POLICE have released six more images of men they want to talk to in connection with the illegal rave in East Croydon.
The pictures are of people who were in and around the former Royal Mail delivery office in Cherry Orchard Road on June 14.
Fire extinguishers, furniture and masonry were thrown at police when they tried to shut the event down.
Eight people were taken to hospital during the squat party including Rio Andrew, 15, who later died in hospital. A 19-year-old who was in a serious condition has since been discharged.
Commander Simon Letchford, leading the investigation, said: "I am appealing for anyone who recognises these people, or has information about the disorder, to come forward and speak to police.
"The behaviour of some of those attending this illegal rave and the direct attacks on officers who were there to maintain public safety is completely unacceptable.
"I am particularly keen for anyone who took images or video on mobile phones of the events in and around the area to provide these to police.
"They may contain vital evidence to help track down those responsible for this violence."
So far 16 people have been arrested for various offences connected to the rave, including money laundering, violent disorder and possession of drugs.
