Protestors run wild at the northeast English city of Sunderland on Friday following Monday's killings of three children in Southport. 

Anti-immigrants threw stones at the police at riot gear near a mosque while protestors brutally attacked, started fires at the officials and set cars alight in Sunderland, the BBC claimed. 

 "The safety of the public is our utmost priority and when we became aware that a protest had been planned, we ensured there was an increased policing presence in the city," Northumbria Police Chief superintendent  Helena Barron issued a statement about the ongoing unrest. 

It further read, "During the course of the evening those officers were met with serious and sustained levels of violence, which is utterly deplorable."

Barron added, "Three police officers were injured and rushed to the hospital for treatment and eight protestors have so far been arrested for violent disorder and burglary." 

Several anti-racism counter-protests were also planned across the UK this weekend and the British police was out in full force in the city with mosque tightening security but riotors attacked. 

There is no end to the brutality going on around the world ranging from Israeli-Palestine conflicts, Southport killings to UK's Sunderland on fire.
