ATLANTA — Investigators charged 23 people with domestic terrorism after dozens dressed in all black threw large rocks, bricks, Molotov cocktails and fireworks at officers at the site of a planned training facility, Atlanta police said Monday.
Only two of those arrested were from Georgia, according to the list of names released by police. As city and state leaders and police condemned the violence that broke out Sunday, police prepared for additional protests planned in the coming days.
Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp on Monday said those involved put “destruction and vandalism” over “legitimate protest.”
