All 46 people who were arrested during a protest that shut down the entrance to the Seattle–Tacoma International Airport on Monday were released from custody after posting bail.
But prosecutors moved quickly Tuesday and filed charges for failure to disperse and disorderly conduct against all 46 individuals, according to officials with the city of SeaTac.
Port of Seattle police said 30 of the protesters were booked in the SCORE jail in Des Moines, and 16 were booked into the King County jail. According to jail officials, the Northwest Community Bail Fund posted bail for at least a dozen of the protesters.
The protesters used vehicles to block the entrance drive to SEA starting around 3 p.m. Monday. The protest lasted for approximately two hours as police towed away the vehicles and detained several protesters who had used a “sleeping dragon” to chain their arms together.
