Eighteen-year-old Antonio Gwynn was watching live streams of the rioting and destruction on Bailey Avenue in his hometown of Buffalo, New York. It was 2 a.m., and Gwynn was simply unable to stand by and do nothing about it.

“I felt disgusted. My nerves were bad,” he told ABC of the violence that took place on Monday night. “They’re destroying a city that could actually be very beautiful.”
