Last updated 9th Oct 2022
Police have arrested four men in connection with reports of disorder in the build up to the Derby County vs Plymouth Argyle football match in September.
The men are aged between their 20s and 50s and are all from the Derby area.
The arrests were made in connection with alleged disorder in the Harvester car park before the game on Saturday 3 September.
A number of images were previously released to trace a number of people officers wanted to speak to as part of their enquiries into reports of disorder that day.
Derbyshire Constabulary say they still wish to trace four people.
PC Mike Turner, of our Football Policing Unit, said: “We will not allow or tolerate any disorder at football matches in Derbyshire.
“While most of our football fans go to matches to enjoy the game, sadly, there have been occasions where a few have been involved in incidents before, during and after fixtures and we will always look to take positive action.
“Four people have been arrested today in relation to issues at the Derby County vs Plymouth Argyle match our enquiries are continuing. If you have any information which could help with our ongoing investigation, please get in touch.”
