According to the New York Daily News, a peaceful demonstration outside of Stonewall Inn in New York ended in police brutality on Thursday night.
The event has become a weekly staple for activists since the summer and features an array of LGBTQ+ people and speakers coming together to sing, speak on issues, and bring awareness to the community.
During Thursday’s demonstration, over 100 bicycle police officers were said to be present. While marching from Stonewall Inn to Union Square the protest quickly changed from peaceful to chaotic after police began charging demonstrators leading to at least three people being arrested.
