Protest Suit Share
Share
An anti-war activist who was mistakenly arrested during a rally for Barack Obama last month has filed a lawsuit against the city of St. Paul and five police officers. Mick Kelly was at the Xcel Energy Center to hand out leaflets that advertise an anti-war protest that will be held when the Republican Convention is in town. Assistant City Attorney Jerry Hendrickson says the city has acknowledged the arrest was a mistake and the police have tried to apologize to Kelly.
