Trans March Turns Violent in San Francisco | Oakland News

San Francisco’s Trans March turned chaotic downtown as arrests erupted amid vandalism and alleged police brutality, sparking outrage from organizers who say trans folks were traumatized and pepper-sprayed during what was meant to be a day of joy. Witnesses report spray-painted cameras and assaults, while police say they were surrounded by marchers trying to stop arrests — leading to additional charges. Trans advocates are demanding dropped charges, community safety investments, and civilian traffic control instead of policing. The mayor’s office says talks are underway with trans leaders, while police insist they uphold First Amendment rights without tolerating criminal acts.
