($) BREAKING: More than 60 training center activists named in RICO Indictment

From the Atlanta Journal Constitution Crime News:

March 6, 2023 Atlanta: Atlanta police and construction personnel were on the construction site of the police training center Monday morning, March 6, 2023 in Atlanta examining equipment set on fire and destroyed by violent protests Sunday. Dozens of protesters dressed in all black threw large rocks, bricks, Molotov cocktails and fireworks at officers at the site on Sunday. City and state leaders and police condemned the violence that broke out Sunday, leaving construction equipment destroyed and 35 people detained. Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp on Monday said those involved put “destruction and vandalism” over “legitimate protest.” “As I’ve said before, domestic terrorism will NOT be tolerated in this state,” Kemp said in a statement. “As we continue to respect peaceful protest, we will also continue to ensure safety in our communities. We will not rest until those who use violence and intimidation for an extremist end are brought to full justice.” Meanwhile, an activist group called “Stop Cop City” said it was officers who started the violence by raiding a nearby music festival, a news release from the group states. Some of the violence at the Atlanta Public Safety Training Center site, located near Bouldercrest Road and Key Road in DeKalb County, was captured on surveillance cameras and released by Atlanta police. Several pieces of construction equipment were set on fire, Atlanta police Chief Darin Schierbaum said during a news conference late Sunday. Other police agencies stepped in to assist the city’s officers.(John Spink / [email protected])
