To provide context to the activity prior to arrest. The female was part of the larger rally. As police were moving to try and engage the group in their vehicles, she pulled items in the street to block their path. She then threw rocks at officers and was charged with Riot, Interfering and Resisting Arrest. She was arrested based upon her actions prior to that video running. After arrest officers determined she was a juvenile, she was released to her parents and cited in lieu of custody.


There are others seen in the video in regular street clothes acting aggressively and they are not, as asserted, EPD officers. They have no affiliation with our police department. There was also an assertion the female was subject of a taser and that is untrue.


Our goal was to try and make strategic arrests to avoid using crowd control agents.


The following individuals were arrested during the riot:


Emma Haskins, age 26, Arrested for Riot


Daniel Sascha Newman, age 32, Arrested for Riot and Interfering
