Infant among 2 children hospitalized after fed agents deployed tear gas: Minneapolis officials
Two children, including one who was 6-months-old, were hospitalized last night after federal agents deployed tear gas during Wednesday night's protests, according to the Minneapolis Office of Community Safety.
The infant was inside a vehicle that was hit by tear gas and began to experience "breathing difficulties," according to the agency.
"The family moved the infant into a nearby home. Reports also stated that the baby had stopped breathing," the agency said in a statement.

The infant and another child, whose age was not released, were transported to a hospital for further evaluation. Details about their conditions weren't immediately available.
