Current Event: Britain's Suspected Rioters Face Courts as Order Restored

Violence had broke out in London due to a protest over the death of a local man, Mark Duggan, who a Minister said was shot down by police. Citizens of London violently took over the streets, setting cars on fire and destroying things in their path. The police of London are trying to track down the rioters, so far they have more than 1,900 citizens who have been arrested. In a newspaper in London, it states plenty of the stories of the people who were charged with violent acts. Any one who has witnessed or knows someone who had done a crime is to report to the police men. The people who are charged are attending court, and the numbers keep rising. The police of London are trying to get peace back in order.

This applies to me because something like a riot can happen in Lancaster, Texas. People can be offended or find something wrong and attack the streets, it warns us that sometimes things go out of hand. It is a way of being aware international wise.
