Whether they are charged with a crime is up to the governor, ultimately.
But, the state police -- if they order a street closed -- are well within their rights to CLEAR the street. If the person won't budge, they can forcibly remove them. Which they did. That is being 'arrested.' There are no exceptions for reporters.
- monocasa 6y agoThe reporter was complying; he was asking which direction they should go when he was arrested.
- lurquer 6y agoHow much time should the police give him to decide whether to walk 10 feet to the left, or 10 feet to the right? Three minutes? Five minutes? An hour? The cameraman was literally STANDING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET while stating that they were there to report on the CLOSURE OF THE STREET.
