The city of Detroit has launched a counter-suit against activist leaders of Black Lives Matter protests over the summer, alleging that they and the group Detroit Will Breathe conspired to cause damage to the city and its residents.
The city filed its counter-suit in September less than a month after Detroit Will Breathe, an activist group operating out of Detroit, sued the city government and its police force for allegedly violating protesters’ rights during the summer’s crackdowns on civil unrest. The city alleged the activists committed “civil conspiracy” to cause mayhem throughout Detroit and harm its residents, The Intercept reported on Monday.
