A MARCH organised in memory of Drummer Lee Rigby, who was murdered in London, has ended in Cleethorpes. Between 200 and 300 people met at the Grimsby Cenotaph to first lay flowers and crosses, before marching a route through to the cenotaph outside St Peter's, in Cleethorpes. Humberside Police requested that the route of the march was diverted away from the mosque in Weelsby Road, Grimsby, which was targeted by arsonists last night. But walkers defied the request and marched by the mosque, which was heavily guarded by police and cordoned off. Our reporter at the scene said: "It wasn't exactly peaceful; the police had to keep sounding their sirens, but nothing was thrown or anything like that." A large number of representatives from the English Defence League were in attendance. The march ended in Cleethorpes with a minute's silence - see your Grimsby Telegraph tomorrow for coverage.
