MR. MARKHAM
(Nottinghamshire, Mansfield)
To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland will he say the number of policemen injured during the Belfast riots, and the particulars of the injuries they received.
(Answered by Mr. Birrell.)
Forty-five policemen were injured during the riots at Belfast on 11th and 12th instant. Of these fourteen received injuries to the head and face, and thirty were injured about the body and limbs, the injuries being in all cases inflicted by stones, bottles, and other missiles thrown by the rioters. One man had his ankle sprained.
