Last night in Berkeley.
BERKELEY, Calif. (AP) — A second night of protest against police killings in Missouri and New York turned violent again in Berkeley as some demonstrators threw rocks and bottles at officers, assaulted each other and shut down a freeway, police said.
Sunday's protest began peacefully on the University of California,
Berkeley campus. But as protesters marched through downtown Berkeley
toward the neighboring city of Oakland, the unrest resumed as someone
smashed the window of a Radio Shack. When a protester tried to stop the
growing vandalism, he was hit with a hammer, Officer Jennifer Coats
said.
Some of the protesters made their way to a freeway in Oakland and blocked traffic. The California Highway Patrol said some tried to light a patrol vehicle on fire and threw rocks and bottles. Police also said explosives were thrown at officers, but there was no information immediately available on how potent they were. Highway patrol officers responded with tear gas.
