So I just told a police officer wielding a baton that im a reporter. He told me to “put this on Twitter”. Then he tightly handcuffed me with zip ties and he and another one mocked me while dragging me backward down two flights of stairs along with few dozen others arrested in MSB

I can only assume that, because @MaxMMarin tweeted it, a captain came by and said “are you Samantha?” and cut my ties off. So, Commissioner Outlaw’s order to stop arresting reporters covering stories is half working.

What service! The cops that ripped my notebook out of my hand left it in my bag. From my notes: now-arrested organizer A’Brianna Morgan, 26, was at the MSB because she found city leaders claims they support Black Lives Matter hollow....

“it’s hard for me to believe they had a change of heart so soon after they used tear gas canisters and rubber bullets against myself and other protesters on 676,” she said. She planned to stay at least til Mayor or Managing Director accepted a letter but was arrested w/in an hour
