Yvette Cooper met the Chief Constable of West Yorkshire Police after a bus was set on fire and a police car was flipped over when trouble flared in the Harehills area of the city Thursday.

Speaking at the city’s Elland Road police station she said those responsible should feel the "full force of the law" for what she described as "audacious criminality".

The visit came as police said five people had been arrested in connection with the trouble so far and urged those involved to hand themselves in.
