Woman protester climbs Statue of Liberty

in #mgsc7 years ago

Womens protesting over US immigration policy climed on the statue of liberty and forced the monument's evacuation on the Fourth of July hours after several other demonstrators had hung a banner on the statue's pedestal .
About 100 feet (30 meters) above ground, the climber engaged in a roughly four-hour standoff with police before two New York Police Department officers climbed up to the base and went over to her. With the dramatic scene unfolding on live television, she and the officers edged carefully around the rim of the statue's robes toward a ladder, and she climbed down about 25 feet (8 meters) to the monument's observation point and was taken into custody.
