In those seven days more than 100 businesses had been vandalized or looted, demonstrators had set 505 arson fires, 36 people were injured, and there was one person dead. That death was of a 72 year old woman named Mary Amplo. Mary had been inside her home when 5 men showed up throwing Molotov cocktails into her home.
