Rashan Charles death: Family urge peace on Hackney streets - BBC News

The family of a black man who died after being apprehended by police has appealed for peace after violent protests in the wake of his death.

Rashan Charles, 20, was wrestled to the ground in Dalston, east London, on 22 July, and died about an hour later.

On Friday, clashes broke out in Hackney as protesters blocked part of Kingsland Road and set mattresses alight.

A spokesman for Mr Charles's family said they understood the anger but called for "dignified" protest.

"Burning down homes will not give justice," he said.

Mr Charles was pursued by officers and became ill after trying to swallow an object, the Met has said.

He died soon after in hospital. The Independent Police Complaints Commission is investigating.

Yep, looks like just an excuse to riot.

I read the article and didn't find any mention as to what the reason was for the rioting. Their favorite drug dealer died? Ok, let's riot.

At least the morons here in the US have a reason usually (cop shoots unarmed black man, etc).

Maybe they all sobered up and didn't like the fact their access was gone.
