Federal Way police have arrested four protesters who chained themselves to a flowerpot in front of Weyerhaeuser Co. headquarters, as shareholders were streaming into an annual meeting.
The Rainforest Action Network says the one woman and three men went to the meeting this morning with the expectation they would be arrested. The group wants to draw attention to a situation in northern Ontario, Canada, where indigenous people are trying to stop the forest products company from logging in their territory.
One of the people arrested is from San Francisco, the others are from Washington.
Brant Olson of Rainforest Action Network says the group had about 20 protesters in front of the building, including five shareholders who went inside to the meeting.
