By Arin Cotel-Altman City of Albany PUBLISHED 7:28 PM ET Apr. 15, 2021 PUBLISHED 7:28 PM EDT Apr. 15, 2021 SHARE Tensions remain high across the U.S. as the fallout from the death of Daunte Wright reverberates in communities both near and far. Here in the Capital Region, activists took their message to the streets, where they were met by Albany Police. What started as a peaceful protest for Daunte Wright in Albany's Townsend Park Wednesday afternoon turned into a clash between protesters and police outside Albany's South Station. Albany Police Chief Eric Hawkins says police were initially escorting peaceful protesters throughout the city to help with the flow of traffic. He says later on, people started provoking and attacking officers at the police's South Station, and says someone broke a glass door at the front of the building.
