David Hill has pleaded guilty
David Hill has appeared in court in a red shirt and black trousers, charged with violent disorder on William Brown Street, Liverpool, on August 3.
He is represented by Sinead Fearon. The prosecution is Michael O’Kane.
When asked for his plea, he replied: “Guilty sir.”
Mr O’Kane said: “On Saturday, August 3, violent disorder started in the city centre. During the disturbance, unlawful violence ensued, businesses looted and officers were injured. CCTV and social media posts have been considered by police. The defendant has been identified as part of a group that was involved in the disorder. The defendant can be seen kicking the left wing mirror of a police vehicle while others, currently untraced, set the vehicle alight.”
Ms Fearon said: “It’s a matter for the crown court.”
District Judge Timothy Boswell said: “For his part in the violent disorder that took place in the city centre on August 3, the seriousness of the offence means there’s a very real prospect of immediate custody in this case.”
He added that Hill, who has 71 previous convictions for 122 offences, had shown willingness to take part in further disorder which police had been made aware of, and so remanded him in custody. Hill will appear at Liverpool Crown Court on August 13.
