A second night of violence erupts in Milwaukee: One person is shot and a cop is wounded as crowd clashes with police after officer shot armed man
PUBLISHED: 05:45, 15 August 2016 | UPDATED: 11:06, 15 August 2016
At least one person was shot as police moved in to disperse nearly 150 protesters during a second night of riots in Milwaukee following the death of a 23-year-old man who was shot by an officer.
The crowd of protesters marched through the neighborhood where Sylville Smith was killed by a 24-year-old officer Saturday afternoon.
Some two dozen officers in riot gear confronted the protesters who blocked an intersection near where Smith was fatally shot.
Police moved in to try to disperse the crowd and warned of arrests after protesters threw bottles and rocks at police.
Authorities said one person was shot and officers used an armored vehicle to retrieve the injured victim and take the person to a hospital.
An officer was also injured and taken to the hospital after a thrown rock broke the windshield of a squad car near Sherman Boulevard and Burleigh Avenue, the Milwaukee Police Department tweeted.

Police have tweeted five locations where they said shots were fired.
A car fire was also reported at 45th and Hadley, the department tweeted around 2am. The tweet said the Milwaukee Police Department and Fire Department were 'en route'.
Officers made multiple arrests in the area of Sherman and Burleigh, but it's unclear how many people were taken into custody.
Protesters were walking around on a main thoroughfare around 9.30pm but there was no sign of the violence that plagued the city earlier Sunday night.
The crowd was at a location near where rioting took place on Saturday night and circled back to a park to block an intersection.
Most protesters had dispersed after a vigil was held for Smith.
Some teenagers were reportedly driving up and down the street, shouting and honking.

Police had maintained a low key presence near businesses that were destroyed by fires on Saturday.
About a dozen officers guarded the BP gas station, while others stood in the shadows at a nearby park.
Mayor Tom Barrett had said earlier that no curfew had been imposed Sunday.
Wisconsin Gov Scott Walker says he would like to see the police bodycam video of the shooting of Smith released soon, as long as making it public would not impede an ongoing investigation.
Walker told WISN TV Sunday that transparency could help calm the situation.
He says it is important for the public to know that an independent investigation is being conducted by the Wisconsin Department of Justice.
President Obama, who is on vacation at Martha's Vineyard where he was seen playing golf yesterday, has not yet commented on the shooting or subsequent unrest.
Wisconsin Attorney General Brad Schimel issued a statement Sunday saying that his department would 'work expeditiously to ensure a thorough and transparent gathering of the facts'.

Earlier in the day, police Chief Edward Flynn said cautioned that the shooting was still under investigation and authorities were awaiting autopsy results, but that based on the silent video from the unidentified officer's body camera, he 'certainly appeared to be within lawful bounds.'
Flynn declined to identify the officer who shot Smith but said he is black.
The police chief said he wasn't sure what prompted the stop but described Smith's car as 'behaving suspiciously'.
The officer involved has been on the force for three years, according to the department. He's been placed on administrative duty.

David Clarke is the outspoken sheriff of Milwaukee county. Monday he wrote about the riots that occurred in the city of Milwaukee over the weekend, blaming them on the left’s policies. From the Hill:
The failed progressive urban policy causes anger and resentment in people that simmers below the surface. The officer-involved-shooting was simply a catalyst that ignited the already volatile mixture of inescapable poverty, failing K-12 public schools, dysfunctional lifestyle choices like father absent homes, gang involvement, drug/alcohol abuse and massive unemployment.
Here are the facts: Milwaukee is run by progressive Democrats. Their decades-long Democrat regime has done nothing to reduce these urban pathologies, in fact, their strategies have exacerbated the situation by expanding the welfare state…
What happened Saturday night and again Sunday night had little to do with police use of force – it was a collapse of the social order where tribal behavior leads to reacting to circumstances instead of waiting for facts to emerge. The law of the jungle replaced the rule of law in Milwaukee Saturday night over an armed career criminal suspect who confronted police. Four other people were murdered in Milwaukee in separate incidents before the cop shooting and no riots ensued.
Sheriff Clarke also emphasized the point about the shootings that did not cause any riots in a tweet:Here are the facts: Milwaukee is run by progressive Democrats.

Milwaukee 6th poorest city in America.
School failure, one of the worst preforming in terms of maths, reading scores, attendance rates, graduation rates.
32% Black unemployment.
70% kids born out of wedlock.
This was created by decades of Democratic rule.
The middle classes have fled the city.
A city destroyed by liberalism.

[h=1]'If a gun was pointed at his head, what is a person to do?' Trump defends cop who shot dead armed Milwaukee man and says 'people shouldn't be rioting'[/h]
Donald Trump emphatically defended the Wisconsin police officer who shot and killed Sylville Smith at a traffic stop, prompting two days of riots.
Trump referenced early statements by law enforcement that Smith, who had a criminal record, pointed a gun at the officer, in comments to Fox News just hours before he headed to Milwaukee for an event with local law enforcement.
'If you believe a gun was pointed at his head, maybe ready to be fired, what is a person supposed to do?' Trump asked.
'We need strong, swift and very fair law and order," Trump told the network.

Trump defended the officer who shot Smith. The officer hasn't yet been identified, but like Smith he is black.
'What is a person supposed to do?' Trump said. 'You're supposed to talk him out of it?'
'So I would think so, we'll find out because they have a tape, as I understand. But the gun was pointed at his head, supposedly ready to be fired, I think that, who can have a problem with that?'
Then he hedged saying, 'Now, that's what the narrative is. Maybe it's not true. If it is true, people shouldn't be rioting.'
