PHOTOS MARCH 21 ACTION IN WESTWOOD PART 2by Heidi Werntz Sunday, Mar. 23, 2003 at 2:50 AMwerntzphoto@hotmail.com This is part two of the story. All Images Copyright 2003 Heidi Werntz. I just have to say, on a side note, that the woman who lead, inspired, and comforted us tonight was incredible. You know who you are. Thank you.
The same cop who got protestors on the corner earlier on in the evening aggressed on protestors as they stood on the corner. Not sure what happened there.

Somehow, a protestor managed to get on top of the building the protestors were stuck up against on the corner.

A police helicopter kept a close eye on the protestors, their light shining down on them and on the cops.

Chief Bratton showed up and decided on a plan.

They couldn't resist taking THEIR STREETS once again.

A line of police officers followed the demonstrators. Bicycle cops rode along side, and motorcycle cops blocked side streets.

All of the protestors were under the impression that when they arrived back at the Federal Building they would disperse and go home. Much to their dismay, the protestors were surrounded once again by more than a hundred police officers.

Yup, lots of cops. And all the protestors wanted to do was go home...and pee.

Finally, protestors were told to disperse...and went home after a relatively peaceful night of protest. They were all afraid there was going to be violence on the part of the cops, but thankfully, there wasn't.
