Teenager jailed for violent attack on Bonfire Night
A teenager who was part of a masked mob who attacked police and members of the public on Bonfire Night in Edinburgh has been jailed.  Jamie Hogg was first caught launching fireworks, bricks and poles at officers, public service busses and into the entrance of a block of flats narrowly missing civilians on October 31, 2024. Hogg, 19, also aimed pyrotechnics at constables who were positioned behind a police cordon as they battled to contain the 20 strong gang who were causing havoc in the Moredun area of the capital.
