According to Sgt.
Anna Rose of the U.S. Park Police, shortly after 5 p.m., officers detained the three teens at 12th Street and Jefferson Drive, Northwest, for illegally vending.
The teens, two of whom are 17 and the other 16, told officers they did not have a vendor’s permit, which is required to sell items on the National Mall, Rose said.
“Officers placed them in handcuffs for the safety of the officers and of the individuals,” Rose said on Friday.
Democratic D.C. Council member Charles Allen, who chairs the public safety committee, wrote a letter to Park Police Chief Robert MacLean on Friday, asking him to explain the agency’s actions.
"I doubt we would have seen little girls in pigtails handcuffed on the ground."
“I would appreciate your response in reviewing yesterday’s events.
The witness who took photos of the teens in handcuffs had a similar reaction to Allen.
"There’s obviously a racial disparity in how they are treating these young men and other vendors that we see on the mall," said Tim Krepp.

Teens handcuffed for selling water on National Mall.
The arrests were made on Thursday.
U.S. Park Police say two of them were 16 and one was 17.
The agency says in a statement that the teens were warned about vending without a permit and released without charges.
Democratic D.C. Council member Charles Allen wrote a letter to Park Police Chief Robert MacLean on Friday asking him to explain the agency’s actions.
In the letter, Allen notes the lack of charges and says he doesn’t think the officers’ actions were justified.
He compares it to arresting kids for operating a lemonade stand.
I sent the following letter to Park Police Chief MacLean regarding yesterday’s handcuffing of kids selling water on the Mall.

D.C. Council member condemns Park Police for detaining youths selling water on Mall.
The plainclothes officers were part of a task force seeking out illegal vending.
In his letter to Park Police Chief Robert D. MacLean, Allen said that had the same officers encountered children with a lemonade stand and a hand-painted sign, “I doubt we would have seen little girls in pigtails handcuffed on the ground.” Allen asked MacLean if he should warn parents across the District about not stepping on Park property, which includes dozens of small “pocket parks,” lest they “are likely to be handcuffed and searched.” One series of photos that were widely circulated on Twitter were taken by Tim Krepp, a tour guide for 11 years.
“I’m pretty frankly disgusted by it,” Krepp said.
And I don’t believe that the image of young African American men handcuffed on the ground for selling bottled water is a reflection of my city.” Rose did not address Allen’s letter and did not respond to a request to interview MacLean.
She sent a prepared statement that said four individuals were initially detained “for illegally vending on the Mall.” She said one adult was released when it became apparent he was not involved.
The others were held for investigation.
Rose said each told the officers they did not have the required permit.
She said one of the youths is 16 and two are 17 and were released to their parents or guardians.

Community helps 11-year-old Gretna boy collect, deliver 7,500 bottles of water for homeless.
(KMTV) – Caleb Sherman, 11, of Gretna, just wanted to collect some bottles of water to give to the homeless.
So between the camps and baseball games this summer, this soon-to-be sixth-grader set out to collect bottled water all though the month of June for the Open Door Mission — for a second time.
Last year, he collected about 800 bottles of water.
To boost his donations this time around, Caleb reached out to his community for help.
"He’s typically reserved, shy.
So far this June, Caleb has collected a lot more bottles of water than he did last year: 7,500 bottles were sitting in the family’s garage Friday as his mom tried to figure out how to get them all over to the mission.
"We’re still working on that," Tammy said.
Mary Mueller, an Omaha realtor, donated use of a truck to help Caleb get his water to the mission.
"It was so inspiring, what you guys are doing," Mueller said to the family.

Conway Rec bracing for another summer of bottled water.
CONWAY — The summer program started Wednesday at the Conway Recreation Department and for the second year in a row, kids are being told not to drink the water in the Center Conway building.
Last year, 246 children from Albany and Conway participated in the six-week program.
Eastman had 220 pre-register this spring.
Campers are encouraged to bring their own water bottles.
"Please be advised all recreation participants and staff should not drink the water that comes from any of our faucets within the Conway Recreation Department Building," the signs state.
"Clean water will be supplied in our water jug for all programs outside on the bleachers and for all teen center participants."
Town Manager Earl Sires said the building, which once served as the Pine Tree School, needs work.
"The gymnasium is not insulated (using 400-500 gallons of heating fuel every two weeks).
"It’s a combination where we’re outgrowing it, and the facility itself we buttoned it down for 15 years, but now we’ve got to the 15 years," Sires continued.

‘Toilet to tap’ bottled water offered in a taste test.
One California company wants you to drink wastewater.
Yes, you read that right.
It’s been affectionately nicknamed "toilet to tap" water.
RELATED: Texas’ water future: More toilet-to-tap, aquifer storage Company officials set up a stand to give away free bottled water to encourage people to try it.
Some wouldn’t give it a shot, while others had no problem gulping it down.
California Recycled Wastewater Filtration went through the legislative process to be able to bottle the recycled water but they don’t actually have plans to do so.
Instead, the taste test was to try to get people comfortable with the idea of recycled wastewater so it could eventually be pumped directly into the water system.
Would you be comfortable with the recycled wastewater?
