Police Raid Houses Connected With Planned RNC Protests
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0lax5_UAywE

More at http://www.theuptake.org. Police are raiding five locations in Minneapolis this morning. This comes after the Ramsey County Sheriff's office raided a location in St. Paul late last night. The raids in Minneapolis this morning are reportedly also being done by the Ramsey County Sheriff's office. Please note Minneapolis is in Hennepin County. The UpTake has video of last night's raid and has people on the scene of this mornings raids. This is video of a house at 3500 Harriet from Ken Avidor.

1. RNC Eve: "Police Are Acting Like Nazis"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9Z1Xej5WDE

More at http://www.theuptake.org. Michelle Gross of Communities Against Police Brutality was the victim of a burglary...and she's hinting strongly that she thinks someone from the government did it.

She and her husband were detained by police in St. Paul on Fri. 8/29/08 while attending an organizing meeting of activists protesting the RNC in the Twin Cities. They were not arrested, and eventually released. However, they returned home to find their garage and car had been burglarized. Nothing was taken, but documents and belongings had been searched. Interviewed at a gathering in Powderhorn Park on 8/30/08.

More at http://www.theuptake.org. When The UpTake arrived at the home at 3240 17th Avve. South in Minneapolis, the police and city inspectors were boarding up the house. The city said they had to board up the house because the owner wasn’t available, but the owner was in jail.
