The Watts Riots of 1965
In the Watts community in 1965, riots erupted after a black man, Marquette Frye, was arrested for drunk driving. A crowd had formed and they began to fight back against the police because they believed they were assaulting Marquette and treating him unfairly. This caused a riot to form, which led to more police officers and members of the community to gather and riot. The Watts Riots lasted 6 days, and in total, 34,000 people joined. The riot resulted in 600 damaged buildings, 200 destroyed buildings, 3,500 people arrested, it caused 34 deaths, 1,032 injuries, and about $40 million in damages.
