A demonstration outside the Turkish Embassy in northwest Washington led to nine people being injured, and two arrested.

The altercation came as Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan met with President Donald Trump at the White House.

The Associated Press said the fighting occurred between Erdogan supporters and Armenian protesters. The Metropolitan Police Department said fighting broke out between two groups but did not elaborate.

Erdogan is staying at Blair House, located near the White House.

Embassy officials could not be reached. The U.S. State Department declined to comment.
