During the rioting, which was very similar to that which took place in Ferguson, MO, many arson fires were started. There were 144 vehicles burned, and 15 structures were torched. As a result, about 200 people were arrested.
Several fires were going this morning, and one of them was rather large and multiple fire companies were called to help fight it. The National Guard was called out and dispersed at various points in the Western police district.
A curfew has been put in place for tonight. It will run between 10:00pm and 5:00am.
