NextImg:Manchester police hit by furious protests as hundreds gather to express fury at head kick video

Hundreds gathered outside a police station in Greater Manchester after a video emerged showing a police officer kicking a man in the head at Manchester Airport.

During the protest, demonstrators, some wearing face coverings and chanting "GMP shame on you'" were pictured outside Rochdale Police Station building, while others present let off fireworks.

One eyewitness told Manchester Evening News there were around 200 people in attendance.

It comes after a video is said to have been filmed at Manchester Airport’s terminal two on Tuesday, 23 July, showing an officer, with a taser in his hand, appearing to kick and then stamp on the head of a man lying face down on the floor.

Assistant Chief Constable Wasim Chaudhry from GMP said: "A protest held last night outside Rochdale Police Station about our response at Manchester Airport has concluded safely, without incident. We understand the immense feeling of concern and worry that people feel about our response and fully respect their right to demonstrate their views peacefully.

“We have already referred our actions to the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) and will be in further discussions with them today. We have spent the evening listening to community feedback and will continue to engage with communities and elected members to maintain strong partnership links and understand local views."
