MORE arrests have been made following last week's outbreak of violence and looting across Redbridge.

This now takes the number of those arrested, to 56 and the number of people charged, to 40.

One arrest has been made in connection with a burglary at a jewellers store in George Lane, South Woodford, which was looted on Monday night.

The evening's disorder began in Ilford before spreading to Woodford Green where a Woodford Carpet Shop, in the High Road, was torched in the early hours of Tuesday.

A Nationwide bank in George Lane also had its windows smashed on the same evening.

The disorder with spread across London and other parts of the UK broke out on Saturday, following the death of a man who was shot by police in Tottenham on Thursday August 4.
