Just as a point of clarification - that article seems to be talking about protests on Tuesday, whereas this article is talking about protests Wednesday night. My general understanding is that there was a permitted and police escorted protest Monday near the DNC convention site, the one in your article Tuesday which wasn’t permitted and went near the Israeli consulate and ended up with hospitalized protesters, and then this one Wednesday which also wasn’t permitted but marched more towards the DNC convention site and (to the best of my knowledge at this point) didn’t end up with anyone needing hospitalization.
The things that article describes happening to protesters and journalists are unacceptable and demand police accountability, but it seems like those things didn’t happen Wednesday night for what that’s worth.
