BLM activists have appeared to force their way into Iowa's State Capitol building.
In videos posted to both Twitter and Facebook, one masked demonstrator is shouting in a government building while other protestors stage a "die-in."

While this is going on, one man yells "I can't breathe, can you breathe?" To which the crowd also responds "I can't breathe."
Another video shows police arresting the protestors. In the video, a BLM protestor screams "that's just a kid," as someone is arrested.

The police then removed the protestors, who claimed to have a permit for demonstrating, from the building. One protestor was arrested for allegedly assaulting a police officer.
