Arrests at War Resisters March 8/31/04

Five reporters from the UCIMC (Urbana-Champaign Independent Media
Center) were arrested yesterday during the War Resisters March and are being detained at Pier 57. It is estimated that between 100-200 people were arrested at this march while on the sidewalk. Right now they've been detained over 19 hours, with no contact with their
laywer, and without being charged with any crime. One reporter was able to a report out (on a smuggled cell phone) this morning on the conditions at Pier 57. You can listen to it, as well as the other reports of their arrest, at: www.ucimc.org
