Latest on the La Habra 9/11 memorial
Via CroooowBlog comes this article:
Police early Wednesday arrested a 19-year-old woman who witnesses said showed up at the memorial late Tuesday, claimed responsibility for burning some of the flags and pushed Chandler while saying the memorial endorsed the looming war in Iraq.
Jennifer Quintana, whom police identified only as an Orange County resident, was booked on suspicion of misdemeanor assault and released.
Quintana, who identified herself as a Fullerton College student, argued over the memorial with a crowd of about 25 people when she showed up at the site.
"It's an American flag, obviously it has everything to do with the war," she told the crowd. "There should be no war, just peace and togetherness."
Witnesses said Quintana grabbed Chandler as they argued.
"I told her to get her ignorant hands off me and she started to poke at me, so we called the police," Chandler said.
Police took Quintana in for questioning, and booked her into jail around midnight, police said. She was cited and released around 6 a.m. police said. They are still investigating whether Quintana was responsible for any of last weekend's vandalism.
