Tacoma businesses looted by overnight vandals

After peaceful protests all weekend long in Tacoma, a group turned violent Monday night.

Small businesses got looted on Pacific Ave., including Indochine Asian Dining Lounge.

“It’s part of a larger movement, and we’re in a very powerful democracy, and this is part of the way people express themselves in a democracy,” said Russell Brinton, who owns the restaurant. “It’s painful in a personal sense, but in a political sense, it’s part of living in America.”

A group of people smashed windows as a protest over the death of George Floyd was coming to a close, according to Tacoma police. Then vandals ran across the street where they broke into and looted two more businesses.

Two suspects were arrested, and police are looking for others.
