A massive Manhattan march against police brutality turned ugly as night fell Saturday, with protesters assaulting cops, bashing in a patrol car window and calling for the deaths of NYPD officers.
Roughly 30,000 people fuming over the Eric Garner case flooded Sixth Ave. in a mostly peaceful afternoon demonstration.
But tempers rose and violence flared after sunset.
A breakaway group of protesters clashed with cops on the Brooklyn Bridge at about 7:15 p.m., after some demonstrators hurled orange cones and other construction material onto the roadway.
Two NYPD lieutenants were assaulted when they tried to stop a man from throwing a garbage can onto officers below, police said. The demonstrators forced the officers to the ground, punched and kicked them, and tried to swipe their radios and tear away their jackets, police said.
The assailants fled after the beatdown.
Amid the fracas, the protester who was throwing the garbage can escaped. But he left behind a bag containing three hammers and a black mask.
