Overview

• Two protesters climbed a crane at an Atlanta construction site to protest the 'Cop City' public safety training center, leading to their arrest.
• The activists, protesting the facility's environmental impact and police militarization, also highlighted anti-trans violence and legislation.
• Emergency services had to intervene to safely remove the protesters, who used a 'sleeping dragon' device to chain themselves.
• The protest is part of a series of actions against the contractor Brasfield & Gorrie, demanding an end to their involvement in the construction.
