Pro-Palestine protestors taken into custody
During the event two protestors allegedly chained themselves to a fence holding signs that read: “Pritzker: We Charge Genocide,” and “Bombs for Gaza, Prisons for Illinois”.
These signs referred to the Governor of Illinois J.B. Pritzker’s $900 million plan to tear down and rebuild two state prisons, and Israel’s ongoing bombardment of Gaza.
According to the Chicago police, the protestors were arrested 40 minutes after they entered the track on grounds of criminal trespass.
The group claiming responsibility for the demonstration revealed that the protestors were released early Monday morning, after sending a statement to media outlets on Sunday.
“Pritzker’s policies in Illinois mirror the same policies of mass death and imprisonment of presidents Biden and Trump,” the statement read.
“Chicagoans will not allow our city to operate as normal while you invest in our people’s mass incarceration and genocide. Pritzker and Johnson are not fit to host any major events in Chicago, including the Democratic National Convention, because the people will not allow them to.”
