Antigua St. John’s - The Lone Wolf protesters had yet another run-in with law enforcement officials on Tuesday as they gathered outside the Chinese Embassy reiterating demands for answers on the controversial Wadadli Power Plant and the resignation of Chinese Ambassador to Antigua Liu Hanming.
The picket action began around 9:30 am and lasted until around noon, but was met with confrontation towards the end.
Reports are that lawmen arrived on the location around 10:40 am and demanded a stoppage to the activity and the clearance of the roadway directly in front of the Chinese Embassy. This, of course, was ignored by the picketers who claimed to be within their rights to perform the act.
Spokesperson for the group Vere Bird III recounted that the police seemed to have gotten desperate when they approached him, and proceeded to insinuate threats of an assault charge.
Bird III was at the time holding a mop stick for a flagpole behind his back.
“The Police asked me if I am assaulting him. How am I going to answer that question?” Bird said.
He added that after some back and forth chatter he did inform the lawman that if he was looking to make an arrest on a “trumped up charge” he could go right ahead.
