An ISP trooper was driving southbound on I-90 near Division St. and noticed congestion on the exit ramp and eastbound traffic on Division completely stopped. When the trooper approached the intersection of Division and Elston there were several vehicles blocking the intersection and people engaging in reckless driving stunts.
A mob of approximately 100 people surrounded the trooper’s squad car, jumping on its hood, shattering the windshield, kicking the car, and tossing rocks, bricks, and fireworks
