Protesters Arrested at Downtown Baltimore Hotel


At approximately 1:45 p.m., members of the Baltimore police department responded to the lobby of the Hyatt Regency hotel located at 300 Light Street for a report of several individuals in the lobby refusing to leave and chaining themselves to railing.

There is a State FOP conference taking place at the Hyatt on Light Street this week. Today, protestors entered the building and chained themselves to railing and blocking the escalator. Several other protestors remained outside.

After being asked to leave the private property by hotel security and refusing to do so, several members of the protest group were arrested. Officers and officials from the fire department were able to cut the chains and take the remaining people into custody.

Voluntarily in chains! How about some community service on a road gang?

T-shirts printed for the event. And one from that prairie garden spot, home of Ayres, Alinsky, Obama and Clinton (female version).

Ain't called Charm City for nothing.

Why aren't their actual names released, instead of "adult male" or "adult female"? Must have been ordered by the DOJ.
