Chinese anti police riot 1923


February 16, 1923 - 150 angry Chinese surrounded and assaulted two cops in Chinatown. Constable Ennis felt a bullet fly by his ear, one of ten shot at the cops in Chinatown that night. Constable Thivierge was bit savagely by a Chinaman and was kicked repeatedly by the crowd of 150. The cops were at the club on Lagauch busting a guy named Toy One. They found three containers of cocaine in a match box. Toy One claimed innocence.
