PITTSBURGH (KDKA) – Three people were arrested and four officers suffered minor injuries during a clash between Donald Trump supporters and protesters. Trump held a rally at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center Wednesday night. The mood outside the building was tense even before the Republican presidential candidate arrived. Police set up a corridor outside the Convention Center entrance, separating the two sides. Following the rally, there were more shouting matches as demonstrators confronted Trump supporters leaving the building, According to the criminal complaint, several officers were working a “skirmish line” between Trump supporters and “anarchist members in masks” and protesters. At one point, the anarchists/protesters began using pepper spray on the officers while trying to get to the Trump supporters. At least two officers were pepper-sprayed. One of those officers was also allegedly kicked in the back of the knees by Kennon Hooper, 31, of West Oakland. The officer fell to the ground and was kicked once more by Hooper. Hooper resisted arrest, but was forcibly handcuffed. A female protester jumped on the back of an officer while they were trying to arrest Hooper. That woman has been identified as Lisa Cuyler, 27, of Polish Hill, and she was detained without incident. While that was happening, a man wearing a black mask and black hat grabbed the protective vest of a police sergeant and attempted to fight him. A female officer attempted to take the man into custody, but he resisted. Both fell to the ground and the officer suffered a cut to her hand and an injury to her shoulder. The suspect was eventually taken into custody and has been identified as Maxwell Yearick, 29, of Perry South. All three suspects were taken to the Allegheny County Jail. Hooper and Yearick are facing charges of riot, aggravated assault and resisting arrest. Cuyler is being charged with riot and aggravated assault. Meanwhile, four officers were treated at the scene by medics. Additionally, a video has surfaced of a police officer allegedly shoving Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reporter Megan Guza to the ground outside of the rally. Mayor Bill Peduto said his office is aware of the incident and the video has been shared with authorities. Poster Comment:

Yeah,causen hit bees add dim Billionaires out dere,pimp-in,doin dribe by shoot-tins,pumping out babies wid any bitch deys can git and not pay-in for dems,'n shit. NOTHING is ever the fault of anyone that is black or brown,it's always the fault of somebody white. Odd how that works out,huh? BOYCOTT PAYPAL AND CLOSE YOUR PP ACCOUNTS NOW! ENCOURAGE OTHERS TO DO SO,TOO! ISLAM MEANS SUBMISSION! Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012) American Indians had open borders. Look at how well that worked out for them.

Si vis pacem, para bellum Those who beat their swords into plowshares will plow for those who don't Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God. There are no Carthaginian terrorists. President Obama is the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people. --Clint Eastwood "I am concerned for the security of our great nation; not so much because of any threat from without, but because of the insidious forces working from within." -- General Douglas MacArthur
Blame Billionaires not Black and Brown Communities
