But at least 100 activists remain in the streets, having occupied the area since police on June 8 moved street barricades and vacated their East Precinct station in a move city officials say aimed to reduce tension. “We are grateful that had given us these barricades to begin with,” David Lewis, a product manager at Lululemon who has been organizing protests in Seattle since late May, told Reuters. “More lives would have been lost a couple of days ago as that drive-by happened.”
The first lawsuit established a June 26 deadline to initiate a plan to remove the protest, which prompted Mayor Jenny Durkan to hold a closed-door meeting with protesters and hash out a proposal to begin removing barricades.
