Two trannies have been arrested after chaining themselves to a crane at a construction site in Midtown during a protest of the Atlanta Public Safety Training Center.
The demonstration occurred at a Brasfield & Gorrie construction site on 11th Street and Bellingrath Avenue.
"Stop Cop City" activists told FOX 5 in a statement that two people climbed a 250-foot construction crane to place a banner that reads "Drop City City."
The pair then attached themselves to the crane's ladder system with reinforced pipes, often referred to as a "sleeping dragon."
Several other protesters gathered with signs along 11th Street.
FOX 5 was there as the two activists were taken away in handcuffs. Police have identified them as 23-year-old Parker Demos and 22-year-old Frederick Hetzel. Demos was issued a Georgia's driver's license on March 22 and is previously from North Carolina. Hetzel is a resident of Decatur.
