May 2012

The Cruz home was raided today, May 25, at 4 am. 5 occupiers were arrested for respectfully refusing to leave. There is a press conference today, Friday, at noon in front of City Hall, 350 So. 5th St..
We’ll march to sheriff Stanek’s office on the second floor of City Hall. We will urge him to leave the occupiers alone as bank negotiations proceed.

PNC Bank had begun negotiating after an unsuccessful raid on the Cruz home on Wed. when sheriffs were unable to remove occupiers who had locked themselves to heavy cement. They have occupied the home for 25 days, and have now replaced doors and re-occupied it.
