Violent football fans arrested

Several people have been arrested in Devon for football violence following an incident in Exeter last month involving Grecian and Plymouth Argyle Fans.

The trouble, on Good Friday, was committed by what police are calling Exeter City and Argyle 'risk groups' and it resulted in a serious disorder incident.

Following ongoing investigations 11 people have this month been arrested, seven of which have been bailed and four have been released whilst further enquiries are carried out.

Devon and Cornwall Police have said that football violence will not be tolerated and they will continue to use banning orders where necessary.
