We need someone to go to courtroom F today at 1:30 p.m. and report on a
hearing for two people who were arrested last night.
I just received a call from Kathryn Matzen, a friend at the School for
Designing a Society. She told me that two of our friends, Tim Gibbs and
Laura Anderson, were arrested "obstructing a police officer" at 12:59 a.m.
this morning. They saw a police officer investigating a car with two
african americans in it, just south of University on Goodwin. Tim and
Laura thought they should keep an eye on the police, so they went and stood
next to the police car and watched. Apparently, the officer(s) told them
to stand across the street, and when they refused, they were arrested.
They have a court hearing today at 1:30 in Courtroom F at the county
courthouse (Main and Elm in Urbana).
Please let the list know if you can cover this.
Thanks,
Peter
