<p>Police have arrested an 18-year-old on suspicion of attempted murder after a fire extinguisher was thrown at officers during the Millbank riot.</p>
<p>Scotland Yard said the man was detained by Hampshire Police in Southampton on Monday.</p>
<p>He is travelling to London where he will be questioned by officers from the Metropolitan Police.</p>
<p>On Friday, a 23-year-old, a student at Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge, was arrested and then released on bail on suspicion of violent disorder.</p>
<p>A Met spokesman said: &#8220;This arrest follows an investigation into public disorder where a fire extinguisher was thrown from the roof of Millbank Tower.&#8221;</p>
<p>Police Federation representatives have called for the person who flung the empty metal fire extinguisher to be charged with attempted murder.</p>
<p>Senior officers said it narrowly missed injuring two territorial support group officers, brushing down the back of one and hitting the knees of another.</p>
<p>The incident was one of the defining moments of the four-hour stand-off last week after a breakaway group of students attacked the Millbank office complex.</p>
<p>Up to 50 demonstrators smashed windows, discharged fire extinguishers and threw debris from the roof of the building. But hundreds of others gathered in a forecourt below booed the culprit and shouted to others to stop damaging the building and throwing missiles.</p>
<p>The Met said 10 of the 54 people arrested during sprawling outbreaks of disorder were under the age of 18.</p>
