You can watch video below of frightened customers during a Rochester riot trying to get out of the way as Black Lives Matter rioters enter a downtown restaurant in Rochester, New York.

Although it started out as a peaceful protest, it became anything but when people chanting Black Lives matter stormed the restaurant and started tearing plates and glasses off tables, turning over chairs, and getting in the faces of customers who had, moments before, been sitting down for a meal.

The video went viral on social media, where it has been viewed millions of times.

People in Rochester are upset over the police-related death of Daniel Prude, who is seen in a video with a hood over his head during a police arrest and restraint. Officers have been suspended, and no final decision has been announced regarding the investigation. In the video, officers say that Prude told them he had coronavirus.

Here’s the video of the restaurant incident:
