Streets outnumbering officers on the streets even though Additional Resources were brought in including more National Guard troops, state police and other boots on the ground but unfortunately for local authorities they say they were out mine and outnumbered and underestimated the ones in distraction and size of the crowd that in some cases according to authorities was firing weapons at them forcing the police to adjust their tactics to avoid being shot and killed on the streets of minneapolis as they tried to corral the more violent protesters. We are seeing these demonstrations across the nation tonight and the cities are burning and authorities are wondering where this is going. Certainly in minnesota governor said theres a proposal to bring in army troops and special teams but he does not want to see these troops squaring off with people on the street so what happens now, will appeals for calm be heard, we simply do not know. We have seen your correspondent mike tobin on the phone. He was there to witness firsthand three nights of violence on the streets of minneapolis and he is with us tonight to talk about what happened as he tried to get his way out of this hot zone. Do we have mike tobin . Go ahead. Reporter the real observation is the reluctance to have these ugly scenes play out, to witness things like what we saw in ferguson. This is almost the polar opposite of the problem we saw in ferguson were the quick jump to bring out the heavy force and the reluctance to use any force and stand up to the mob whatsoever created arguably a worse scene, when you saw the third precinct just given up to the angry mob and the protesters very encouraged as they toppled the fences and broke out the windows and doors and got inside that location and set fire to the precinct and the number of businesses in the immediate area, so they went back today, looked like the state patrol secured that area rather effectively in the crowd of demonstrators that showed up at the line didnt really seem like they were that. They were growing numbers as you get close to the 8 00 deadline with the curfew and state patrol came out with their about speaker truck, told demonstrators they needed to go home or would be in violation of the order, they stepped that up saying youre in violation of the order and subject to arrest and when 8 00 came and went they retreated and as the guardsman and state before retreated the demonstrators advanced, see more bold all the time, exchange rocks and bottles with tear gas fire, flash bang but the authorities kept backing up and the protesters kept advancing, it seems like it wasnt going to be too destructive of a margin possibly looked like letting them march might cause them to disperse but that didnt happen at all. The fires we saw set at an auto parts store, they continued on to the area of the fifth precinct where it looks like they were joined in numbers by other demonstrators, i shouldnt say demonstrators, rioters from around the city and more and more started setting fires, the office depot there, the dollar store, they tried to get into the Wells Fargo Bank according to one Security Guard i was communicating with, they took the car, rented into an atm at the Wells Fargo Bank, they set things on fire and ultimately set the Wells Fargo Bank on fire, that area near the fifth precinct, the post office set on fire and looked like a rental center, or group of businesses, that building was set on fire and ultimately entirely engulfed and it got to the point, a retreat up to the interstate, looking at what was happening, even that got carried away and we have Security Force with us, we had to get all the way back three miles across lake street, we had to go now. It was digressing the entire time across lake street but i would say my by observation it was the exception to have a business that didnt have windows broken out. They broke the windows and bent the doors of almost everything, they were leaving the liquor stores, as brazen as to drag cars in front of the liquor store and load up the liquor store, with as much liquor as they could and it is not political, it is opportunism, a good bit of gunfire. We made it back to the vehicles in the comfort of my hotel room. That is where you should be. We heard from minnesota governor who said he was deeply disappointed the curfew was ignored and there were a shocking number of people on the streets overwhelming the Law Enforcement that had been deployed. He called the situation incredibly dangerous which he said he understands the rage but what is going on now is not that. What were seeing is opportunism and anarchy in the streets, this is not grieving, this is lifethreatening and dangerous, telling people you need to go home but people arent listening to the governor right now. The goal to protect life and property and restore order is not being achieved by Law Enforcement who have to present themselves in addition to the public and what you are seeing now with these fires burning is apparently pretty much out of control and what you have reported and what we heard from the National Guard is one of their missions, the National Guard in minnesota was to accompany those fire trucks because firefighters werent safe going into these areas to put out these fires without some kind of armed security. So tell us about those convoys that you saw of him these escorting firetrucks to these blazes. They have set their goals as far as what they can achieve on smaller missions, the Bigger Mission would be to restore order altogether but the smaller mission would be to secure the area around the truck, you see one of those examples affordable trucks dousing the fire and they have three or four hoses trained on one of the big letter trucks doing the heavy work but if you create a scene like that it is interesting, that attracts the protesters, they will show up, slowly but surely things like the bottles will start getting thrown over the crowd and as they grow more bold over time, they will come after really anybody or anything that gets their attention so in order to let the firefighters do their work youve got to secure a perimeter and what we saw with the firetrucks driving across town is two firetrucks outnumbered for someone with humvees, all of the humvees so with guardsman, every seat filled in those particular humvees. I know you know from being in iraq, the general used to call those gun trucks because of weapons mounted on top of the trucks. The weapons themselves went on top of the truck. As far as what i saw the guardsman armed with, mostly m16s. A few m 4s, not all of them had magazines. A lot of the rifles were empty. The complement of the guardsman going out with everyone, firetrucks, they need to have some space to do their work to respond to all the fires that have been set across the city. This is supposed to be a Civilized Society. We heard the governor make reference to that and what were seeing tonight is far from civilized and very disturbing for anyone who is watching, we definitely appreciate your reporting, get some sleep and be back on it tomorrow. I want to bring in the former boston superintendent in chief of the Police Department who is managing director of coral security. This is so awful what we are seeing now and clearly no longer a protest but just anarchy. It was product that perhaps they should have anticipated that people who were cooped up during the pandemic would see this as an opportunity to get out and do some wilding but no one anticipated it would be as bad as it is not just in minneapolis but across america, many of the big cities. Are you there . Exactly right. Theres always individuals will take advantage of situations like this. There it was an outrage, every one of them realized that gentleman was victimized and was murdered and every one of their drops is going to be harder because theres going to be blowback, people are not satisfied with the, Justice System and that is righteous, there are things that can be done and outrageous action by the officer. But this is people who are now just, theres always criminals will take advantage of situations to try and. And do things for themselves and be part of what they think is an amazing experience to be part of the riot and you add the fact that americans were locked up in their homes for the past 3 or 4 months trying to fight this virus and it is gas on the fire. Should have been an acknowledgment this will be challenging, we need to have a commitment of resources across entire regions that are robust to where hotspots occur. People engaged in criminal activity, let me get my cell phone out. The signal on your cell phone is not as strong as we would like you to read but im curious to hear your reaction, i assume you were listening to the governor and other city officials who spoke about the plans that were made and the fact that they say they were overwhelmed, they dont have enough manpower to handle the size of the crowds that were demonstrating and creating these situations, starting fires, looting and breaking windows across the city and if you are still with us, final words, hate to ask you to secondguess the Minneapolis Police but can you secondguess the Minneapolis Police and tell us if you think they should have done more than they did . It is the police in the region. They said what do you think of 500 National Guardsmen . I said not enough. There will be problems and challenges across the state and we need a large number of resources. Ems in the entire region ready to respond to hotspots very quickly and to be in front of it. Theres definitely a need for Additional Resources and you need to be upfront and dont the first bottle that flies you need to be decisive and take the individual out of the crowd, the first signs of fire you need to go and put that fire out. If you dont it keeps growing and growing and people who ordinarily wouldnt engage in activity will get sucked in and become part of the crowd. You need to stop that by having a large number of resources ready, willing and able to hold people accountable for their actions. It is unfortunate but apparent that the more freedom, the more leeway you give people like this who want to do what they are doing, the more they will do and we are seeing it play out not just in minneapolis but phoenix as well where the Police Department tweeted out that property in the Downtown Phoenix area have been vandalized, some demonstrators engaging in criminal behavior, breaking windows and doors and destroy cars parked along the street, we find images from portland were similar things were happening, images from washington dc where demonstrators were squared off against officers, throwing bricks and other objects. In new york city, police cars, vans and squaring off with police, it is happening in atlanta where they attacked the headquarters of cnn and were engaging in confrontations with officers there and we are seeing it in other cities, it is unfortunate but likely to continue unless more is done and sounds like you believe more could be done and should be done and more can be done but they have to be tougher immediately with the people on the street and we appreciate your time. Before we get to Fox News Contributor ted williams i wanted to mention a couple other things that happen, one of them is a frightening incident in san jose where an suv drove through a crowd of demonstrators and we are told by witnesses may have struck multiple people, the tale end of the video where a van drives into a crowd of people protesting on the street and according to witnesses the injuries were very very serious, we dont have confirmation that we have this video that shows a van driving into a crowd. This is the kind of thing that could happen again certainly. We know gunshots were reportedly fired in minneapolis and i have been told by a Law Enforcement source that two Security Guards in oakland were shot and one of them was killed friday night by rioters and one of those Police Officers in front of the white house, ted williams, took a break to the head, saw them being treated and we know bricks were thrown based on reporting in front of the white house, show what say use of the likelihood that these demonstrators will continue and how do authorities get them under control . Not good being with you at this time of the lord. I was hoping things would have dialed down from the time you and i last talked but it is apparent it is amplified itself. When i say itself, i think theres going to be a need for a National Investigation by the fbi because i believe a lot of this was better organized. When you look at this and what has happened overnight in all these major metropolitan cities, the one thing you can come away from with a clear knowledge of, this is not about george floyd and what happened to george floyd. George floyd never went into a target store and stole large amounts of clothing and televisions. George floyd never went in and broke into a liquor store and bought us much about some liquor as he could, this again. I could continue on but i would just say this. If you had the average demonstrator out there, this is no longer a demonstration. This is mob action. This is a mob. I will tell you, this is domestic terrorism, that is what this is, this is terrorism. You said more eloquently than i could. It is definitely domestic terrorism and what weve never seen in this country before. We seen riots no doubt about it but theres something about this one that is out of the ordinary and it is not about the death of this man. As a result of that weve got a lot of good people have gotten hurt. I mean people in Law Enforcement, people in security jobs, people guarding certain institutions and banks etc. It was heartbreaking to hear the mayor of atlanta, georgia calling it a mob, not the demonstrators but the mob to go home, that what they were doing last night and throughout the night certainly was not representative of anything george floyd or his family would have wanted. I agree 100 . We are coming up against the heartbreak and appreciate your time early this morning as the situation continues to unfold and we will have continuing coverage of these nationwide arrests. Thank you.

Call the number on your screen rick in this fox news alert here from the studios in los angeles, word of the death of a demonstra this fox news alert, word of the death of a demonstrator in detroit tonight, not at the hands of police but gunshots fired from an suv into a crowd of protesters near the greektown entertainment district, the victim was a 19yearold man, no word on who the shooter may have been or the motive for that shooting is protests continue in cities across america including new york. Lets go to fox news correspondent alex hogan who has the latest. Reporter crowds gathered here in manhattan chanting things like black lives matter, the violence has to end and i cant breathe, those were the final words we heard george floyd say in the viral video so even though those crowd started just walking peacefully things changed as they made their way to brooklyn. Several dozen people have been arrested in new york, police even brought in a van so they could load people up into that van as they were arrested today, video of an officer kneeling on an unarmed black man as he continued to stop breathing, that pain and agony translating to anger we are seeing protests not just here but around the country, some of those protesters are saying if you are not speaking up against this problem you are a part of the problem and we heard from the mayor tonight. He was in the area of the breakout this evening urging people to not take their anger out on police who are just trying to do the job but on elected officials, also went on to tweet the we have a long night ahead of us in brooklyn, our sole focus is de
