london riot
More than 1,000 arrests have been made and about 600 people charged over three days of rioting and looting in London.
Police said among those held was a man aged 19, in Haringey, east London, who posted a picture of himself on Twitter, posing with suspected stolen goods.
An increased police presence of 16,000 will remain on the streets throughout the weekend, the prime minister said.
The death toll from London's riots rose to two with the death of a 68-year-old man who was attacked in Ealing.
Richard Mannington Bowes, of Haven Green, Ealing, suffered head injuries and went into a coma when he was attacked on Monday night after remonstrating with some teenagers who were setting fire to two industrial bins on Spring Bridge Road.
Previously Trevor Ellis, 26, of Brixton Hill, was found shot in a car in Croydon. Police believe he was shot during a car chase on Monday night following an altercation with a group of people.
'Not enough police'
On Thursday, the Metropolitan Police said it carried out raids across the capital, "knocking on the doors" of those suspected of being involved in the riots which began on Saturday, while magistrates' courts sat through the night again to process those charged.
