Chaotic scenes erupted on the Roebling Suspension Bridge as protesters demanding the release of detained former chaplain Ayman Soliman clashed with police. Demonstrators blocked traffic by standing in front of a jeep, banging on its hood, and refusing to clear the bridge. Videos show officers tackling protesters and subduing them amid open fistfights. Covington police called the blockade a “danger to all involved,” while activist group Ignite Peace condemned the police response as excessive. Fifteen arrests were made, with more citations issued by Cincinnati police.
