Buffalo, N.Y., will replace its police Emergency Response Team with a new "Public Protection Unit" following the suspension and arrest of two ERT members seen on video shoving a 75-year-old protester who fell and cracked his head, Mayor Byron Brown said Wednesday. Buffalo police initially said in a statement that a person 'was injured when he tripped & fell.' The injured protester, Martin Gugino, remained hospitalized Wednesday. The Public Protection Unit that replaces it will work with any group that wants to peacefully protest, Brown said.
