Police announced that they arrested 10 Swindon Town fans yesterday in connection with disorder following the Swindon Town home match against Bradford City.
Those held were arrested on suspicion of violent disorder, as part of an ongoing operation throughout Swindon after home supporters were seen to attack the coach carrying away fans following the game on October 23rd.
More arrests related to this disorder are expected to follow today.
Inspector James Neighbour said: “The sort of violent behaviour that was witnessed following this match is absolutely unacceptable.
“We are determined to robustly tackle such behaviour and ensure that those involved answer for their actions.
“Football related violence has no place in the game and we are working closely with Swindon Town Football Club to ensure that these sorts of incidents, which can ruin the experience for real fans, are stamped out.”
Anyone with information about the disorder on October 23rd, near the Magic Roundabout, are asked to call police on 101.
