Two people were arrested during demonstrations outside a Northwest D.C. police station Saturday night.
Police said two demonstrators crossed a police line posted below the steps toward the 4th District station on Georgia Avenue after 9 p.m. They were quickly arrested but released after 10:30 p.m.
According to police, 24-year-old Emily Kipp, of Arlington, and 52-year-old Karen Hylton-Brown, of D.C., were arrested for crossing a police line.
Videos posted on social media show Hylton-Brown, the mother of a man killed while riding an electric scooter through a residential area in October, being detained by D.C. police.

This is crazy. MPD snatches and arrests mother of who is grieving police killing of her son and has not gotten any answers.
This comes week after MPD let Proud Boys riot, run wild, and assault people in DC Streets.

Around 70 people participated in the demonstration outside the police station from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m., protesting the death of 20-year-old Karon Hylton-Brown.
No other arrests were made and no injuries were reported.
Hylton-Brown was killed after a motorist struck him as he drove a moped as police pursued him because he was not wearing a helmet.
Video footage shows that Hylton-Brown did not crash on a police cruiser.
Police are investigating if officers breached a 鈥渘o pursuit鈥� policy for traffic violations and bearing responsibility for his death.
The incident led to multiple demonstrations since Hylton-Brown鈥檚 death in Brightwood Park, with protesters asking for changes to the police force.
Charles Brown, Hylton-Brown鈥檚 father, was one of nine people arrested during an Oct. 31 protest.
Police Chief Peter 太子探花ham said on Oct. 30 that the case will be handed over to the U.S. Attorney鈥檚 office for review.
