WASHINGTON — Residents in one Washington, D.C., neighborhood lined up Wednesday to protest the increased police presence after the White House said the number of National Guard troops in the nation’s capital would ramp up and federal officers would be on the streets around the clock.

The White House on Monday revealed photos of National Guard troops in Washington, DC, as President Donald Trump moved to take direct federal control of the city’s police and deploy 800 troops in a sweeping crime crackdown.

A senior Army official said that some troops were deploying with D.C. police Tuesday night and that their mobilization marked the beginning of the deployment of 800 National Guard members.
