Mark Bowen on Bristol Bridge

Three men sent to prison for a total of more than seven and a half years have become the first to be sentenced following the violence on Bristol’s streets on August 3.

The three men all sentenced for violent disorder are Dominic Capaldi, 35, of Sherrin Way in Withywood, who has been sentenced to 34 months; Daniel Russell, 47, of Church Road in Redfield, sentenced to 32 months; and Mark Bowen, 40, who is homeless and has been sentenced to 25 months.

The trio appeared separately at Bristol Crown, where one judge described the group they were with on that Saturday as being a “violent mob” engaged in “mindless violence”.
