Hello everyone, I just bought Civilization 6 for xbox one a few days ago. I was playing as teddy and while I was building rifleman about 5 of my units turned into rough riders with a red hat icon above them, then I could no longer control them and they proceeded to attack my older units "pikemen, worriors". Could anyone tell me what happened? I have played Civilization rev. And dont remember anything like that happening before.
 
Your city had negative loyalty (insufficient amenities, low population and poor proximity to your own higher population cities, among other factors vs close proximity to another civ or civs' high population cities.) Your city's overall loyalty decreased by some amount per turn until it fell to 0 and rebelled against you, turning into a free city and spawning barbarian-like units against you.

I am unsure of some of the exact specifics but it appears you may be recounting things incorrectly... I don't believe you lose any of your own units in a flip process but rather that the new Free City spawns its own units, and as they do not belong to America they cannot have been Rough Riders.
