Police and National Guard troops arrested more than 140 protesters near a construction site Thursday. The Standing Rock Sioux have sued to stop the pipeline from crossing under the Missouri River next to their reservation, claiming the project would destroy sacred sites and threaten the water supply. What started months ago as a dispute between a tribe and the federal government has escalated into clashes between protesters and police. Hundreds of law enforcement in riot gear formed a line Thursday across the prairie and moved in on an encampment of tents and teepees. The protest camp was set up over the weekend along the pipeline route on land owned by the Dakota Access pipeline company. Officers were backed up by dozens of police cars, armored vehicles and aircraft. Surveillance helicopters circled above a makeshift roadblock of beat-up cars, tires and wooden pallets. Protesters lit it on fire, trying to keep police out. But police pushed protesters back, trying to get them to move further down the highway.”* Read more here: http://www.npr.org/2016/10/28/4997563...
