Honey, 25, admitted looting three stores and attacking a car with three Romanian men inside.
A man has admitted looting three stores and his part in attacking a car with three Romanian men inside during riots in Hull.
Prosecutors said Honey, who wore a "distinctive" England flag T-shirt at the time of the unrest, "played a prominent role" in the violence and disorder.The unrest began when rioters gathered outside a hotel known to house asylum seekers and subjected police to a "barrage of verbal and physical threats" while chanting racist slogans, the court heard.
Judge John Thackray KC was told the three occupants were forced to flee the vehicle, which was near a garage that also came under attack. A statement by a garage worker, which was read out in court, said he locked himself inside the premises with the shutters down as a group of men attacked the business, damaging cars and setting one on fire.
Judge Thackray KC heard a staff member at HMP Hull was told Honey "went into Greggs to have a drink as the pepper spray made him thirsty".
