Police chief vows to find attackers

Northern Ireland police chief Matt Baggott yesterday vowed to hunt down and imprison scores of Protestant militants after they attacked and wounded 56 officers protecting a parade by Irish Republican Army supporters.

Friday night’s outbreak of violence in downtown Belfast opened a tense weekend involving disputed parades by both the Irish Catholic and British Protestant extremes of society. Senior police said Protestant extremists encouraged by social media messages rallied to block the parade in downtown Royal Avenue.
