Daryl Hannah arrested in a tree

Daryl Hannah has been arrested in a tree as she tried to save a green space in Los Angeles from developers.

Hannah was among 40 protesters arrested by police in an early morning raid on a community farm that is to be demolished to make way for a warehouse. Along with another climber, the actress raised her fist as she was pulled from the branches of a walnut tree onto the platform of a fire engine.

More than 120 police officers, some in riot gear, carried out the arrests, removing activists who had handcuffed themselves to benches, trees and a picnic table in the garden, which sits among industrial buildings in the South Central district of the city.
