Police use pepper spray on ‘unlawful’ protesters at cultural festival in Charlotte
Police closed a major Charlotte road on Saturday and deployed pepper spray on a crowd at what officers called an “unlawful” civil rights protest at a cultural festival on private property.
They did not identify the cultural festival…..[but it HAS been identified. I’ll skip to the salient part of the article.]
Police said they arrested seven people. Three men were charged with impeding traffic, and a woman was charged with impeding traffic and inciting to riot, according to CMPD.
Protesters told WSOC that two groups showed up at the scene: One group supported the government of Eritrea, bordered by the Red Sea on the Horn of Africa.
The other group claimed the president of the country is a brutal dictator, according to the station.
