1:54Now PlayingPolice patrol the streets of Belfast in Northern Ireland following anti-immigrant violence brought on by a stabbing attack.
Sudanese national Hadi Alodid appeared in court Wednesday via video to face charges of attempted murder, among others. The 30-year-old did not enter a plea. Detectives say he partially blinded a man during a knife attack on Monday, which set off a wave of public anger.
Hundreds of masked individuals set fire to homes Tuesday night believed to house immigrants. Firefighters worked to control the flames Wednesday as charred cars and debris lined the streets.
Appearing before lawmakers Wednesday, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said his thoughts are with the stabbing victim. And he criticized the violence that followed the attack, urging that order be restored, saying "the acts of violence and arson that followed are totally unjustified."
The family of the victim, Stephen Ogilvie, called for peaceful protest, adding "We do not want this terrible tragedy to be used to divide people or fuel hostility."
