The Chicago Riots - a photo on Flickriver

The Chicago Riots

Last night, a mob of angry protesters stormed a Euroean Union safehouse in uptown Chicago.

There was only a small squad of EU soldiers defending the safehouse, but the US Miltary and Chicago Police Department were quick to arrive on the scene and disband the riots. Unfortunately for the European Union squad inside the safehouse, angry protesters climbed the fence and attacked them.

14 have been arrested after climbing the fence and breaching the safehouse. Authorities are looking into the issue and are trying to determine who was the cause of this riot. They think that the EU's presence in Chicago helped to escalate the high tension that the American citizens have on the European forces.

No leads have been found into who was behind the car bombing. Authorities suspect it may be DARKWATER trying to take advantage of the turmoil.

Eight civilians were injured and one EU soldier was put in the hospital during the attack. Tragically, a US Soldier was caught in the blast. Staff Sergeant Jonathan Roberts was caught in the blast and was killed. He was 31. The EU soldier is in critical condition, but is stable.
