(WWBT) – Richmond Police Chief Will Smith got emotional during a press conference after the second night of protests in the city.
Chief Smith says last night protesters set fire to a few buildings, including a multi-family residence that was occupied by a child in the 300 block of West Broad Street.
As fire crews were arriving, Smith says protesters blocked the engine from reaching the fire.
“When you take a legitimate issue and hijack it for unknown reasons, that is unacceptable to me, it’s unacceptable to the Richmond Police Department, unacceptable to the city of Richmond,” said Smith.
While chocking up, Smith said officers were fortunate enough to make it inside the structure to rescue the child and family.
This is what the celebrities like Justin Timberlake who are bailing out thugs are funding. There’s no crime too horrifying for the Black Lives Matter/Antifa gang to commit.
