:!: Mob fires upon Capitol Building
Today, policemen lined the courtyard of the Capitol Building as huge protests broke out around it. The protests were in reaction to Sharjah’s handling of the current political problems. Some were upset that Chancellor Khayrat suspended Congress, others were upset over what Congress was amending the constitution to be, others were upset that Congress didn’t fight Khayrat and pass their amendments.
The protests were surprisingly very civil, just holding signs and shouting. Regardless, Khayrat was nowhere to be seen and most Congressmen left the building when their powers were suspended. About four hours into the protest, shots were fired at the courtyard of the Capitol Building. As soon as the shots were fired, mass hysteria erupted and for more than two hours chaos broke out, in the chaos, the shooter or shooters escaped and the police currently have no trail. No one was injured during the protests and subsequent hysteria. The bullet fired shattered a window and put a hole into a painting in the Capitol Building, no serious damage was done.
Chancellor Khayrat responded in a speech stating that he knows that times are rough and people are suffering, but this isn’t the time to have mobs forming outside of the Capitol. He said his administration is doing everything it can to ensure that the third constitutional reform is the last and forms a government that is effective and powerful. Khayrat ultimately called for patient, but how patient are we?
