There was a riot last night in Haymarket Square. Many people were killed and injured. 8 police officers and several civilians were killed. Many police officers were injured as well as around 100 civilians.
The riot was just supposed to be a protest of the killing of two workers the night before. When the police arrived someone threw a bomb and killed those 8 officers. The police responded by firing into the crowd.
8 anarchists were arrested and convicted of conspiracy. There was no hard evidence against them however.
