Cars damaged in scenes of public disorder in Derry last night

Cars have been damaged and burning barricades put up – during disorder in Derry last night.

The trouble broke out after authorities removed pallets from a Republican bonfire in Galliagh earlier in the day – because of safety concerns.

Police issued a warning to drivers and the public to avoid the area.

Crowds have since dispersed – and officers say they’re continuing to monitor the situation.
