New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio’s daughter was arrested at a Manhattan protest on Saturday night, law enforcement sources told The Post on Sunday.
Chiara de Blasio, 25, was taken into custody around 10:30 p.m. after cops declared an unlawful assembly at 12th Street and Broadway in Lower Manhattan, the sources said.

She had allegedly been blocking traffic on Broadway and was arrested after refusing to move, the source said.
“That was a real hotspot, police cars were getting burned there, people were throwing and yelling, fighting with cops. There were thousands of people in that area at that time,” the source said.
Chiara gave a residence on East End Avenue as her address — otherwise known as Gracie Mansion, the mayor’s Upper East Side home. But she didn’t tell cops she was the mayor’s daughter.
The arrest came about an hour before Hizzoner told protesters it was time to “go home.”
“We appreciate and respect all peaceful protests, but now it is time for people to go home,” de Blasio said at a press conference at 11:30 p.m. at the NYC Emergency Management headquarters in Downtown Brooklyn.
“If you went out peacefully to make a point about the need for change, you have been heard and change is coming in the city. I have no doubt about that. It’s time to go home so we can all move forward.”
On Sunday, the mayor declared that anarchist agitators with an “explicit agenda of violence” have co-opted police-brutality protests for destruction.
It is a small number of people. It is well organized, even though many of the people are associated with the anarchist movement,” de Blasio said in a City Hall press briefing of the outside opportunists he blamed for the now-nationwide demonstrations devolving into chaos.
“Some come from outside of the cities. Some are from inside the city. Some are from the neighborhoods where the protests take place. Some are not,” he continued, without detailing where the interlopers were from.
His daughter — who graduated from Santa Clara University in 2016 with plans to pursue a career in social work — was given a desk appearance ticket.
City Hall didn’t immediately comment on her arrest.

Cuuuuuuute ????
Look daddy . I hate the NYPD just like you!
So we aren’t really for Liberty on this page, just a bunch of boot lickers? All of you were crying that it’s tyranny for our governor to tell us to put on a mask, or for businesses to stay closed, for the greater health of our state, but you will applaud when the police arrest someone for exercising their right to protest. What a bunch of hypocrites
Frank Backle brace yourself. Here come the “triggered” and trump memes because they don’t know how to have a conversation with actual words.
This rioting is not protesting, That is being done during the day. How come we never see this happening when Cops are being murdered every day! ‘She had allegedly been blocking traffic on Broadway and was arrested after refusing to move, the source said.
“That was a real hotspot, police cars were getting burned there, people were throwing and yelling, fighting with cops. There were thousands of people in that area at that time,” the source said.
Karen Dewar You’re actually a Karen ????
Shes a POS just like her so called father
A Protest doesn’t do anything to better any situation, history proves that violence almost always stems from a protest and if protesters turn to violent riots or looting then their no longer a protester.
A rioter or looter is no better than a excessively aggressive cop who shouldn’t be attacking with clubs or guns but blocking and subduing properly, if that protester, rioter, looter isn’t armed, to cause permanent damage, then a cop shouldn’t instigate an attack.
Nonviolence is a powerful and just weapon, which cuts without wounding. and ennobles the man who wields it. It is a sword that heals…
Rob King what exactly do you suggest they do? I agree violence and looting doesn’t help.. but what exactly will get them noticed? Their voices heard? Bc they’ve tried just about everything ..how far do people get pushed before they hit breaking point? We are seeing it now
Protests can help change, just ask MLK Jr, the problem is these aren’t protests, why are they doing it overnight inn the cities, so they can loot and burn under the cover of darkness
Rich Gregg your comment is meant to be sarcastic right? You do know that Martin Luther King Jr and everyone who marched with him were beat down after there peaceful march right? If he was so loved why was he so hated and ultimately murdered for his peaceful protests?
Repulsive comments here . Ashamed of humanity reading them.
Sheli Helm Disher You’re not repulsed by the actions of the rioters but you’re repulsed when people speak the truth. Typical.
Lucille Manzella I thought people like how you just sounded didnt exist. But sadly they so. Who could NOT be reoulsed by rioters ? Isn’t everyone ? And typical of who? What? And the truth ?? Most comments here are not truth. They are racist disgusting repulsive comments that show me why some black people are so furious.
Sheli Helm Disher His daughter was arrested for breaking the LAW. Yes, that’s the truth. That’s not racist.
Lucille Manzella she was in an area where violence was. Not one report said she was being violent. Not one picture.
Sheli Helm Disher get your facts straight lady Im done talking to you.
Lucille Manzella lol. As soon as I clarified what the facts reported were ur done? Should I use ur word.. typical! So sad…
Sheli Helm Disher Listen, what part of ‘UNLAWFUl ASSEMBLY’ do you not understand?That’s why I can’t deal with you.
Lucille Manzella ????????
Lucille Manzella I’m more repulsed about a man being suffocated by police than any bad apples destroying property and looting. That’s just a distraction from the real issue. Perhaps White people should just STFU and maybe listen for once.
Sheli Helm Disher she was arrested for blocking roadway and throwing objects at officers
Colie Hayes Pypcznski Thank you! Some people are completely ignorant.
Debbie Garvin people don’t take time to look into things and live by FB comments and memes as truth . No one can think for themselves and they follow the mainstream narrative.
Stunning.
And there will be no charges
Huh, I thought Zika Virus was a relatively new thing, but looking at that pic…
An apple never falls far from the tree.
Freakish beast
That is why wants the police to be “soft” on rioters.
And they should have thrown her black ass in a cell with everyone else’s only then would this girl know what it’s like on the poor side
I swear nj filled with the most hateful people. nothing but negativity in the comment sections. nothing ever of value or importance. just dumb shit talking lol
Tim Odom not sure how hateful or negative McCutcheon’s comment was but I can’t remem a mayor or other states official wanting police to be “soft” on rioters. Personally I find it rather interesting and not so surprising!! If that’s hateful, negative or whatever you might choose this or another time get over it and go back to school for basic English and vocabulary!
Marti Bence no, I was talking about the comment sections on most of the articles shared to ocean county scanner news. thats all! not diving deeper into the riots and looters! just sad how our community on here is just a dogpile of toxic jokes and nothing seems, from what ive seen, to be productive.
thanks for proving my point though.
He taught her sense of values to her and now he is supporting her actions. Nothing more needs to be said, his actions speak much louder than his words.
Saw a little video but where she’s with the family and the look she gives her father is I hate you for making me do this! , It was obvious sure didn’t want to be there
