Seven people have been arrested now in connection with the disorder.

A 37-year-old woman and a 15-year-old boy were arrested last night (Thursday, August 6, 2026) on suspicion of assault.

A 41-year-old man was also arrested last night (Thursday 6 August) on suspicion of making threats to kill.

A Section 60 order, which gives officers temporary authority to stop and search anyone within a specific area, was issued for Page Hall for 48 hours between 7.40pm on Tuesday to the same time last night.

Since the order was put in place, officers have carried out an estimated 130 searches, seizing 50 items that could be used as weapons, including a knuckle duster, a broom handle with a knife attached to the end and prams filled with bricks.

James Lawson, Acting Inspector for Sheffield North East Neighbourhood Policing Team, said: "Officers have been working proactively to seize weapons and carry out stop searches in the Page Hall area following the disorder witnessed earlier this week.

"No one wants to see this kind of criminality on their doorstep and I hope our policing response shows that we take the threat of disorder incredibly seriously.

"We will keep working alongside partners to build a safer and stronger neighbourhood in Page Hall and will continue to take appropriate action against those who threaten the safety of members of this community."

Police say a patrol plan remains in place for Page Hall today and over the course of the weekend and there will continue to be a police presence in the area.

A force spokesperson said: “Officers have been and continue to be supported by partners, including the council’s Page Hall Neighbourhood Service team and North East Local Area Committee, with work also ongoing to engage with young people in the local area.

“If you have any concerns or queries you wish to raise, please speak with our officers when they are out and about in the local community.”
