(UTV | COLOMBO) – Seattle’s mayor has said the city plans to take back a district that is being occupied by armed protesters, after three people were shot at the weekend.
Mayor Jenny Durkan said the violence had become “increasingly difficult” for businesses and residents.
She said the city would work with the demonstrators to end the so-called Capitol Hill Occupied Protest zone.
The city centre zone was taken over by protesters on 8 June after police withdrew following violent clashes.
