Sheilin Woods arrested during a promotion against the construction of the pipeline

The incident occurred in the Morton district (North Dakota). Actress and 26 more activists protested against the construction of the Dakota Access pipeline. The protesters did not suit the route of the process pipeline across the river, about the state of the water in which they were worried, and the fact that the oil pipeline should go through the burial places of the Indians. According to Sheilin Wood, together with other protesters, she went to the car to peacefully return to the camp, which they smashed on the banks of the Missouri River in May, when the law enforcement officers were surrounded by them and sat down all the protesters in a huge truck.

27 people were arrested for illegal entry into the territory of construction. True, the representative of Wood, for his part, said that the actress was already released from custody.

#Repost @seekthetruth with @repostapp Everyone please share!! Actress #ShaileneWoodley was arrested in North Dakota while protesting the #DakotaAccessPipeline that will desecrate sacred #NativeAmerican land and pollute water, the incident was captured live on camera. Woodley is seen narrating her own arrest in a video posted on her Facebook page, saying she was headed peacefully back to her vehicle when “they grabbed me by my jacket and said that I wasn’t allowed to continue … and they have giant guns and batons and zip ties and they are not letting me go.” An officer is heard on the video telling the actress that she is being arrested for "trespassing". As she was led away in handcuffs, Woodley says on the video she was among hundreds of protesters but was singled out “because I’m well known, because I have 40,000 people watching.” She is known for her #environmental activism, has previously joined members of North Dakota’s #StandingRockSiouxTribe to protest against the proposed construction of the $3.7 billion project. The 1,100-mile (1770.28-km) pipeline, being built by a group of companies led by Energy Transfer Partners LP, would be the first to bring Bakken shale from North Dakota directly to refineries on the U.S. Gulf Coast. The group behind the Dakota Access pipeline had planned to start operations in the fourth quarter of this year, but construction has been delayed by demonstrations. On Sunday, a federal court rejected a request by the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe to halt construction of the Dakota Access pipeline but said that ruling was “not the final word,” as a necessary easement still needed government approval. On Monday, the Department of Justice, U.S. Army and Department of the Interior said that the Army, in the interim, will not authorize construction of the pipeline on Army Corps land bordering or under Lake Oahe. The tribe said the pipeline would leave it vulnerable to contamination from oil spills and would damage historic and culturally significant sites. #NoDAPL #IndigenousPeoplesDay Source: globalnews.ca
