D.C. Mayor Bowser Blames Outside Agitators As Cause Of Weekend Violence

Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser said that agitators from elsewhere had arrived in the District, intent on battling police. Bowser is seen here at a press conference earlier this month.

Some 70% of those arrested in weekend unrest came from outside the District, police say. Bowser says the U.S. attorney's office has failed to prosecute those who have been arrested in violence.
