The police finally marched on the CVS. People looted it for an hour then lit afire.
They didn't immediately pull a fire truck to it, even though they had cnotrol of that block. They let it burn. What if there were people inside? What if someone killed someone in there and lit fire to hide evidence, destory video camera, etc?
I know they have to take it block by block, but the riot was small and other police vehicles made it there - why no fire truck? that CVS fire blazed for entirely too long.
