There, the gathering took a more destructive turn, with several businesses along lower Broadway vandalized. A Starbucks, Metro PCS store and Smart and Final outlets had their windows smashed and were looted. Windows were also smashed at branches of Wells Fargo and Chase banks.

It’s unfortunate that some demonstrators then decided to close down the freeway, placing themselves, our officers and many uninvolved motorists at great risk. A smaller group of people then caused vandalism and broke into businesses around a four-block area downtown, breaking windows, painting graffiti and setting garbage cans on fire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This property destruction and violence was completely unacceptable. However, thanks to the remarkable dedication and professionalism of our police, few people were injured and nobody was seriously hurt. Oakland Police Department officers showed tremendous restraint in the face of hundreds of demonstrators throwing bottles and rocks at them and provoking them for hours. OPD’s tactics prevented people from being hurt and helped us arrest more than 40 of the vandals. We will work diligently today and in the coming weeks to ensure that we keep our highway entrances safer and prevent further harm to people and property.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>At one point during the late-night disturbance on Broadway, members of the large contingent of police who responded to the protest fired tear gas, flash-bang grenades and nonlethal projectiles at the crowd.

There, the gathering took a more destructive turn, with several businesses along lower Broadway vandalized.

It’s unfortunate that some demonstrators then decided to close down the freeway, placing themselves, our officers and many uninvolved motorists at great risk. A smaller group of people then caused vandalism and broke into businesses around a four-block area downtown, breaking windows, painting graffiti and setting garbage cans on fire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This property destruction and violence was completely unacceptable. However, thanks to the remarkable dedication and professionalism of our police, few people were injured and nobody was seriously hurt. Oakland Police Department officers showed tremendous restraint in the face of hundreds of demonstrators throwing bottles and rocks at them and provoking them for hours. OPD’s tactics prevented people from being hurt and helped us arrest more than 40 of the vandals. We will work diligently today and in the coming weeks to ensure that we keep our highway entrances safer and prevent further harm to people and property.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>At one point during the late-night disturbance on Broadway, members of the large contingent of police who responded to the protest fired tear gas, flash-bang grenades and nonlethal projectiles at the crowd.

In this, the grand jury of nine whites and three blacks was no different from grand juries all over the country that previously have excused police officers following shooting deaths like this. Our nation’s legal standards, its broad definitions of the use of “deadly force,” make it extremely difficult for police officers ever to face criminal charges even when an unarmed citizen dies after an altercation like this. \u003ca href=\"https://www.themarshallproject.org/2014/11/25/law-and-disorder-in-ferguson\" target=\"_blank\">Full story\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://fivethirtyeight.com/datalab/allegations-of-police-misconduct-rarely-result-in-charges/\" target=\"_blank\">Allegations of police misconduct rarely result in charges\u003c/a> (FiveThirtyEight):\u003cbr>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>...

Of the eight office buildings under construction in the city, 100 percent of the space has been pre-leased to technology companies.
