Radio entry: L.A. Race Riots

Hello, I'm standing here in L.A. where big riots broke out during the last hours.
The cause was perhaps a misunderstanding. An African American girl was shot by a Korean American shop owner who thought the girl would try to steal an orange juice.
There had been racial tensions before between Korean Americans and African Americans.
Behind of me you can see that here is nothing but chaos. The police isn't able to stop the violence and the brutality and here are a lot of zivilists who got innocent victims. The people are scared and feel helpless and they' ve only two questions: Why and why don't the police do sth.?
This was Sarah Miller for Channel 7
