Description

Washington DC, Jun 2 (EFE/EPA).- Thousands of people protesting police violence against African Americans remained on the streets of the US capital Tuesday minutes ahead of the 7.00 pm curfew announced by the municipal government.The crowds appeared to be significantly larger than on Monday, when federal law enforcement personnel resorted to tear gas, pepper spray, rubber bullets and flash-bang grenades to clear peaceful protesters from Lafayette Square, next to the White House, so President Donald Trump could walk to a nearby church to be photographed holding the Bible.The demonstrators who came out Tuesday marched toward the White House, but found Lafayette Park surrounded by a fence 2.5m (8ft) high.
