Lancaster city leaders are now calling for peace after protesters set a fire in the street and threw bricks into windows.
Eight people are charged in connection with protests that turned violent after police shot and killed a man armed with a knife on Sunday. Half of those arrested are from outside Lancaster County, police said.
During a news conference Monday, leaders said they understand the frustrations of the protesters but are asking them not to resort to violence.
"We are asking all of those that are protesting to please protest peacefully. Let your voices be heard. We offer ourselves as go-betweens. You can come to any of our offices and call us at any time and we're there for you," said Rev. Roland Forbes, of the Community and Police Working Group.
Lancaster police statement about arrests made after protests
"The disorder outside the Police station escalated as suspects continued to throw items at Police Officers as well as cause damage to the Police station, a parked vehicle and the front of the US Post Office building. We have also been receiving calls all morning from downtown business owners as they discovered damage from vandalism to their businesses.
"Officers continued the use of chemical munitions in efforts to disperse the rioters as the suspects piled street signs, trash cans, a metal dumpster, a metal bike rack, pieces of plywood and a wooden pallet at the intersection of N. Prince St. and W. Chestnut St. The suspects filled the dumpster with additional trash bags, as well as the wood, and set the contents on fire.
"Officers made a total of (8) arrests related to the arson/riot outside of the Police station. The arrests were made at approximately 0300 hrs. and shortly thereafter. All suspects arrested were transported to the Lancaster Bureau of Police station for processing and to be held for arraignment. (4) of the (8) suspects are from outside of Lancaster County. (2) of the suspects were armed with handguns during the protest and riot. Those handguns were recovered by Officers after the arrests."
Police said detectives will review online video, as well as surveillance video, to identify other suspects. Additional charges are likely to be filed, police said.

Riots = more Trump voters
Keep it up marxists
Well, since Munoz is a Latino are there going to be new Latino thug groups now to handle Latino and cop episodes? This is all ridiculous.
Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
pain in abortion.
Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
which has begun. To abort life is to end it.
The bottom line is that conservatives cant admit to themselves the Evil they have allowed to romp on their watch.
This is going to hurt.
When Republicans lose Lancaster, they have lost almost all of America. It is one of the most white parts of America.

You might be paralyzed by fear, nobody I know is
Americans will not stand for this. You will see an uprising at the polls. The democrat party knows it. That is why they are pushing so hard for mail in ballots. It is a two fold strategy
1) If the election is close they know they can "find" enough ballots to tip the election to Harris
2) If Trump wins in landslide they will use it to try to delegitimize his Presidency

Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.
