Unfortunatly, for the people of symidon who were not involved in riots, todays holiday has been a terrible day, with low numbers of riot police, it looks like a long time before the situation is clear again. My advice, is lock all your windows and doors and stay inside, I'll see you tonight at 6:00PM for more updates on this and other stories. Stay Safe.
