well, it looks like it has settled down for right now, but the night is still young...
prior to the police ramping up, there were crowds all over, walking mostly on boths sides of the street. the crowd started to move on to the street, and the police started to tell everyone to get back on the sidewalks.
I'm not sure what the original incident was, but all of a sudden, the camera switched to show the police rushing into the area, telling the protesters to disperse, as things started to be thrown at the police.
the noise maker and a bunch of vehicles were used to move people off the street, then some of them went off down to what is thought to have been a market down the street where something was happening, and things started to calm down to the stand off that we have here.

Maybe they’ve completed their back to school looting.
