The prosecutor begins to discuss the three defendants who sit behind her in the glass-fronted dock.
Andrew Summerhayes stood close to a line of police officers in Belmont Road, failing to move out of their way when asked, she says.
“The defendant picked up a large bin… he rammed it… seemingly intent on catching the police” before tripping over in the road, the barrister adds.
In a video played in court, several protesters are seen running with wheelie bins towards retreating officers.
A voice says: “They’re running them out, they’re running them out. They’re chasing them with bins.”
Summerhayes then picked up a traffic cone before dropping it, the prosecutor tells the court.
Afterwards, the defendant said in a police interview that police were “paedophiles” and made no further comment, the barrister says.
The 38-year-old has 25 convictions for 45 offences, the court hears.
