memphis A young animal rights activist caused a stir at the NBA playoff game between the Memphis Grizzlies and Minnesota Timberwolves. The 19-year-old chained herself to a basket during the game. The game had to be stopped.
With a protest, an animal rights activist caused the game to be interrupted in the NBA play-off game between the Memphis Grizzlies and the Minnesota Timberwolves. The 19-year-old woman chained herself to a basketball hoop on Saturday (local time) – the game therefore had to be temporarily stopped in the second quarter. Security forces first removed the chain around her neck and led the woman out of the hall.
The woman was arrested on charges of disorderly conduct and trespassing. She belongs to a group of animal rights activists who are protesting conditions at production sites. Timberwolves co-owner Glen Taylor also owns livestock farms. With her t-shirt slogan, the woman criticized Taylor.
