Amateur footage captured the moment a LGBT festival attendee was sent cartwheeling to the ground by a police water cannon in Istanbul. Turkish riot police also clashed with many other festival goers at Istanbul's LGBT Pride parade. Police used tear gas and rubber bullets as well as water cannon in an attempt to halt the march which had been banned by the city's authorities. Some in the crowd responded by throwing objects at the riot police.
