An illegal rave in White City, West London ended in clashes with police. At one point the scale of the violence overwhelmed the officers, forcing them to call in reinforcements from other parts of the estate. Get more on this story:

As officers pushed back against the crowd with their shields, they broke up into small groups, running around the estate and throwing missiles at police vans.

At one point the scale of the violence overwhelmed the officers, forcing them to call in reinforcements from other parts of the estate.One man who had his car window smashed as he attempted to leave the area said he knew the party would get out of control. "I just can't understand why the police don't just get them off the streets. It's all mad," he shouted from his front door.

The impromptu nature of this event left police unable to keep up with the partygoers as a cordon was erected around what appeared to be the site of the unlicensed rave. It left seven officers injured and was one of dozens of illegal parties in the capital city on Friday night.

'We weren't doing anything wrong' well clearly you were otherwise they wouldn't be there. Gatherings over 30 are illegal and that was announced before your party.

Water cannons, tear gas, rubber bullets, tasers, arrests and jail - police blood on your hands SadiqKhan

They said they were not doing any wrong so the person sky spoke to when he was seen throwing bricks at the police wasn't doing anything wrong wow that's amazing

In a nutshell...selfish bastards! 😡

Probably from sprained ankles as they were running away

What is Khan doing in London to stop these illegal rave parties - nothing! They will only have themselves to blame when the local lockdown starts in London!

Why not just leave them alone. They only having a party. Pubs open now to so what's the problem

The ravers as per usual saying ' we wern't doing anything'. You were asked to disperse from a illegal rave. You then attacked the ineffective police. So you were doing something. Strange how police are in riot gear for all white protesters, raves. But with black people - NOT.🤔

People acting like its something new, in the 90's these happened all time. Now the public want everyone shot with machine guns for having an 'rave' get a grip.

All the usual suspects 👊💦💦💦

That’s a long description to explain the police ran away.

A high percentage seem to be black youths. Are they exempt from criticism these days?

These people should be locked up they think there above the law and risking peoples lives and there own families lifes

Pathetic policing standards in UK! Nobody fears law in UK! pritipatel

The usual suspects need teaching a lesson!

Nice to see msm covering it

Other part of the estate -10 for basic error Where did concast go so wrong
