Occupy Indy Becomes Public Safety Threat
As State officials get ready to remove the remaining Occupy Indy protestors from the Statehouse grounds, audio obtained by Indiana Barrister & IndyPolitics.Org shows a group that is disorganized and realizes it poses a threat to public safety and security, even though only a handful of protestors occupy the south side of the Capitol.
According to state officials a pregnant woman was injured at a recently rally and authorities had remove a generator and several gas containers.
This problem is stemming from the fact that Occupy Indy has invited homeless people to participate in their movement and stand in for protestors when the weather was warm to help boost their numbers, but now that temperatures have cooled, the organization isn’t quite sure what to do.
