Police invade radio Gap & IMC It

by Verve
Police entered the Radio Gap studio and the Italy IMC. Report from general Indy Media Site
Police entered the Radio Gap studio and the Italy IMC. Tear gas was fired around the IMC as the police broken into the center. Police batton charged inside the IMC. A reporter from IMC-UK, who is inside the center, is reporting that there are 10 injured people inside the IMC, three of whom was taken away by ambulance. Disks and other material are being removed, some computers may have been broken by the police who have been acting aggressively. A cell phone report indicates that people have been split into two groups inside the IMC by the police. We have conflicting reports as to what is actually transpiring. Those inside the center are requesting that people contact media and governments to dennounce the activities of the Italian police. Outside the media center, there have been reports that many people have been beaten. As of 0:48 GMT, police have left the building. We are having difficulty verifying exactly what is taking place right now because tense situation.

Verve Comment: Please try understand the violence the protesters are facing i Genoa and you may understand why someone might be driven to strike back, even when a gun is pointed at their head. Do not let Corporate media divide us.
