“Detroit Will Breathe organizer Tristan Taylor said police in riot gear attacked protesters between 12:15 and 12:30 a.m. Sunday after marchers blocked Woodward Avenue, between John R and Grand River in the heart of downtown, to vehicular traffic.
Taylor said the gathering was peaceful — even festive — at the end of a night of speakers and marching through downtown. Sometime after midnight, police in riot gear moved in, firing tear gas and making mass arrests.”
