Last weekend, a four month long attempt to preserve fifty acres of woods just west of Blomington Indiana was broken up by police. Police extracted three of four people camping in the treetops on Friday and broke up a road blockade Saturday. Late Saturday, the last tree sitter climbed down after being cut off from essential supplies including water. The land is scheduled to be cleared for a 200 unit apartment complex. |
