TWO people have been charged after disorder which saw riot police called out in Dundee on Halloween.
Emergency services attended the Kirkton area of the city on Monday night after bonfires were lit on the streets and fireworks were thrown.
Police said a 28-year-old woman and a 15-year-old boy have been charged with alleged mobbing and rioting offences.
It is understood the woman has been freed pending further inquiries, while the teenager is expected to appear at Dundee Sheriff Court on December 2.
A 16-year-old boy was arrested and charged on Thursday in connection with the disorder. He was released pending further inquiries.
Chief Superintendent Phil Davison said: “We are still following positive lines of inquiry to identify others involved in this disorder and expect to make further arrests.
“I am still appealing to anyone with any information about the incident to call 101 or use the portal link that has been set up. You can remain anonymous when submitting information.”

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
