FARGO — A Wilmington, Del., man will spend almost half a year in jail for his part in a May 30 riot that injured several law officers and damaged businesses in Fargo.
Califf Quahe McClain, 24, was sentenced Monday, May 17, after pleading guilty to conspiracy to commit criminal mischief. Other charges of arming rioters, engaging in a riot, attempt to commit simple assault on a police officer and disobedience of public safety orders under riot conditions were dismissed.
McClain was among a group of more than 30 people charged in connection to the downtown Fargo riots.
Court documents alleged McClain threw rocks at officers and went into JL Beers, one of the businesses rioters looted. He was also seen breaking into a cash register, a criminal complaint said.
