BROOKLYN CENTER, Minn. Seventeen-year-old Aaliyah Martin lives in one of the apartments directly across the street from the Brooklyn Center Police Department. “Not the first night, but the second night they threw tear gas over here and it landed at the bottom of the porch,” she says.
Her home was caught in between the protesters and police. “Literally, the tear gas that they threw over here, came right below the balcony,” she says.
