Antifa rioters started fires and trashed buildings in Tacoma, Washington, in outrage over viral video of a police officer driving his squad car through a crowd of illegal street racers.
Videos showed numerous fires and businesses smashed up late Sunday as more than 100 people took to the streets close to where the officer had sped through a crowd the previous night, running over at least one person.
At least two police cars were damaged during the rampage as some city buildings had to be evacuated, according to The News Tribune.
A cheering mob — dressed in all black and at one point seen toting a Antifacist Action flag — was also caught on video trying to pull away the gates protecting the Pierce County Jail, chanting “free them all.”
Tacoma police said they also busted two people trying to get onto the roof of an unspecified secure building — saying they were armed with a handgun, double-bladed knives and batons.
The pair — a 32-year-old man and 36-year-old woman — were wearing all black, tactical riot gear and ski masks, police told the News Tribune. A third suspect with them got away, police said.
