NYC Mayor says protest 'offenses must be prosecuted'

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio on Wednesday (October 28) responded to questions about protests in Brooklyn the night before.

New York police said one NYPD officer suffered "non-life threatening" injuries during the late night protests on October 27 following a deadly police shooting in Philadelphia of a Black man armed with a knife. Police vehicles were also damaged and some trash cans were set on fire in the demonstrations.
