What Are Some Examples Of Protest Injuries?
Protest injuries can vary widely. They often result from police abuse. See, for example:
- Blunt force trauma: This occurs from batons or physical force. It can cause bruises, fractures and concussions.
- Tear gas exposure: Tear gas can cause severe respiratory issues. It can also cause skin and eye irritation.
- Rubber bullet wounds: Rubber bullets can cause welts, broken bones, disfigurement and internal damage.
- Head injuries: These can occur from falls or being struck, possibly contributing to brain damage.
- Wrongful arrest and imprisonment: Detention or arrest without cause is a violation of your rights that may involve emotional distress and legal costs.
If you have experienced any of these injuries, seek medical attention. Then, seek legal help from a civil rights lawyer to hold the responsible parties accountable.
