Walnut creek as you said for much of the afternoon things are pretty peaceful. The message out here was positive. Lots of Police Officers were also here but as we got into the night things got a little dicey out here police tell us there was some vandalism to buildings in the downtown area, several arrests were also made and some officers and protesters were also in some scott killing thousands of people were involved in this protest it started at civic park across from city hall and eventually marched through the streets people were Holding Signs and chanting calling for justice for george floyd and others who have been killed by police in most spots around downtown protesters were met with lots of Police Officers north main from target down through Broadway Plaza had been guarded by police sent it closed on sunday night because of looters who ransacked several stores protesters tell us however they are against that kind of behavior because it overshadows what day are trying to like theres a bunch of crazy people shrieking in its not its people are taking advantage this is protest. Im here because our black men are dying all of the nation. Its you know its not by chance that you know theyre getting shot, i believe im because it has to do the race. One protesters returned to the police line at North Broadway where they were asking officers to take a knee with them instead reminded people that the 06 00pm curfew was in effect and they needed to leave some scuffling that happened with officers which led to tear gas being several people including myself and my photographer shawn had to get out of the area we were tear it was something that shocked a lot of people considering it was pretty put a peaceful for most of the day. People were surprised at first to see the officers eventually taken but that was so that they could put gas masks on and then eventually tossed tear gas canisters into the crowd, this is the scene right now that were looking at the area pretty much cleared out we havent seen many protesters over the 45 minutes or so we did see mutual aid police from el serino san pablo and surrounding areas, leaving this area either heading back to their Respective Police departments or heading to oakland where we understand there are thousands of protesters that are still there protesting against Racial Injustice in for george of course we will be sure to keep track of whats happening here throughout the night in walnut creek get anything else does end up and you could be sure that will be here to report to you and so dan theres a 6 oclock curfew tonight in walnut creek. How did that happen 1 6 oclock struck in is that what led to the confrontations what turned it from these fulton on and the tear gas is it that police were trying to clear people out to go home and they didnt want to do that what happened. Right thats seen that that was what we observed was that people it was a Smaller Group of people that eventually came to what was a police line right behind us there at the intersection of North Broadway and civic drive. Police told people they had to disperse it was already past 6 oclock at this point officers were telling people you know, heres your 5 minute window we need you to leave this area people refused to disperse officers went forward on them telling people to back out telling people to get out of the area and even at points says reporters were being told by Police Officers that we had to get out of the area but we were trying to document what was happening here. But they wanted us to get out of the area our live truck at one point eventually getting stock sort of in the fray, but eventually we got everything back here. But yeah that. Thats what ended up with protestors eventually getting into the face of some Police Officers and Police Officers eventually scuffling and there you have a tear gas ends up getting tossed into the crowd yet dan it seems relatively quiet now. But of course weve been seeing all over cities across the country and really him begins after dark are you being warned that there. Might be another outbreak. Oh we we havent really seeing much in terms of Police Officers really doing much other than having some of these roadblocks signs that are set up here in this area we have to go over to north main street to see if theres more of a Police Presence thats there on the big understanding that that we have is as you mentioned when the night goes down when the night falls here in walnut creek people are concerned that there would be more damage that would happen to the Broadway Plaza area, im sure police are going to be monitoring the situation roads continue to be closed off. In this area. So if people do come through they will be probably met with Police Officers and tie it seems like people have gone home. Dan thorn live for us tonight in walnut creek stay safe and. Thank you for that dan alluded to this because. There is another protest is happening right now in oakland and its a large one night been very peaceful up until oakland under curfew at the moment this afternoon, youre looking at video from earlier today. Couple 1000 people gathered outside of oakland technical high school. On many students were in the crowd as you can see theyre very young group the group then walk to the area around city hall. In addition to signs protesters and theyre also wearing face masks to prevent the further spread. 19. If the city or state refuses to take the actions that are necessary to defend the life and property of their residents. Then i will deploy the United States military and quickly solve the problem for them. And that this was the scene in washington dc earlier tonight while President Trump addressed the nationwide protests which are calling for justice for George Floyd Police are firing tear gas at Peaceful Protesters as the president told the nation. He supports Peaceful Demonstrations, but condemns the acts of violenee. And while those protesters were being cleared out President Trump finished up his statement but refused to take questions from reporters. The reason those Peaceful Protesters were removed from Lafayette Park right near the white house is because right after the president made his remarks. He made a short walk to Saint Johns Episcopal Church for a photo opportunity. He held a bible up right in front of the church pose for the cameras, american president s have used Saint Johns Church for more than 200 years says their own its known as the president s church. Last night though part of that church was set on fire. After the president s visit to the church tonight. The bishop of the Episcopal Diocese in washington said she was outraged by his move. Let me be clear. The president just use a bible and i think that accident today, a christian tradition and one of the churches of my diocese without permission. And in her message at a critical to the teachings of jesus and everything that archer to stand for and to do so as you just said he sanctioned the use of tear gas by Police Officers in riot gear to clear the church died. I am outraged. This it said she didnt know that he was going to come also noted that he didnt say a prayer. Went on to criticize the president for also failing to acknowledge the agony that the country is experiencing when he made his remarks, especially agony in communities of color week.
