The Riverwalk riot occurred at the Riverwalk Apartments Complex in Greenville, North Carolina on Halloween, October 31, 2014. About 3000 revelers participated in the riot, which lasted for hours and was heavily documented. Multiple recordings of the riot are on YouTube and vine. Police used tear gas to disperse the revelers, estimated at about 3000 people. A stop sign was pulled out. The sign was used to break all the windows on a transit bus. Later people stormed on top and destroyed it by the attack. Cars had their windshields busted out. Some climbed telephone polls. Many were injured. The following day the East Carolina University released a briefing to the student body. The TV show Guy Code made a reference to the bus destroyed at the riots at one of their stand ups.
