Large civil disorder broke out in north Belfast, Northern Ireland on Sunday 11 November 2001. The trouble started when republicans clashed with loyalists during a Remembrance Day service. Up to 400 Protestants and Catholics were involved in rioting in the afternoon on North Queen Street. 24 PSNI officers and two British Army soldiers were injured and eight PSNI vehicles burnt. An 11-year-old boy was treated in hospital for a leg injury blamed on a plastic baton round from the police. The police called the riots the "worst in years".
