One man was shot in the head in an incident Tuesday evening. Drew Hernandez (@livesmattershow) who captured the footage has stated that he believes the man shot was a rioter.
It appears an armed citizen was defending the car dealership and opened fire on the rioter who was attempting to vandalize or burn the dealership down
Before this shooting took place, the rioters were planning to burn down their “next car dealership”

But apparently some folks are fed up with rioting, which has resulted in men with guns standing in front of businesses and perched on rooftops to protect their property. Watch some of the video clips below obtained on Twitter:
