Justice for Charles Hill BART Action Shuts Three Stations in San Francisco: photos, 2 of 2

Mon, Jul 18, 2011 4:59PM

Protesters promised to disrupt the Bay Area Rapid Transit system's business as usual to send a clear message to BART that the their police department's growing death toll is simply unacceptable. "They succeeded," BART PR spokesman Linton Johnson was forced to concede on the day of action as three of the busiest downtown San Francisco stations were forced to close and trains were disrupted for over two hours. These photos are a continuation of the photo series begun at http://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2011/07/18/18685160.php.
