Several people broke into the police chief's house and burned it down early Friday, a few hours after a man died in police custody, authorities said.

Having come from a small town, its easy to see how word of this mans death and of what caused it could spread quickly. However, its odd to see this kind of violence in such a small town. The people who did this probably knew the Police Chief, maybe even on a first name basis. Its a shame that one mans death, which was probably his own fault, has to cause this kind of senseless violence to a man who wasn't directly involved.
