Hawaii County police confirmed that officers made at least 15 arrests Thursday morning at the protest against the construction of the $1.4 billion Thirty Meter Telescope on Mauna Kea.
Police spokeswoman Chris Loos confirmed the arrests, but couldn't say how many were detained.

Several arrests were made Thursday morning as police began enforcing an open through-way on Mauna Kea Access Road. The road has been blocked by a group of Mauna Kea “protectors” – to Thirty Meter telescope construction crews only – for about a week. Under pressure to enforce the law on the road, which is under Hawaii County jurisdiction, police began warning that arrests would be made if the group of protectors did not step aside to let TMT drive up to the summit.

Some of these videos coming out are difficult for me to watch. Heavy heart for all involved in today's developments. SMH in handcuffing Aunty Moanikeala behind her back at 70 years old (in front would be more comfortable).
Progress does have indescribable /incalculable cost. It is not all about money.
