NEW YORK (AP) - Striking Verizon landline workers have harassed and even fired a BB gun at those still on the job, blocked trucks from getting to Verizon facilities and kept work from being completed, the telecommunications company said Wednesday as it pursued legal action in five states to limit picketing and stop what it claims is demonstrating gone too far.
The company filed papers Wednesday in New York and got a court order Monday in Pennsylvania. The company got a similar order Wednesday in Delaware and has legal action going in New Jersey and Massachusetts, spokesman Richard Young said.
A Communications Workers of America spokeswoman didn't immediately return a phone call Wednesday.
The union has said it doesn't condone any illegal activity.
