CHICAGO–(ENEWSPF)–June 5, 2015. After nearly 48 hours in police custody, the nine trauma center activists arrested at the University of Chicago on Wednesday have been released. The activists were arrested following a sit-in at the University of Chicago’s administration building, where they were demanding that the UofC open an adult level-one trauma center. All nine are being charged with three misdemeanor charges: trespassing, mob action and resisting arrest. Trauma Care Coalition activists will continue to contest the charges and continue to pressure the UChicago to drop the charges.
