WASHINGTON (AP) — A MAN in the nation’s capital said he sheltered about 70 protesters in his home all night after they got caught between police lines after curfew.
Rahul Dubey told WJLA-TV he was sitting on his porch around 8:30 p.m. last night when law enforcement officers began corralling protesters on his street. He let some sit with him, and helped others out through his back alley, but the situation then escalated when officers started pushing protesters to the ground and releasing pepper spray, creating a “human tsunami” into his home.Recommended VideosPowered by AnyClipDC resident offers refuge to nearly 100 protestersPlayUnmuteDuration 2:21Toggle Close Captions/Current Time 0:11Loaded: 75.83% FullscreenUp Next
