Louisiana Town in Riot Break as Racial Demonstration Escalates
In Plaquemine Louisiana a Sunday night protest spiraled into a melee as white and Black crowds clashed near Court House Square. Police used tear gas and high pressure water to separate rioters, with bricks and stones tossed at officers and several people arrested. Dr Berttrand Tyson and Ronnie Moore were among those taken to a temporary compound for processing, while James Farmer remained sought. The unrest follows a temporary restraining order issued by U.S. District Judge E Gordon West against racial demonstrations, aiming to prevent further violence and damage.
