Footage circulating online appears to show a resident hurling a bin at the band as it passed by the house he was in.

Members of the band quickly dropped their instruments and jumped over the fence to the residence as the man ran back inside.

One band member then appeared to smash a window of the house.

Police rushed over, and the band returned to the street.

Belfast district commander Chief Superintendent Darrin Jones said: “We are aware of footage circulating online involving a number of parties in the Agincourt Avenue area of south Belfast.

“We have arrested a 46-year-old man on suspicion of a range of offences including assault and disorderly behaviour.

“Detectives are currently investigating other potential offences and persons.”
