A man accused of bursting into a blind woman's flat has been arrested on suspicion of common assault.
The suspect, aged in his 20s, was living at the Britannia Hotel, and was being held by police in Hackney, east London, in the early hours of this morning.
He is said to have entered the house on Wednesday night after being followed by a group of men on the street and told to 'go back to the hotel' where anti-migrant protesters were gathered outside.
The Met has now said he is no longer living there.
A spokesperson for the police this morning said: 'Our investigation continued on Thursday, with officers carrying out extensive CCTV enquiries and speaking to witnesses.
