Two Federal Protective Service officers suffered gunshot wounds amid protests Friday night in Oakland, California, police said.

At least 7,500 protesters took to the streets of the city to demonstrate over the death of George Floyd, the Oakland Police Department told CNN.

Protesters caused damage across the city. There were reports of vandalism, theft of businesses, fires set and assaults on police officers, according to the police statement.

While arrests were made, police were unable to provide specifics.

“demonstrate over the death of George Floyd”

No, it’s an all out riot free for all. These folks couldn’t possibly care less about Mr. Floyd. Bet my life on that.
