Zombie “Terrorists” in Minneapolis
From several locations (Indymedia, City politics list, mn anarchist mailing list):
On Saturday night, in downtown Minneapolis, a zombie themed
dance-party sporting homemade radios at the nicollet mall light rail
station was attacked by police. Six people that we know of have been
charged with “simlulation of a weapon of mass destruction,” including
one juvenile. Their bail is set at $30,000 each.Their will be a jail solidarity event on Monday, July 23rd at 9am at
the hennepin county jail at 400 s. 5th st. in downtown Minneapolis.
The people that we know are arrested are Christian Utne, Raphi
Rechitski, Jaime Lee Jones, Kate Kibby, and her brother “bean” (Kyle),
and Jake. They are all still being held as of Sunday evening.Please try to show up and make a sign or banner stating that dance
parties are not terrorism or something of the kind. This is an
explicitly non-violent event, avoiding confrontation with the police.
Please be prepared to respectfully support these people.As of now the police have refused to release any information. Anyone
willing to help should try and meet at the jail solidarity event on
Monday to begin organizing a formal defense and more solidarity for
these people. Until Monday July 23rd information can be sent to
daybreak@tao.ca and will be passed on.
