Update From Kanehsatake

Presently there are neither police officers nor a police force operating within the community of Kanehsatake. It was decided yesterday after a squad car was stolen by the illegally imposed police sanctioned by James Gabriel, Canada, and Quebec that the police station should be closed till after the upcoming June elections or till further notice.

Contrary to corporate media reports NO community members stole ammunition or police equipment. It was decided by the community of Kanehsatake to have all the ammunition and police equipment removed from the police station and stored in a secure location out of the hands of community members and out of the hands of James Gabriel's non-sanctioned police force. Aside from the risk of theft of the above mentioned items the community also stated that the removal of ammunition and equipment also eliminated an excuse for either Gabriel's police, the Surete du Quebec, or the RCMP to intervene in order to secure these items.

All is calm at this hour however, community members are assuming the duties of patrolling the territory of Kanehsatake and also keeping watch for outside police who would try to forcibly enter the community.
