They're trying to break into Uptown Pantry. The boards are giving them trouble.

Gonna edit this for a bit as to not shit up the thread too much.
Cops have just been dispatched to clear the alarm there. A chemical supply/storage building is on fire and billowing dark black smoke. Numerous other buildings are on fire and police are saying they can't get to most of them.
Multiple reports of people hiding in bushes uptown and ambushing people/police. Apparently a couple national guardsmen have been hospitalized. The police radio is absolutely non stop. It hasn't been this hard to keep up since week 1. There's no way this doesn't dominate the news cycle for at least a week.
As I'm typing, joggers are trying to set a gas station on fire and they're responding to an emergency shutoff call. To be fair, all the cops and dispatch sound super calm.
Fire said they're having trouble with water pressure in the city because they're running so many hoses. "There's basically two blocks on fire." He's also asking for people to be relieved due to exhaustion.
National guard has apparently "locked down" uptown and crowds have started to disperse. Nothing specific.
720 59th Place, multiple reports of natural gas smells. "Shenanigans" on 60th and 52nd? Inside lingo I'm guessing lol.
After they've used it a few times, I think shenanigans means destruction of property or breaking and entering. Nevermind. They have a Shenanigans restaurant lol.
Maybe a dozen or so mixed robberies/burgularies. They just doxed a couple black dudes but I don't know what it's in reference to.
2200 block of (6th/Smith?) street, mob is attacking firefighters trying to put a flaming roof out. Police are in route. Another unit in route to a burglary at Menard's. Menard's stacked pallets of roofing shingles and tiles in front of their doors as preparation for tonight.
Shots fired called over the radio. Said they only have 8 cars available. More dispatched to Target where windows have been smashed out.
