A 27-year-old man has been charged following widespread disorder in west Belfast on Saturday night.
He is due to appear before Belfast Magistrates’ Court on August 14, charged with disorderly behaviour.
A 22-year-old man also arrested in connection with a serious assault involving iron bars, which left a man needing hospital treatment on the same night, has been released on police bail.
Meanwhile, a 14-year-old boy was arrested on Sunday on suspicion of a number of offences, including riot and disorderly behaviour.
After being interviewed by police, he was released pending a report to the Public Prosecution Service.
Police say they intend to make further arrests over Saturday’s disorder, which involved disruption and violence with many youths riding scramblers illegally around the wider Stewartstown Road and Falls Road areas of west Belfast.
The PSNI said large crowds of up to 100 people gathered, many aged in their early teens, throwing masonry at police with 11 police vehicles damaged – 10 Land Rovers and one car – and one officer was assaulted.
Patrols are set to continue in the Stewartstown Road and other areas to detect those riding scramblers illegally.
Police have appealed to parents and guardians to warn young people of the dangers of becoming involved in illegal activities.
Chief Inspector Philip Robinson said: “Our targeted patrols will also continue in the Stewartstown Road and other areas to detect offenders on bikes who are driving illegally.
“We would also reiterate our appeal to parents and guardians to speak to your young people and warn them of the dangers of getting involved in behaviour which could result in them obtaining a criminal record.”
