He got into a fight with a group of people and later sped off, daring them to come for his business. Said people shouldn’t be destroying their own neighborhoods:pic.twitter.com/3O4FFmLnY8

Some residents were harassed by the crowd for protecting a local business (not their own business) “We’re out here trying to protect residents, we’re trying to protect the innocent people and we’re trying to protect the businesses of the citizens out here...”pic.twitter.com/1uNWHM6kNl

A group of people are trying to put out one of the car lot fires. The guy I spoke with said the owner was worried the fire would spread to the house next door, so a few of them kicked in the door and have been working for about an hour:pic.twitter.com/NprKFMo7qF

I’m wondering if perhaps the protesters yelling at the house were doing so for this purpose? Not sure.

There are apartments burning about a mile away from the courthouse, according to an officer we just spoke with (on our way to get food). You can see the fires and they are working to put it out. Unclear if people are inside.

There are multiple buildings burning over there, the officer added (I don’t think they are all apartments. He didn’t specify.)

We’re off the streets for right now. They are working all over town to put out the fires. I’m heading back to the hotel to write (and eat!) Stay tuned for some day footage tomorrow. We’ll be driving around and surveying how things are.
