- 8 years ago
Protesters fired gunshots, hurled bricks and set a gas station on fire in Milwaukee on Saturday night, hours after a patrol officer shot and killed an armed suspect who took flight.
A crowd of about 100 people had gathered to protest the police shooting of a 23 year-old armed man earlier in the day.
Police said the man was fleeing a traffic stop and was armed with a gun.
It wasn't immediately clear if he pointed it at or fired it at the officer.
