More than 50 people attended a Columbus protest Sunday against sending Ohio National Guard troops to the nation's capital.

Fear in the streets. Buildings burning. Law enforcement struggling to tamp down violence and bring chaos under control.

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine said Saturday that 150 members of the Ohio National Guard will be dispatched to Washington, D.C., to help support federal law enforcement as President Donald Trump pushes forward with his takeover of policing in the nation’s capital.

After President Donald Trump's announcement that his administration would take over Washington’s police department for at least a month, hundreds of members of the National Guard began to arrive

In New Mexico’s most populous city, National Guard troops are listening to the police dispatch calls, monitoring traffic cameras and helping to secure crime scene perimeters, tasks not usually part of the job.

Morrisey said the deployment includes hundreds of “skilled personnel” at the request of the Trump administration.

It was the first such action by the Guard since its deployment in Washington.
