Unrest in Minneapolis after shooting death of suspect by law enforcement

Rioters in Minneapolis reportedly smashed windows and lit a dumpster on fire Thursday night near a parking garage where an officer fatally shot a suspect wanted for unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon earlier. 

The suspect, accused in a homicide, didn’t follow commands from the U.S. Marshal Service taskforce –  made up of local law enforcement  – and pulled out a gun during the attempted arrest, FOX 9 in Minneapolis reported, citing authorities. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

The dumpster eventually melted into a "puddle of fire," a KSTP-TV reporter at the scene tweeted. The few dozen protesters continued to add items to the dumpster to keep it burning, FOX 9 reported.

Firefighters eventually arrived and extinguished the fire. Police reportedly took around 40 minutes to respond after it was lit.

More rioting in Minneapolis.

Nuke it from high orbit. It's the only reasonable solution.

H5, I like the way you think, a simple solution to a complex problem. :-)
