[b]If[/b] they joined in with the rioters, I don't see the issue here. I am holding judgement on this until I have all the facts, instead of jumping to conclusions.

I didn't jump to conclusions...I'm not saying which side is right or wrong... Just posting so others can see and it will be something to keep an eye on... Most likely charges will be dropped but still looks bad and other reporters may not be so willing to get arrested to cover a story...
