The moves came as protesters pushed back on federal law enforcement and National Guard troops fanning out in the heavily Democratic city following President Donald Trump’s executive order.

The 135 Louisiana National Guard troops sent to join President Donald Trump’s crackdown on crime and homelessness in Washington D.C. had arrived Wednesday to help local law enforcement — and they will stay there “as long as the President needs them,” Gov. Jeff Landry said Wednesday.

The military vehicle, which is designed to withstand explosive attacks, collided with a "civilian vehicle" just after 6 a.m. on Wednesday in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Washington, D.C.
