Actress-comedian Amy Schumer and model Emiy Ratajkowski are among those who were detained at a protest against US Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh in Washington DC on Thursday.
In a video sent to the daughter of a fellow protester, Schumer says "I think we're going to get arrested". MSNBC later shared an image of Schumer being detained on Twitter.
Ratajkowski shared an image of herself at the protest on Instagram, saying she had been arrested protesting Kavanaugh's nomination.
"Today I was arrested protesting the Supreme Court nomination of Brett Kavanaugh, a man who has been accused by multiple women of sexual assault," she says. "Men who hurt women can no longer be placed in positions of power. Kavanaugh's confirmation as a Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States is a message to women in this country that they do not matter.
