Since the thawing of the beast from the east snow, South Yorkshire police who attend each tree felling in numbers of upwards of 35 have increasingly been becoming more aggressive in the arrest of tree protestors, which now includes for just blowing a small plastic children's trumpet, as happened to this lady on Rivelin Valley Road Wednesday.

And earlier in the day an elderly Tree Defender was also aggressively arrested which illustrates what is happening on Sheffield's streets on a daily basis. The gentleman concerned was arrested under suspicion of a minor obstruction (S303 Highways Act 1980) offence.
