Katherine Clarke’s daughter arrested in clash with police at Boston protest 

The daughter of Home Minority Whip Katherine Clark (D-Mass.) was arrested on Sunday in a conflict with police at a protest in Boston, Mass., for allegedly spray-painting a monument and assaulting an officer.

“Final night time, my daughter was arrested in Boston, Massachusetts. I like Riley, and this can be a very troublesome time within the cycle of pleasure and ache in parenting. This will probably be evaluated by the authorized system, and I’m assured in that course of,” Clark said on Twitter. 

Boston police arrested 23-year-old Riley Dowell on Saturday night time after allegedly defacing the Parkman Bandstand Monument within the Boston Widespread with spray paint, in response to a police division launch, which used a earlier title.

The graffiti Dowell tagged on the monument included “NO COP CITY” and “ACAB,” an acronym for “All Cops Are Bastards,” in response to police.

An officer was reportedly hit within the face throughout Dowell’s arrest as some 20 different protesters surrounded the officers, shouting profanities by way of megaphones and blocking site visitors on the close by public road.

Dowell was charged with harm of property by graffiti, destruction of non-public property and assault via a harmful weapon and can seemingly be arraigned in Boston Municipal Courtroom.
