I seriously doubt an attempted murder charge will stick. From memory there needs to a proven intention to kill. Most likely he'll be charged with violent disorder or something similar.

Pity there isn't a culpable and reckless conduct charge in England like there is in Scotland. That would cover all the bases quite nicely and leave very little room to wriggle out of the charge on technicalities.
