| 释义 |
The Camden Riot of 1971 was a public disorder in Camden, New Jersey that occurred following the death of a Puerto Rican motorist at the hands of white police officers. When the officers were not charged, Hispanic residents took to the streets and called for the suspension of those involved. The officers were ultimately charged, but remained on the job and tensions soon flared. On August 20, riots erupted and fifteen major fires were set before order was restored. Ninety people were injured and city officials ended up suspending the officers, who were later acquitted by a jury.[1][2] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.dvrbs.com/camden/camdennj-riotof1971.htm|title=CAMDEN NJ - The Riot of 1971|work=dvrbs.com|accessdate=27 June 2015}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://articles.philly.com/1991-08-18/news/25805548_1_sniper-fire-riot-city-hall|title=A Riot That Redefined A City 20 Years Ago, Camden Erupted|work=philly-archives|accessdate=27 June 2015}} 4 : 1971 in New Jersey|1971 riots|Riots and civil disorder in New Jersey|History of Camden, New Jersey |
