Alleged undercover Oakland police officers posing as protesters were identified by actual protesters. One of the undercover cops drew a weapon. Both officers then began to arrest protesters. In the photo above, one of the undercover infiltrators aims his loaded gun directly at Reuters photographer Noah Berger. Freelance reporter Courtney Harrop has reported on a series of eyewitness posts from protesters and journalists who witnessed the undercover agents activity, which reportedly included encouraging protesters to loot and commit other crimes, before the officers were discovered.
