Student nurses recount ‘freighting’ experience as Belfast rioters attacked their home

Two student nurses have told ITV News of their ordeal during riots in Belfast.

Sumayah Nakazibwe and Stella Ariokot were forced to hide in their home as the incident unfolded while they waited to be rescued.

Their story comes as the family of Stephen Ogilvy, the man stabbed on Monday night in north Belfast, said they do not want the attack to "divide people or fuel hostility."
