Requests to supply water cannons unlikely, says former PSNI chief constable
ASSISTANCE:THE PSNI has offered the London Metropolitan Police a number of Land Rovers to assist in its attempts to quell the recent nights of rioting in the British capital.
However, former PSNI chief constable Sir Hugh Orde indicated yesterday it is unlikely that it will be requested to supply water cannon or that its officers will be called upon to fire plastic bullets at rioters or to guide London police in the use of these baton rounds.
