There's a guy on militaryphotos.net who was at the scene and posted updates in near-real time "a stray bullet just hit my office window, now security is telling us to GTFO" According to him, the riot-control guys were part of the internal security service. They were supposed to be one of the most feared and well-funded agencies in the region (thus the duded-up AKs and Western-style gear), but didn't have the (heart/nerve/stones) to fire on their own countrymen. So they fled, leaving behind vans full of equipment. About 2000 rioters then stormed their headquarters and took about 100 guns, including AK-74s, Krinks, Dragunovs, PKM machine guns and RPGs.
Hum, I think thats how it would go down here too.
