[UPDATE 11:10 p.m.] Protest Heating Up as Night Grows Darker

After the earlier peaceful protest, when dark fell, some elements of the crowd appeared to be pushing for violent confrontation. According to reports by officers over the scanner just before 9:30 p.m., some protesters directed slingshots at officers.

About 10:09 p.m., an officer reported over the scanner being hit with a rock. It was unclear if he was in a vehicle or not.

About 10:33, confusing reports over the scanner indicated that the crowd may have attacked someone tagging items with spray paint. To try and disperse the attack, Eureka Police released a large number of pepper balls into the crowd, according to a witness.

At 10:35 p.m., EPD protest units requested all available units to 5th and N Street.

Multiple people have pepper ball exposure.

Several people are being detained.

Please remember that information gathered from initial reports is subject to revision as more facts become available.

UPDATE 11:10 p.m.: Nazy Javid from North Coast News was at the scene.

 

UPDATE 11:55 p.m.: Nazy Javid just posted this video from the actual pepper ball shooting that a viewer sent her.

UPDATE Monday morning: When Some Protesters Attempted to Take a Man Being Arrested for Vandalism From Police, Pepper Balls Were Deployed

Thugs. That’s who waited until after dark to commit their crimes. Hopefully those detained will be charged with domestic terrorism. It is unlikely, but it should happen. Keep these people off the streets. Once this current “cause” for violence passes it will be these same people who participate in more mayhem any chance they get if not in jail where they belong. The Police Chief and Sheriff made good speeches, now they need to follow through with zero tolerance for these criminals. I doubt it will happen, given the very poor local track record, but I’m still hopeful. Please don’t disappoint.

Well one bad cop has crapped in everyones’ yard. You can’t arrest everybody. The mood in the country has gotten this many people upset, and out in the streets. President Orange Glow has encouraged violence, especially types of violence associated with Black suppression, like the “vicious dogs..” comment, and the re-use of the term from apartheid Florida, ” when the looting starts, the shooting starts” that brings out an angry response. Then add white power agent provocateurs, and run-of-the-mill degenerates, and it is a big mess.
Too bad they can’t riot in a place like Calabasas instead of downtown Eureka. Don’t damage Locally owned, minority owned businesses, or any private property. Your gonna need those folks as allies. So much winning, I am getting tired of it.

According to the “Humboldt Grassroots” Facebook page peacefully protesting and getting along with police is “humiliating” and they don’t want to be associated with the first half of the night. Wondering how many of their followers are not at home right now OR on the arrest log for tomorrow for being violent …..Fighting brutality with brutality.

Liquid antacid helps the pepper spray.

It’s pretty disturbing to see the woman shot in the ear with a pepper ball. A bleeding ear is very dangerous. Its at around 14:30 in video.

Steve Watson if youre reading this I want you to answer for this!
I have already forwarded the video to NLG and the lawyers who defended the Pepper Spray 9.
You see how people throw bottles after you shoot people in the head with rubber bullets? Only you are allowed to be violent? You didn’t do anything to the man who hit protesters with his car yesterday.
Your actions create more violence do you not get it?
Just because you calmed the crowd by hugging protesters does not mean you care obviously just that you know good tactics.
You know how dangerous pepper spray up close is and Im wondering if you just broke the law as the decision against the county in the pepper spray lawsuit said you cant pepper spray up close.
I see a lawsuit coming!!! Youd best contact nancy Delaney and learn the rules that came out of that lawsuit.

Oh man, you forwarded the video to a lawyer? I’ll bet EPD is shitting their pants right now. A real life lawyer? I’ve only ever heard tell of them on the television!

Clowns like you crack me up. You want to hold police to task for doing something you think violates the law / social contract / your rights (news flash: pepperballing violent protesters is none of those things)… but you’re violating the same principles by engaging in an unlawful and violent assembly. Put another way, you don’t want shot in your ear with a pepperball… be at home watching Tiger King like a normal person and not smashing bottles in the street at midnight! Or, a more simplistic explanation: you started it.

Before you comment, before you act, I ask that you think things through. You’ll never get anywhere meaningful without doing so.

You know nothing whatsoever about the personal life of the Chief. Don’t act like you do. Have you ever spoken to him on a personal level? Do you have a degree in psychology, do you understand how to read people? It’s clear that you don’t.

I guarantee you that he hardly gets sleep over this, trying to figure out how to help this situation remain calm and show people that he cares. He does everything he can to make sure that violence is absolutely the last course of action when all other things do not work, the absolute worst case scenario. He doesn’t want to see people get hurt, and he most definitely doesn’t want people to feel scared. What happened to Floyd and what happened to the countless other people of color that fell victim to racism and police brutality pains him deeply too, just as it does all of you. He does his absolute best to assure that awful things like that don’t happen here.

Never assume what goes on in a person’s heart. Never. All it will do is take you bad places. The life of someone in the police force that always does their best to do what’s right is more stressful than you could ever imagine. The Chief is one of the most caring and generous people I know. He doesn’t want to upset anyone. He gives his all to ensure people are happy and safe, and he genuinely cares about everyone he meets.

As for the car incident, what do you expect? Tell me, what happens when you throw yourself in front of a moving car? You get hit. You can’t blame anyone but the people that threw themselves onto the cars for that, and there were no confirmed major injuries sustained to anyone regardless.

Think before you speak. Please. It’ll save you a lot of trouble in life.

They have that right but i do not get why they are giving the few rioters a platform and encurgement to destroy the neighborhoods. The people rioting dont care about justice they are just looking for an excuse, any excuse to loot steal ans destroy. All of us must unte against all the looting and stop this travisy.

I saw it happen, they weren’t confused about the person tagging, they wanted to arrest her (him? idk). And then they ran off when the cops pointed them out. The police then started things off by arresting a guy in our group that was against the whole property damage thing and fired into the crowd, injuring one of the medics that had his hands up while kneeling. Tagging can be removed super easy, trash and trash cans can be picked up (the lady in the video who got her ear shot said she was even trying to pick up after them). Everything went to hell when some 12 y/o picked up a rock and broke the window on the sizzler, causing the alarm to go off like a moron. Most of the people who take it wayyy too far in the last 2 days are well below the age of 18, theyre in the developmental stage where theyre going to take risks and make mistakes. Dogs and kids have been at both protests, which is why people are mad about vehicles trying to run us over. 7 People were hit on saturday, one of which was a 13 y/o that walked with a limp for the rest of the march. Some of the stuff that the groups are doing may be assinine in yalls opinion, but think of other peoples families and how theyll feel if their kid doesnt come home. Would you want to be that parent?

No, I would not be want to be that parent. You just described some craptacular parents who are raising craptacular kids who are long overdue for a spanking. Allowing your underage children to go to some rally unattended and then vandalize local businesses sounds like grounds for needing your children taken by CPS. If the children were attended then thats even worse. You described a degenerate society in need of a cleansing. Every single one of those protesters across the country should be rounded up and arrested for treason, the men, the women, and especially the children.

Humboldt Grassroots should be ashamed. During Saturday’s event they added an event for Sunday on FB as well. Then Sunday when they didn’t like how the protesters were getting along with police they took the event down and claimed that they did not organize Sunday’s event. Um hello we see you! I for one was so proud of seeing our community members marching with police. Unfortunate you think that’s “humiliating” Humboldt Grassroots and didn’t want to be associated with it.

Honestly the protesters they hit hardest were us peaceful ones who were not rablerousing, but trying to shed light , luv and keep the peace. Some of us were walking behind the angry mob pickin’ up trash cans toppled and urging unaware misguided angry souls to not trash local business and keep it mellow. Hell if it wasn’t for a few peaceful hippies, stupid ppl would went ham on target and a bunch of mom and pop businesses.

You should be arrested for treason. As soon as one person started to vandalize anything or assault anyone, the “peaceful” protesters should’ve left so as to not be associated with the rioting. You did not keep it mellow and you did destroy people’s property. You didn’t get nearly what you deserved. And please tell me what you were actually protesting? Obviously the rubber bullets didn’t stop anyone. Perhaps they need to use real ones next time.

He was charged with 3rd degree murder. People want to see those charges upgraded to at least 2nd degree.

Several other officers participated and stood by watching the homicide take place without intervening. People want to see them arrested and charged with, at minimum, accessory to murder.

It took a few days for him to be arrested. People want to see faster action when it comes to cops committing crimes.

This is only one of the most recent cases from the past few weeks of cops killing or brutalizing people. People want to see massive overhaul of police policies and procedures to stop killer cops and end police brutality.

Just in the past few days there have been MULTIPLE cases of police attacking peaceful protesters, reporters (who are protected under the Geneva Conventions), and even non-protesting bystanders, so now people are protesting those incidents as well.

To all the whiners, the victim banner is nauseating. Protesting is your right, there are people committing dangerous acts, by exercising your rights you are accepting the risk of who knows what can happen, then you blame police and become armchair lawyers about how the police and lawyers do their job.
Do you know how the law works and the time it takes to bring charges correctly? Do you know that overshooting the charges could result in a hung jury? See the Casey Anthony trial where the prosecutor put a young white female on trial for the death penalty and she walked, they would have been far more successful with a lesser charge.
If you want to be a lawyer go to school, (Its fkn hard speaking from experience)
These arrogant remarks about the President are ignorant and your advice and judgement is not even remotely interesting.
This looks to me like a political shitstorm and an intentional distraction for the person who is Commander in Chief laboring to run this country while the Democrats and other bad actors continuously undermine him.

Since then, cops have adjusted back their aggressions, and Antifa has upped theirs.

Protesting peacefully, demonstrating peacefully, Americans rallying peacefully to express disapproval is an American right. It has proven to make change in policy, in people’s mindset. It has time and time again, moved our country forward.
However, blindly blaming all police is wrong. Assaulting our officers, bloodying innocent people, is the opposite of progress. These protests can make change. But for better or worse depends on the type of protesting. If we want peace, we must react peacefully.
To encourage a child to act kindly and lovingly, you must show those same behaviors. The same is true in adults. What those arresting officers did was wrong, it was despicable and unjust. But they should be punished, not an entire population of police. Most are good. Just like armed forces, doctors, nurses…. Police answer a calling to protect. They are just as disgusted & disheartened by the actions of those few who’s behavior tarnish the prestige of the badge they wear.
So I ask everyone, remember that it is our American privilege to speak our minds. But violence cannot answer violence.

So I’ve watched all the videos I could find and I think that the majority of our community that are protesting are decent people who want the world to be a better place. I think there are some groups that are only protesting because they want to cause civil unrest, incite violence, and spread hate within our community. To say it’s humiliating when officers join you in expressing their outrage over racist police and brutality by chanting no justice no peace no racist ass police is an example of spreading hate. To say it’s humiliating because it was your time to have a voice and be heard when the officers began with we hear you and we stand in outrage with you only shows that your goal was not to be heard or try to end this violence and hate. Your goal was to spread hate and negativity. You were told we are listening, we hear you and we are in this with you. It is important to be passionate and demand justice against anyone committing hateful acts of violence. It is also important that we clearly see the message being spread and the true intentions of some of these protest groups. If you want to protest because you want justice and change. If you want to protest to make the world better and spread positivity and build loving relationships between all human beings then by all means protest and do it with passion. But if you want to protest because you want revenge, you want to be violent and destructive. You want to fight hateful evil acts with hateful evil acts then you are part of the problem that needs to change. Protesters who are outraged or insulted by being met with actions of kindness, support, and validation from officers and respond to those actions with insults, disrespect, and violence don’t want to end this conflict of hatred and inequality. They are the monsters hiding among us who’s goal is to stop peace and further divide and cause conflict. Before any of us condemn the police or protestors as a whole we need to see that evil hides among us behind both badges and protest signs and hold those individuals responsible. No group as a whole is to blame for it.

I guess all you that speak of thugs should remember how you did a so called revolution to take this country away from the British and you brought the slaves to make this country on their backs, that’s over 400 years of oppression. Then you want them to fix things themselves, but it is the white Americans that need to fix what’s going on with racism in policing and the justice system that still subjugates them still! Then you blame Newsom, if you don’t like to live in our great state move!

Does anyone have video of the wanna be protest today on 4th thru 6th St in Eureka, that turned into violent attacks and was a riot by definition.
The vehicle my husband was driving had the rear window was broken out with the guys fist and they kicked dents into the vehicle in several spots.
I was in a separate vehicle, I could see from two blocks over.
There were a few other vehicles that the aggressive crowd attacked. The crowd looked like what you would see on those Zombie shows, jumping on top of the vehicle, rocking them, hitting, kicking, swarming Nothing about this was a protest. Sad.
There will be others looking for this same info for their vehicles that were destroyed.

I will be here for 3 days now…

I will be pressing charges.
