- Groot threw together some sort of parking ban downtown, but then someone scattered cops all over the place in groups of ten or fifteen, leaving pockets of isolated officers when hundreds and thousands of assholes descended on them;
- dumpsters being wheeled into the streets as barricades....for the rioters. Streets and San should have been out all night with flatbeds sweeping these things up and parking them at Soldier Field;
- squads parked so close to the line of march that guerilla attackers slashed dozens tires rendering them inoperable for moving officers around anywhere and easily set ablaze...and tow trucks were unable to access the area;
- the 10-1's all over the radio were only a hint at what a disaster this is turning out to be;
- Cops losing equipment, hats, cuffs, vests;
- A sergeant with a broken wrist yesterday, and other with a broken arm Saturday;
- cops being dragged into the crowd and beaten;
- not to mention eggs, bottles, rocks, etc....and no helmets until Saturday;
- rioters attempting to flip multiple occupied wagons - something that hasn't been done since the Humboldt Park riots of the 70's we think;
- Car 44 refused....REFUSED....to send Area 4 Incident Teams downtown until after 2030 hours
