Handcuffs And Pepper Spray: Witnessing The NYC Protest Over George Zimmerman Acquittal [VIDEO]
Outrage erupted across the country Saturday night as George Zimmerman was acquitted of murder for the killing of unarmed teenager Trayvon Martin. Most protests were peaceful, but there were some violent incidents. Flags were burnt in Oakland, Calif., rubber bullets were used in Los Angeles and multiple arrests were made in New York City.
The New York arrests were witnessed first-hand by senior reporter Connor Sheets. He sat down to tell us what exactly he saw, the mood of the protest and whether it has the momentum to continue.
With Zimmerman already receiving death threats and angry threads on Twitter, many are now left to wonder what will happen to him now.
