Outside we can hear sirens for the past few minutes.
This is yet another example of the police increasing the pressure on people here in genoa before the big demonstrations begin.

description of police at stadium
18.07.2001 09:24
This morning at around 0615hrs, 200-300 police in full riot clothing arrived at Carlini Stadium, a large accommodation space.
They said they were there to search the Stadium (the second time this has happened) where people from the white overalls and other civil disobedience groups are staying. There was no sense of panic inside the stadium and people were calm.
At the entrance the police were told they could not come in, and that they should wait for the GSF legal team to arrive.
When the lawyers, people from GSF and independent media activists arrived the lawyers told the police that only
4 of them could enter the stadium to search, and that they would be followed by people from the stadium, the lawyers
and independent media, and that they would then leave. No corporate press were allowed inside.
The four police were then taken on a tour of the stadium and escorted out of the gates to the cheers of the people inside. Soon after the hundreds of riot police departed. One activist said "This is another example of police harassment, they are trying to make the situation more tense with their actions like this".
