Detroit Police Arrest Some Protesting In-Person Classes

DETROIT, MI — At least nine people protesting Detroit Public Schools in-person summer classes were arrested Thursday morning while blocking district school buses, according to multiple reports.

Thursday's protests were the fourth straight day of protests, as people demonstrated against the district's in-person summer classes, which began on Monday.

As police led protesters away in custody, other people demonstrating chanted "let them go," according to Fox2.

A civil lawsuit was brought against the district Wednesday, filed by teachers, student and parents and request an emergency injunction to end in-person classes immediately, according to WXYZ.
