Man jailed for violent disorder in Weymouth

A man has been sentenced to 12 months in prison for an offence of violent disorder committed during protest activity in Weymouth.

Eden Tobias Reboul, aged 27 and of Rodwell Road in Weymouth, was sentenced at Bournemouth Crown Court on Friday 30 August 2024 after admitting committing the offence during a protest on The Esplanade on Sunday 4 August 2024.

Reboul was arrested and charged following a review by officers into footage and other evidence linked to the protest, which showed the defendant who was part of the anti-immigration group throwing a can of drink at police lines during the protest.

Assistant Chief Constable Mark Callaghan, of Dorset Police, said: “The public disorder and violence towards police demonstrated during protest activity in Weymouth on Sunday 4 August 2024 was totally unacceptable. This caused a feeling of fear and hate in our communities and impacted those officers deployed.

“We have been working to identify those involved in this disorder and hold them accountable for their actions.

“We will continue to send a strong message to anyone involved in this type of activity that their behaviour will not be tolerated and we will work with the Crown Prosecution Service to ensure justice is served.”
