At the end of a “Week of Action” that saw peaceful and violent protests over the construction of the Atlanta Public Safety Training Center, police and activists came face to face again.
As of Sunday afternoon, Atlanta police would only say that “units were out serving a warrant” on Saturday morning. Meanwhile, opponents of the training center said several people were detained in the latest incident near the site of the planned center.
Multiple people had been camping at the Lakewood Environmental Arts Foundation, a nonprofit organization in the Lakewood neighborhood near the South River Forest.
