A police officer in St. Paul, Minnesota, suffered a broken spine after a protester allegedly dropped a concrete slab on him during a Black Lives Matter protest.
Protesters shut down Interstate 94 for several hours over the weekend after the police shooting death of Philando Castile last week.
“We were just informed that the officer who had a concrete block dropped on his head during I-94 riot has broken vertebrae,” the department tweeted. The identity of the officer was not revealed.
