Stop and search powers have been enhanced until 3am.
A woman was also seen being treated in the tube station.
The Sun has reported this incident. Stating around 100 youths were involved in an incident in Stratford East London throwing objects and bottles at Police Officers. I hope the lady being treated a Stratford Station is ok and not seriously hurt.
