No aggression towards police or trumpers on the side of building we're seeing. But something else went on on other side, near ASU campus. Lots of tear gas.

Now police telling everyone to go home. One bystander said he was shot by large non-lethal cone shaped ball which he showed. Choppers overhead. Mopping up.

They wanted a fight.

They will plant some cops in the crowd.

Must have been hot in all that riot gear.

but some people have reported seeing some on social media.

Woman previously arrested seems to have been released.

Streets being opened.

Cops handing out water.

Many people, probably students , still quietly hanging out.

Tapes being shown of earlier skirmishes with rocks being thrown, maybe at cops. Cops fired paintballs , no it's pepper spray balls.
