THIRD NIGHT OF UNREST IN NORTHERN IRELAND

A leisure centre's been set on fire in Northern Ireland, in a third night of unrest.

Police in Ballymena have had petrol bombs and masonry thrown at them as disorder also spread to other towns including Coleraine and Larne - in what officials have called "racist thuggery".

Violence initially grew from a protest about an alleged sexual assault.

Deputy leader of the Alliance Party of Northern Ireland Eóin Tennyson says the unrest needs to stop.

IN: 'We have...
OUT: ...Ireland.'
DUR: 30 seconds
