  • Six Antifa activists who were arrested and charged with domestic terrorism following a clash with law enforcement at the proposed site of Atlanta’s new public safety academy have been granted bond. 
  • The activists set up treehouses in the forest since June to block the construction of the facility and had begun attacking police and other emergency services workers at the scene with rocks, bottles and a gas bomb. 
  • Convictions of domestic terrorism carry sentences of anywhere between five and 35 years in prison.
