DETECTIVES have released photos of several people they want to trace in connection with crowd trouble at the Millwall vs Wigan FA Cup semi-final. Police have made the photos public this morning, with the aim of bringing those responsible for the weekend's disorder - which marred the Wembley showpiece - to justice. Detective Chief Inspector Andy Barnes, Senior Investigating Officer, said: "The scenes of violence at Wembley on Saturday 13th were wholly unacceptable. We want to reassure the public that we are working closely with our partners to do everything possible to remove these people from the stands. "We are committed to bringing them to justice and in doing so we will seek to obtain lengthy football banning orders for all those found guilty at court." He added: "Over 60,000 fans went to this game to support their teams; sadly there was a small minority intent on violence. "In sending a clear message to those intent on causing trouble, I would appeal for help from the public to identify any of the suspects featured in the images we are releasing today." If you recognise someone in these pictures or have information regarding the incidents, contact police on 020 8246 0076 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111. Earlier in the week, a teenager from Croydon was arrested for allegedly ticket touting before Saturday's FA Cup semi-final. The 15-year-old boy has since been bailed to return to a west London police station in May
