A motorcyclist was injured Tuesday in a crash with an SUV on 8 Mile Road in Eastpointe, police said.

Tensions rose throughout the week and reached a crescendo Friday night as protests erupted in cities across America. In Minneapolis, leaders decided to evacuate a police precinct Thursday and surrender it to protesters who set it on fire. Los Angeles police arrested more than 500 protesters on Friday night. Youve got to defend that, said former Los Angeles Police Deputy Chief Michael Downing. In Los Angeles, the center of the uprising was an intersection, Florence and Normandie avenues, and the violence spiraled into five days of riots and fires.
