WASHINGTON, June 5 (UPI) -- About 50 people took part in a dancing protest at the Jefferson Memorial in Washington, forcing police to close a portion of the landmark for a short time.
No one was arrested during Saturday's event, which was held to protest the arrests of five people for dancing at the memorial last weekend, WTOP-TV, Washington, reported. U.S. Park Police were investigating the use of force and other actions by police in those arrests.
