Police officers responding to the unrest on Wednesday were subjected to significant aggression, with two requiring hospital treatment after being hit with a rock, bitten, and spat at. Norfolk Police chief constable Paul Sanford warned that those involved in the disorder, which led to asylum seekers being escorted from properties for their safety, will face the "full force of the law". Two men were arrested on Thursday, one on suspicion of inciting racial hatred and another for being drunk and disorderly, following earlier arrests on Wednesday for public order offences and possession of an offensive weapon. The police force defended its actions, including the use of Pava spray, as proportionate and appropriate, despite some public criticism regarding alleged heavy-handedness.
