Riots in Oakland, CA
10 01 09 - 11:53Riots broke out wednesday night in Oakland, Ca over the fatal shooting of 22 yr old Oscar Grant Haward. Oscar was shot in the back while on the floor, already detained by BART officer Johannes Mehserle. A small group of anarchists made an appearance at the protest. Police cars were attacked and other vehicles set ablaze. Police officers shot tear gas and and fired bean bags with shotguns into the crowd. The crowd eventually dispersed. Mahserle resigned just prior to an internal affairs investigation on the situation. This should have been a much larger turnout than it was, we should learn from our brothers in Greece.
