Friday, 60 veterans were detained following veterans protest against Army parade on Capitol Hill, 1 injured

The group had just concluded a protest in front of the Supreme Court building and were preparing to take photos near the Capitol building when the incident occurred.

The veterans sat down on the steps of the Capitol with signs that read "Veterans say military off our streets" and "Money for people, not parades."

News cameras caught the moment officers standing behind another gate on the steps of the Capitol building detained several people, and pushed one woman veteran down the steps.

This was not part of the #NoKings protests
