A protest and counter-protest between BLM supporters and statue supporters. Groups shouted at one another but stayed separate. After the protest, BLM supporters marched down the street followed by police.
Footage shows violence during the arrest of a protester as 3 police officers wearing hoods that resemble balaclavas. They tackle the protester to the ground. One officer then kneels on his back to make the arrest. A fourth officer in a patrol uniform comes to assist. The man is seen bleeding from the face. The masked officers do not appear to be wearing badges.
Police charged him with disobeying a lawful order and resisting arrest.
