Police car flips during 'disturbance' in busy streets.

The streets were bustling with crowds of people, going about their day in the Harehills area of Leeds. However, the peaceful atmosphere was soon disrupted as a police car was overturned amidst a scene of disorder. The incident occurred on Luxor Street at around 5pm, when police were called in response to an ongoing disturbance involving agency workers and children.

As the situation escalated, the decision was made to move the children and agency workers to a safe location while the police continued to handle the chaos on the street. Shocking footage captured by witnesses and shared on social media platforms like X and TikTok showed a group of individuals, including children, pelting rocks at a police car and even pushing it onto its side. In another video, a young man was seen jumping onto the bonnet of another police car.

In response to the situation, West Yorkshire Police closed off some roads and urged people to avoid the area. Drone footage captured the scene, showing a line of officers standing shoulder to shoulder, attempting to control the situation. Fortunately, no injuries were reported and the police are still investigating the incident.

Salma Arif, a councillor in Leeds, shared a video on social media alongside a police officer, urging people to stay safe and avoid the area. She stated, "There is an ongoing situation currently in Harehills, we're aware of that, the police are here. We are asking everybody in the area to please stay at home at this moment in time."

The police officer, Inspector Nicholls, also gave a message, saying, "If you could just stay where you are, stay in your houses while we manage this incident. If you are in the crowd, I would ask you to go home please so we can keep everybody safe."

For the latest updates on the situation, people were encouraged to follow The Agency on social media and sign up for daily push alerts. As the police continue to handle the situation, it is important for everyone to remain calm and stay safe.
