and put in cells six slaying there for approximately four hours At approximately fi one Ontario Provincial Pol Ice officer a corporal assisted the truck back across the pick line with no trouble at

why one Police officer was needed to bring the truck back the picket line There was not one Georgetown officer present at this time but there were een or eight at the pol ice station I believe with
