  Police move in on tree sitters 

     (Bloomington, Indiana-AP) -- Police in Indiana are uprooting
some tree-sitting activists.
     Police are forcibly removing the activists, who have been
demonstrating for more than three months to block a new housing
development in Bloomington.
     Authorities say they've arrested at least three people on
charges of trespassing and resisting arrest.
     They say about four protesters planted themselves in trees at
the site, and at least 30 others are on a road outside the area.
     Environmentalists have maintained a vigil since March 22nd, when
one activist began a sit-in.
