PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WLNE) – Families in Providence claim more than 20 children were injured after being beaten and maced by Providence police officers on Tuesday night.
The families said in a press conference Thursday that police responded to Sayles Street in Providence after a fight broke out between adult neighbors. They said the officers then began to mace and beat children aged 1 to 17 years old “without warning.”
“We were at our property, they were at their property, they lined up behind you guys like we were getting ready to go for war,” said Taffii Moore, the mother of three alleged victims. “They attacked us. They attacked our children, they attacked everybody that was in this home. If you were recording, they attacked, they pepper sprayed.”
