Michigan result: 'Ugly scenes' at count facility in Detroit

The BBC's Lebo Diseko reports from a count facility in Detroit where 'ugly scenes' erupted when Republican and Democrat supporters were denied access to the count room.

Around 30 people were blocked from entering the counting room by city state officials. They were mostly Republicans but some Democrats also said they were denied entry.

Detroit police were called to enforce the decision.

Election officials said they had to control the number of people in the room because of coronavirus.

Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden is projected to win the state of Michigan.

Donald Trump's campaign is mounting a legal challenge there. Trump won in Michigan back in 2016.
