Around a dozen people were arrested after demonstrators chained themselves near an escalator inside the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Baltimore, Sunday, in protest against the Maryland Fraternal Order of Police on the first night of the police union's four-day conference.
Protesters, organised by the Baltimore Bloc and the Black Youth Project 100, locked their arms together and carried signs reading "Abolish Racist FOP." Police could be seen arresting protesters for allegedly trespassing on the property.
The protest comes after last weeks scathing report on the Baltimore Police Department citing a pattern of civil rights violations and a policy of racial discrimination.
