Police investigate violence at Championship play-off

Police have released CCTV footage as part of their hunt for people involved in violence at last week's Championship play-off semi-final.

Chief Superintendent Colin Morgan has described the disorder:

"This incident started with some pushing and shoving at the top of the stand. It quickly turned nasty as a large group of supporters and stewards fell and were forced backwards down the steep stairway that separates the stands.

"It was made worse by some supporters who then chose to punch, push and kick at the stewards. It was pure luck that no-one was badly hurt. We will deal robustly with those responsible for disorder, whether inside or outside football venues, and we will bring them to court."

Police are appealing for help in identifying five men they would like to speak to in connection with disorder that took place during the QPR v Wigan Championship play-off semi-final second leg at Loftus Road on Monday 12th May.

Violence erupted during the second half of the game when stewards attempted to remove a fan from the upper tier of the South Africa Road stand.
