Apparently because he was "in the wrong area." Check the article links below. Thoughts, anyone?

A lot of emotions at something like that.  Police are dealing with a mob, so for a photographer this is most likely a combination of wrong place, wrong time and not to mention, he was most likely was preaching his rights to be there, so the police arrested him.

Tough call, but he has to cooperate with the authorities.

Only in that he cannot interfere with them while they are doing there duty. I would like to know where they think the press should cover this from. Most likely away from the protest. In the USA you do not always have to cooperate with the authorities.
