>WASHINGTON (CNN) -- FBI agents were raiding sites in Miami, Florida, on Thursday in connection with a domestic terrorism investigation, law enforcement sources said.

The FBI said one search warrant was being executed in the Liberty City area of Miami. Officials said no weapons or bomb-making materials had been found in the searches so far.

"We are conducting a number of arrests and searches, and we'll have more about that when the operation is completed, probably tomorrow morning," FBI Director Robert Mueller told CNN's Larry King in an interview to be broadcast Thursday.

Furious Blacks threw bricks, rocks, and bottles at White suburban motorists who had to drive through Liberty City to reach a main Miami highway. Also, an apparently peaceful protest, sponsored by the NAACP, failed to produce a speaker. Soon, the discouraged crowd joined in the violence, attacking the Dade County Department of Public Safety headquarters and local White-owned businesses. Miami police and the National Guard restored order with roadblocks and guns. By the time the rioting ceased the following morning, 855 people had been arrested and eighty million dollars worth of property damaged. In the skirmishes between Blacks and White motorists, eight White people and ten African-Americans had died. The catalyst for this event occurred in December 1979.
