How do we know they were rioters?

Coming down a street rioters went down, reason police were running that way to block off their exit.

So we're told. But we never see that. Chances are, if they were out and about at that point, they probably were rioters. But I won't rejoice in a beatdown until I'm sure they were guilty.

I'm sure the riot officers would make sure they're beating up rioters and not inocent bypassers.

I'm not. Maybe I'm scarred because I'm from Detroit, but I've seen guys take beatings just for looking at a cop the wrong way.

From what I've heard, Manchester has remained relatively untouched so far. Is that true?

Taken at 10.15pm on August 9th, 2011, in Manchester. Tactical Aid Unit catch rioters trying to flee from the city centre, and blockade the street. The sound you can hear in the background is the helicopter overhead, which had been hovering around the area for about 10 minutes, tracking them with its spotlight.
The man on the bike gets up on his own, and is ushered to the side of the road by a policeman. Another man with a bike is questioned, and allowed to continue on.
After seeming to question those they had caught for a few minutes, the two teams met at the top of the hill and left with the TAU van, heading back towards the city centre. To the best of my knowledge no arrests were made.

Is that what they were doing? Questioning? haha
And if they were definitely rioters, why were no arrests made then?
