Tensions over the murder of student Henry Nowak boiled over on Tuesday, with police and protesters clashing after police body camera footage of his final moments was released.

Nowak, an 18-year-old university student, was fatally stabbed by Vickrum Digwa, 23, with a Sikh ceremonial blade. Police bodycam footage confirmed the most inflammatory details of reports about the murder, with police initially siding with Digwa after he accused the wounded Nowak of racism. The responding officers ignored Nowak’s pleas for several minutes, going so far as to handcuff him as he lost consciousness and died. The release of the footage caused an outpouring of rage from the British public, culminating in hundreds of protesters demonstrating, at times clashing with police near the site of Nowak’s death.
