On the ground in Lancaster, Pa. for @townhallcom where riots broke out after an officer shot a suspect who was charging at him with a knife. Buildings that were damaged last night have the broken widows boarded up.
As a bonus, there’s a nice local news station on scene.
A man with an America flag showed up to the BLM protest outside the Lancaster police station. Some people not happy he is here.
One woman throws some of her drink on him and a couple of people were upset she did that.
BLM protesters in Lancaster chant, “Crisis workers, not cops!”
One man in body armor held up a Thin Blue Line flag as Lancaster officers came out of the police building. Some BLM protesters told him to put it away.
Pretty calm so far. Lancaster officers are staying mostly inside the police building and there’s not as any people outside as last night. We’ll see if the calm holds.
Bit of a tense scene in Philadelphia as some Trump supporters are facing off against BLM protesters. One agitator calls one female Trump supporter a “bitch” and a “Nazi.”
Cops are trying to separate the two sides.
There’s an anti-Trump protester in a Trump mask rubbing an American flag in her underwear.
BLM protesters are now marching in the streets of Philadelphia.
I’m done for the night but I’m glad I was able to make a quick visit to the area where the Marine Corps was born on Nov. 10, 1775 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
