(Worthy News) – Minnesota police on Tuesday night arrested over 60 people for rioting and other offenses during protests over the fatal police shooting of Duante Wright earlier this week.
Police used flash grenades and riot gas on the protesters, including some who purportedly threw bricks at officers.
“Unfortunately again, some citizens decided to come out and throw these bricks and these other items at law enforcement and this type of behavior is not acceptable and we’re just, quite frankly, not going to tolerate it,” State Patrol Col. Matt Langer said. [ Source: Just the News (Read More…) ]
