A protester is taken into custody by a Cleveland police officer in a clash during demonstrations that followed the acquittal of police officer Michael Brelo. Brelo was charged with manslaughter in the November 2012 shooting deaths of two unarmed people.

CLEVELAND, Ohio — Cleveland police officers took at least three people into custody during protests following the Michael Brelo verdict.

Northeast Ohio Media Group reporters and photographers witnessed at least three people taken into custody following a clash with police about 6:20 p.m. outside Quicken Loans Arena.

Police officers showed pepper spray cans to others who rushed towards the fight.

Most protestors quickly dispersed and marched down Huron Avenue towards Progressive Field, where the Cleveland Indians and Cincinnati Reds just ended their game.

Cleveland police confirmed one arrest. They said a man threw an object through a window, injuring a woman at a bar. It's unclear if that's what caused the fight between police and protestors.

Officers followed the group in three lines: a line of mounted police officers, another with batons out and bulletproof vests and a third with riot gear.

Ever heard of Gary, Indiana? I had my fair share of inner city, leftist controlled cesspits while growing up! No thanks, you can keep your city!
