The San Antonio Police Department detained a protester outside the Marriott Rivercenter Saturday morning after a planned demonstration took place during Turning Point USA’s Women’s Leadership Summit.
A dozen protestors were face-to-face with police as they held the property line, while protestors chanted, held signs, and used noisemakers.
“Our goal was to disrupt and make as much noise as we could to let her know she (Erika Kirk) was not welcome,” Organizer for People’s Verdict David Maldonado said.
Outside of the arrest, demonstrators remained peaceful as attendees from the summit walked past and debated with protestors.
There is no other planned protest for the remainder of the weekend as the event continues.
