‘Federal police used munitions on peaceful protestors’: DC mayor rips ‘shameful’ attack

The mayor of Washington, DC joined the chorus of voices blasting federal law enforcement for opening fire on protesters for President Donald Trump to hold a photo-op.


"I imposed a curfew at 7pm. A full 25 minutes before the curfew [and without] provocation, federal police used munitions on peaceful protestors in front of the White House, an act that will make the job of

DC Police Department officers more difficult," Mayor Muriel Bowser posted on Twitter.
