Nationwide riots calling for the SNC's disbandment

At around 04:00 mobs gathered on most roads while chanting "Disband SNC". Officers were deployed to calm the riot as they face a rain of petrol bombs, while ambulances rush to the scene to administer first aid to the injured.
The riot soon erupted nationwide, where instances of violence occured due to rioters opening fire on officers on standby, causing multiple injuries. While the riots are going on, the Commissioner has made a statement to the press about the incident.
"The accusations made against us are as absurd as the claims that the Special Branch had trained a couple of capybaras to knock down Lefantchi Crime Family loyalists. Yes, we used force against criminal elements, however the force we used was reasonable and in compliance with Snowstone laws. We do not justify the support of criminals, as everyone knows that punishment swiftly follows crime. We ask those of you who are trying to justify their crimes to please wake up to the reality. Better yet, go and jatuh mati (drop dead) if you wish to continue that." –Cmsr Joseph Kai Yao Sip
As of now, 500 arrests were made for breach of public order, assault with a deadly weapon, and assaulting a constable in the execution of their duty.
