Night of unrest after shooting sparks Tampa looting
Police say Chambers was shot as a last resort after police orders to halt were ignored. A two hour rain cooled but did not stop rioting as looters smashed windows and stole from white-owned stores along Central Avenue. A large riot squad used tear gas and a water cannon while flames lit the smoky city. Hammond noted rioters, mostly under 20, included locals who knew the burglary suspect and that white-owned stores were burned in the effected area.
