Police say 20-year-old Karon Hylton had been operating an electric moped without a helmet on the sidewalk and officers attempted to make a traffic stop.
He collided with a vehicle as he exited an alley and cops tried to perform CPR on him, according to a statement. He was pronounced dead at a hospital on Monday, three days after the incident.
Demonstrators gathered at the Fourth District Police Station on Wednesday night to protest Hylton's death.
That protest reportedly grew violent, according to D.C. police, who tell FOX 5 that rocks, bricks, and other items were used to smash the doors and windows of the police station.
FOX 5's Evan Lambert, however, reported the demonstrations were largely peaceful throughout the night before they were dispersed.
