While protests on Friday and overnight against the Supreme Court's decision overturning Roe v. Wade were largely peaceful, law enforcement used tear gas on a crowd in Arizona and there were some arrests in New York.
In Arizona, tear gas was used to disperse a crowd protesting the Supreme Court ruling in front of the state capitol late Friday, authorities said.
"Troopers deployed tear gas after a crowd of protesters repeatedly pounded on the glass doors of the State Senate Building," Arizona Department of Public Safety spokesperson Bart Graves told CNN.
"The crowd moved across the street to the Wesley Bolin Plaza where tear gas was deployed after a monument was vandalized," he said.
Arizona State Rep. Sarah Liguori tweeted from inside the building, "while working inside we were interrupted by the sound of bangs and smell of tear gas. Protestors cleared from the Capitol."
Arizona State Rep. Justin Wilmeth also tweeted late Friday, writing: "We are still at work finishing a couple of policy items, including a big water bill. We’ve had protestors here for a few hours now. As I heard it, some either banged on Senate windows or broke them and then DPS launched smoke bombs to disperse the crowds. Pure chaos for a bit."
Wilmeth shared a photo of a "palm tree apparently on fire after the 'mostly peaceful' protests at the Capitol tonight."
In New York, at least 20 people were "taken into custody with charges pending," after demonstrators marched through New York City streets in protest of the Supreme Court’s decision, according to police.
New York Police Department officers apprehended the individuals "within the vicinity of Bryant Park, West 42 Street and 6th Avenue," a NYPD spokesperson told CNN Saturday morning. No further details were provided on the arrests.
In Los Angeles, abortion rights supporters in Los Angeles marched on the 110 Freeway and stopped traffic as they protested the Supreme Court decision on Friday.
In Washington, DC, hundreds of people on both sides of the issue gathered outside the Supreme Court on Friday to react to the ruling. One abortion rights advocate climbed to the top of the Frederick Douglass Memorial Bridge on Friday. Guido Reichstadter posted videos and photos of himself on social media from the top of the bridge where he unfurled a large green banner. Green is recognized as a symbol of abortion rights. "I climbed up the top of the Frederick Douglas Memorial bridge this morning because the Supreme Court is engaged in an unconstitutional treasonous attack on the rights of women in this country," Reichstadter said in a TikTok video he posted from the top of the bridge.
Additional protests are expected this weekend.
