The 19 yobs locked up so far at crown court following the July 31 Hartlepool riot

The courts are continuing to jail yobs for their role in the Hartlepool riot on July 31.

Nineteen louts have been handed custodial sentences after they pleaded guilty at crown court to committing violent disorder in the Murray Street area of town.

Businesses and homes were attacked, bricks and rocks were hurled at police officers and a police car was set alight.

All of the defendants were locked up at Teesside Crown Court unless otherwise stated.

With Cleveland Police still sifting through video footage from the disturbance, we will update this article if more people are eventually sentenced.
