Protesters took to the streets following the deadly officer-involved shooting. A demonstration that began peacefully Saturday morning outside the Wendy's where Brooks was shot became violent once the sun went down. 

Demonstrators marched onto nearby Interstate 75 and blocked traffic while the Wendy’s at the shooting scene was set ablaze and gutted by flames.
