Start a Riot

As soon as we turned the corner, I could see smoke everywhere: storefronts were on fire, people were running around with boatloads of merchandise in their hands, fighting, I mean, Monument Street was in total Manheim. All of Monument Street ablaze: it was like seeing something out of a movie; withal, uncle Bean spotted his friend, Smitty, running with the crowd; however, oddly enough, my uncle Bean seeing Smitty within that enormous crowd of people running. Furthermore, I knew that Smitty was an acquaintance from jail; he was his cell buddy from Jessup cut. Uncle Bean blew the horn as we came to an erupting stop: he came running and jumped in the front seat of my uncle's car while screaming, "Go, go, go." Just then, Smitty and an officer that was riding by locked eyes.
