9 Greenpeace Protesters Charged With Felonies After Banner Drop

September 18, 2014 Staff, www.wlwt.com , ,
CINCINNATI —Nine Greenpeace protesters were arrested after a pair of multi-story banners was hung from the two Procter & Gamble towers in downtown Cincinnati on Tuesday. "It was pretty bizarre when that run came out that we had people hanging from the building. The first thought was its window washers. But then we heard about the banners that were coming down and everything else and certainly it was much more than that," Capt. Paul Broxterman said. He said the activists had broken window locks to get out, then braced the windows shut so police couldn't get to them.
