Briton sentenced to 9 years in prison for riot fire at hotel housing migrants

Two helmeted and outfitted police officers are shown standing near a low-rise building, where a small fire is shown.

A British man was on Friday jailed for nine years for arson at a hotel housing asylum seekers during anti-Muslim riots last month, as police and prosecutors have responded rapidly to the unrest in northern England, with roughly 1,300 people having been arrested.
