Thirty people are set to be sentenced for their part in the Ely riots. The violence began following the the deaths of two teenage boys in an electric bike collision on May 22, 2023.

Around 150 people attended the riot which saw hours of violence and vandalism take place on the streets on and near Wilson Road.

Kyrees Sullivan, 16, and Harvey Evans, 15, were killed while riding an electric bike through the streets of Ely in Cardiff. The two young boys were involved in a fatal collision and were later pronounced dead at the scene.

The mothers of the two teenagers attempted to run to their children, grief-stricken and in desperation, but their path was blocked by the police.

Moments after the collision large crowds consisting of members of the close-knit community of Ely came out to witness the horror as it unfolded.

Shock and sadness quickly turned to distress and anger at how the police were handling the scene and as rumours circulated that the police were responsible for the death of Kyrees and Harvey who had previously been pursued by a police van.

30 people will today be sentenced for their roles on the fateful day of May 22. You can get live updates from the court room here.
