This was not policing a protest, this was instigating a riot. Pure and simple. The protest was peaceful and a mother with a young child was standing on the corner moments before 2 cop cars barreled straight through. #blm #BLMMOVEMENT #JusticeForGeorgeFloyd #brooklynprotest #nyc pic.twitter.com/GcHmK63w1M

I am heartbroken and disgusted to see one of my family members a young black man w/his hands up peacefully protesting and an NYPD officer pulls down his mask and pepper sprays him. @NYCSpeakerCoJo @BPEricAdams @FarahNLouis @JumaaneWilliams @NewYorkStateAG @NYPDShea cc: @EOsyd pic.twitter.com/tGK5XWS0bt

Multiple police officers from inside the NYPD told me that this officer who assaulted the young woman is Vincent J. D’Andraia is the 73rd Precinct.

They said he brutalizes Black people all over Brownsville.

And so does NYPD Commander Craig Eldelman, who is in the white shirt. pic.twitter.com/z2wJLq8Y3T
