The RCMP has arrested 127 people since enforcement began at the Fairy Creek watershed area, with 11 new arrests made yesterday.
According to a statement from the RCMP, 10 people were arrested for breaching the injunction and one person was arrested for obstruction.
A correction was also made to the number of arrests from Wednesday night. Police originally stated that 55 people were taken into custody, but there were actually 58 arrested — 48 for breaching the injunction and 10 for obstruction.
Police also addressed a claim being made online “that police are operating and making arrests outside the injunction area.”
A map of the injunction boundary has been provided, and the RCMP says all arrests have been made within the proper area.
