Pro-Palestinian agitators attack police as riot erupts in Dem-run city, officials say (Boston)

Between 200 and 300 people participated in a demonstration in downtown Boston on Tuesday night after what began as a pro-Palestinian protest quickly turned into a riot.

In total, 13 people were arrested after police say people in the group became violent toward police officers. The agitators also blocked an intersection, according to police.

"When officers attempted to move the group to the sidewalk to allow emergency vehicles to pass, protesters surrounded police cruisers, kicked vehicle doors and resisted dispersal efforts. Several officers were assaulted during this period, including one struck in the face. Protesters also ignited smoke devices and flares, further endangering officers and bystanders," the Boston Police Department said in a statement.

Police said "as violence escalated," more officers were deployed to the area while agitators "continued to resist dispersal."

During the melee, police officers reported that rioters were forcibly removing and damaging their equipment.

"During the disturbance, officers reported equipment being forcibly removed or damaged, including body-worn cameras, radios, bicycles and other duty gear," the agency said.

Boston police made arrests for unlawful assembly, violent resistance and the obstruction of emergency response efforts.

Osama Khatib, 26, Roder Atwood, 21, Atalanta Carrig-Braun, 20, Haley MacIntyre, 24, Madeline Weikel, 27, Jacob Pettigrew, 22, Amun Prophet, 25, Laith Hintzman, 19, Benjamin Choucroun, 20, Owen Woodcock, 26, Prahlad Iyengar, 25, Styx Hatch, 19 and Gabrielle Smith, 28, were arrested on Tuesday night.

Thank you very much and God bless you.

They obviously didn't hear about the peace deal. That's a shame.

Boston has gone over the edge.

Soon they will need a national guard deployment.

“... protesters surrounded police cruisers, kicked vehicle doors ...”

Fed uniparty handouts may be the worst thing that ever happened to this country over the decades, however I’m for free wheelchairs after these criminals get their knees shattered by baseball bats and can never walk normally again.

Bunch of spoiled, affluent white boys playing stupid Antifa games, and down with the Pali "cause".

Idiots. But that's modern day Harvard for you.

Prahlad Iyengar,25

Fwiw, previously he had been suspended from MIT due to a pro Palestinian essay he published in a student magazine.

Seems to have a lot of free time on his hands to riot.

Mayor Wu would agree with her kindred spirit mayor from Ballsaresore.

“I made it very clear that I work with the police and instructed them to do everything that they could to make sure that the protesters were able to exercise their right to free speech,” Rawlings-Blake said. “It’s a very delicate balancing act. Because while we try to make sure that they were protected from the cars and other things that were going on, we also gave those who wished to destroy space to do that as well. And we worked very hard to keep that balance and to put ourselves in the best position to de-escalate.”

Palestine isn't the whole war. Islam is still at war against all infidels. As they have been since the year one of the Muslim calendar.

In effect, war against the United States for centuries before there ever were the United States.
