Livestream - Possible Agitator in the Crowd

This is getting ugly. One guy who was front and center along the fence is now getting into it with the other people. Says he has a gun.

A military vehicle is on the street. National Guard is involved. Rubber bullets are being fired. Tear gas was thrown at the crowd and they threw it back.

This started because the cops decided to make the kids disperse. Some young girl told them the only reason they were demanding that they disperse was because the cops were afraid.
