Chief: Detroit police prevented 'Seattle zone of lawlessness'
|
[DETROITNEWS] Officers used force to prevent protesters from setting up a "Seattle zone of lawlessness" during demonstrations that turned violent mostly peaceful Saturday, the city's police chief said Monday.bankrupt, increasingly impoverished, reliably Democrat, Detroit
... ruled by Democrats since 1962. A city whose Golden Age included the Purple Gang...
police chief James Craig made the comment while there are multiple internal investigations to determine whether any officers acted improperly during the skirmishes.
"I am not going to let any group set up a Seattle zone of lawlessness here in the city of Detroit," Craig said. "That is non-negotiable."
In Seattle, authorities allowed protesters to occupy several blocks for about two weeks until clearing the area in late June. There were at least two people killed and a sexual assault in the zone.
Craig said officers made 44 arrests Saturday after the group Detroit Will Breathe blocked the intersection of John R and Woodward and refused to leave following at least eight warnings. The coppers told the crowd to disperse because the gathering in the middle of the street constituted an illegal assembly, he said.
Sixteen of those arrested were Detroiters, Craig said. The others came from the Metro Detroit suburbs and Ann Arbor. One man who was arrested is from Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party,. All but one were released as of Monday, the chief said.
