During the week of 2/18, at a precinct in the heart of Brooklyn, tires were punctured on 10 NYPD vehicles and two NYPD vehicles were vandalized in honor Tortuguita. Below is a selection from the communique:
“With caution and courage, they left the scene quickly, leaving behind the sound of escaping air and blood red lettering on the side of two NYPD buses reading;
“For Tort”
10 NYPD vehicles were left with punctured tires.
As these vessels are primarily used to cage and transport prisoners, protestors, and those who live in friction with genocide and empire, it is clear that these vehicles needed to be taken out. But there are many more… Stay sharp, fellow beings of the forest! Our grief and rage are hard and heavy, but there are openings where we can hold it as a stone to sharpen the claws we have.
Viva viva Tortuguita!”
