London police said on Tuesday they will consider using baton rounds as calls mounted for them to use stronger measures in riots that have been sweeping the capital for the last three nights.
"That's a tactic that will be used by the Metropolitan police if deemed necessary," Deputy Assistant Commissioner Stephen Kavanagh told reporters.
Officers said they hoped they were wrong as they said they were "preparing for mass disorder again" tonight.
Senior Scotland Yard officers, led by Acting Commissioner Tim Godwin, met a number of departments last night to discuss the use of various tactics.
Asked about other tactics, such as plastic bullets or baton rounds, Mr Kavanagh said: "Through the night the Commissioner did absolutely consider that as one of the tactics available to use, a tactic used if deemed necessary.
"These are very fast-moving mobs - by the time we get baton guns there, they will have moved on."

If they don’t use live ammo, they best go in with over whelming numbers instead of 5,6 or 10 cops.
“London police said on Tuesday they will consider using baton rounds”
and they’ll might consider raising their voice and making other scary threats if extreme violence continues.
Thanks for the chuckle.
The bring in the water trucks and hoses to flush them down the sewers.
Except for our 2nd Amendment and an citizens armed for self defense, how much better off are we.
The Border Patrol Officer killed by one of the "Fast and Furios" weapons supplied to Mexican drug dealers - by the Obama Regime - had just fire a SANDBAG at the killer(s). That was (and I hear is still) the rules of engagement until live round 1st come from the other side.
and an citizens = and citizens
What the h#@! are we supposed to use, man? Harsh language? - Private Frost
Is #6 shot good for zombie hordes? I have a few hundred rounds saved just for this purpose. For use in my 12ga Tri-star tactical pump of course.
Prepare?! "Commence to begin to start to get ready to prepare" would be more likely be a reflection of Brit thinking. These are not the people who stood up to Hitler and Mussolini, or to the Japanese war machine.
Worth repeating thank you....

Here’s a comment from my friend in the UK after I advised they should switch to real bullets:
“Jack,
We are OK. Unbelievable what is going on. Whilst it is rioting, it nonetheless in truth is a race issue. The Rioters are 90% black/Asian but nobody will mention this and because of this the Police do not use any meaningful force against the rioters. We need the New York police force, they would not stand back and be pelted with bricks by black and Asian teenage rioters.”
He might be wrong about the NYPD but interesting anyway.
What he is saying is simply that the mob is free to hurt certain people and burn them out and he doesn't care ~
Equality under the law is not a Brit ideal sad to say.
“The bring in the water trucks and hoses to flush them down the sewers.”
Yes!!
Their idea is that their attention spans are short and they will soon tire of rioting and looting.
When it comes white folks like the Irish the Brits are scared witless and fight even the women and children as if they are the most dangerous of aggressors!

Jesus went there to mine lead. Where’d it all go?
I'm starting to wonder if the reason for hesitation might be that there are children of the upper class mixed in with the radical anarchists rioting?
Might as well ask them nicely to go home quietly.
How did GB produce Churchill? It’s amazing how fast and how far they have fallen.
Buggery will do that to a country spiritually.
