The situation worsened when social services allegedly took away a child belonging to one of the families. It is reported that the child was abused in their own house and that is why the social services took away the child for their well being.

This infuriated the families in the neighborhood who started rioting on the streets. A police car was also allegedly flipped by the rioters. It is believed that the people involved in rioting are minority groups however it is not clear yet who all are behind this.
