Photo: Henrik Montgomery/TTA derby match between two rival clubs in Stockholm has been marred by rioting, with violence and public order breaches among the problems. A further person was arrested for rioting, violence towards a public servant, attempted violence towards a public servant, and petty narcotics crimes. And a banning order was dished out to an additional person for lighting a bengal flare, a breach of Sweden's Public Order Act. Reports will be filed for breaches of the Public Order Act in those cases according to police, who were forced to intervene in an effort to control the crowd. Trouble between rival fans is a persistent problem at Swedish football matches.
