Zachary Runningwolf arrested... again!
Activist Zachary Runningwolf was arrested on Telegraph Avenue in Berkeley, early Thursday evening, 6/25/09, for the third time on the same charge -- a "vandalism" complaint brought against him by staff at People's Park accusing him of painting some text on the "Free Speech" stage.
At about 8:30 pm, Thursday, June 25, 2009, activist Zachary Runningwolf was arrested by 3 University of California bicycle police officers as he was leaving the Mediterraneum Caffe on Telegraph Avenue in Berkeley, CA. Runningwolf has previously been arrested twice before on apparently the same charge. He attempted to explain to the officers that he'd been before a judge just three days ago, resolving the matter, but the officers were not deterred.
Reportedly, the charge was a result of a UC Park staff person having called police, making a citizen's arrest complaint against Runningwolf recently, accusing him of painting a slogan on one edge of the park's open stage. Ironically, this was originally and traditionally has been known as the "Free Speech" stage.
