Greenpeace executive director Steven Tindale said traders tried to force several of the protesters out of the trading pit.
“We were nonviolent and peaceful and we made it clear that’s what we were there for, but there were quite a few blows raining down on our heads,” Tindale said.
“They pulled a metal bookcase down on our heads. They were trying to use that to push us back out so that was the moment we decided to retreat for everyone’s safety.”
One protester was injured. He was treated at the scene before being taken to hospital.

Love stuff like this. Almost as good as when the hippies invaded the oil exchange and got a right kicking off the oil traders

that didn’t actually happen
How do I know? No trader would win a fight against anyone, that’s why.
