Anti-Trump demonstrators set fires, break windows in California

Demonstrators set fire to a likeness of Trump, smashed store windows and set garbage and tires on fire in Oakland

Protests against Donald Trump broke out in California's Bay Area late on Tuesday after the Republican candidate won the US presidential election, a Reuters witness and local media reported.



Demonstrators set fire to a likeness of Trump, smashed store front windows and set garbage and tires on fire in downtown Oakland, across the bay from San Francisco. A few miles away, University of California, Berkeley students protested on campus.



A demonstration also unfolded at the University of California, Davis where students blocked streets as they marched and chanted anti-Trump slogans and "You are not America, we are America," according to Twitter posts.



One protester in Oakland was struck by a vehicle after blocking a highway, local media reported.
