Three officers injured, eight arrested after UK riot

Eight people have been arrested and three police officers taken to hospital following rioting in Sunderland.

Protesters attacked police and started fires as violence following Monday's killing of three children in northwest England spread to another northern city.

Anti-immigrant demonstrators threw stones at police in riot gear near a mosque in the city before overturning vehicles, setting a car alight and starting a fire next to a police office, the BBC said.
