Police have backtracked on their claim that a climate protest on the Sydney Harbour Bridge last year blocked an ambulance with its sirens running from responding to an emergency, an assertion repeatedly referred to in the jail sentence of demonstrator Deanna “Violet” Coco.
On Tuesday Alan Glover and Karen Fitzgibbon, two of the four people co-accused of blocking the bridge during a climate protest last April, appeared before the Downing Centre local court for sentencing over the protest.
