11:15 a.m.

Police Supt. David Brown said there were some protesters that came from out of town, but there were many people arrested who live in Chicago. He did not have a precise breakdown.  He dismissed critics who said police were focused on the downtown area.  He pointed to the large number of arrests police made in the neighborhoods.

11:10 a.m.

Brown described the strategy behind the looting, saying that looters at one point seemed to make it appear they would attempt to take over CPD headquarters, only to really intend to rip off a nearby store.

"I watched these looters strategically looting in one area only to try to flank our officers and hit the target they intended. There was an electronics store on the corner and this strategy was used by a crowd who came up intending to destroy the facility and burn the building. Our line officers held the backside of the headquarters for a larger crowd that wanted to get into our police headquarters. Looters do one thing to draw us one direction only for the purpose to distract us from the intended target from another area. Some of the intended targets were our officers we had an officer who had a heart attack yesterday," he said.

11 a.m.

Chicago Police Supt. Brown said there were 699 total arrests on Sunday, majority looters, with 461 of those arrests on South and West sides.

A total of 132 officers were injured.

There were 48 shootings, 17 people killed  and more than 64 guns recovered on Sunday, Brown said. It was not immediately clear how many of those shootings and fatalities were related to the violence.

"We will rebuild the city of Chicago," Mayor Lightfood said Monday morning.  She said the 911 center received 65,000 calls of service in a 24 hour period over the weekend. About 50,000 more than average. There were more than 10,000 calls for looting alone.
