    Sophia's surgery was delayed by EIGHT HOURS because they couldn't get her to a hospital quickly because the police forces have put trucks on the bridge which is the only fast way for people to get from the reservation and the protest area to Bismarck.

    Here's an interview with Sophia's Dad:

    The police are denying everything, of course, and are blaming the protesters for Sophia's injuries. The surgeons have saved portions of shrapnel from Sophia's arm for legal proceedings.

    A coworker was just telling me that the 16 year old was building a bomb and it went off. This is the kind of shitty misinformation that spreads up here and makes things worse for e everyone.

    Exactly. The girl that was hit is 21. And there were multiple witnesses. Why people are automatically siding with the cops just astounds me, but they'd rather have jobs than care about people and their water getting fucked up.

    They don't care that this pipeline was RE-ROUTED FROM BISMARCK because it was deemed to be an EPA hazard to the water supply. But, sure, it's perfectly okay to put it under the Native's only water supply without doing an environmental impact study. This is akin to Flint, with the addition of digging up ancient burial grounds.

    "We are aware of the information about the woman on social media who has claimed she sustained injuries to her arm due to law enforcement tactics. The injuries sustained are inconsistent with any resources utilized by law enforcement and are not a direct result of any tools or weapons used by law enforcement." - Lt. Tom Iverson, ND Highway Patrol. Below is a picture of a propane tank found on the bridge following an explosion early Monday morning. Officers witnessed protesters rolling the cylinder on the bridge, saw the explosion and then witnessed protesters running on the bridge to carry a woman from the scene.
    1. That propane tank looks awfully intact for an "explosive".

    2. Remnants of concussion grenades (including one that didn't detonate) were recovered from the scene.

    Sophia's father put out a statement being made aware of Morton County claiming there were no concussion grenades used. Her doctors recovered what they verified to be shrapnel in her arm, which they're now holding onto as evidence should they decide to proceed legal action against Morton County PD.
