Officers used batons and tasers against protesters in the square, including some who had not entered the park at all. At least three people were tased, according to witnesses and video of the protest.
In video obtained by the Guardian, one woman is tased by a male officer while she is running away. She hits the pavement face-down and is arrested.

In the video, an officer proceeds to deploy his taser on the handcuffed woman.

While officers were arresting a man who was filming, Kinsey was “body-slammed to the ground head-first, and my skull hit the pavement”. Police then tried to arrest Kinsey, who was concussed, and was too injured to stand.
This is happening in the city’s crown jewel of tourist traps. They won’t let the protests disrupt their money maker.
