Four people were arrested during the latest protests in Falkirk’s Kemper Avenue at the weekend.
Police Scotland confirmed that officers had made four arrests on Sunday afternoon, however only two had seen people charged.
Hundreds of protesters gathered in the town street for a third time at the weekend as members of the public voiced their concerns over the use of the former Cladhan Hotel by the Home Office as lodgings for asylum seekers.

Both sides were separated by police officers and metal barriers on opposite sides of Kemper Avenue.
