UPDATED Photos INFO: Police use pepper spray on protesters in Washington DC







ABC's Michael Edison Hayden

Violence flared on some streets of Washington, D.C, today as at least some members of a group dressed head to toe in black allegedly smashed the windows of cars and store windows shortly before President Donald Trump took the oath of office.

The city's Metropolitan Police Department said it made numerous arrests following the alleged vandalism.

Police said an organized group marched through the northwest part of the city at around 10:30 a.m., and that "members of the group acting in a concerted effort engaged in acts of vandalism and several instances of destruction of property."

From the pictures, that is who they appear to be. Property damage turns a protest into a riot pretty quickly. We don't need these folks.
