The students and non student demographic of youths, joined by old people and even little children have taken their wave of protests to government and public places, with some structures torched by the raging protesters. A Nike store in Tshwane was also looted during the protests.
Police say more than 500 people have been arrested for non-peaceful behaviour during the free education rallies.
A crowd of protesters were dispersed by grenades of tear gas outside South African President Jacob Zuma’s offices, in Pretoria, South Africa October 20,2016.

He said:
