Journalist Arrested While Documenting Legally Contested #Enbridge #Line5 Construction
by #UnicornRiot, Posted on September 17, 2026
#AshlandCounty, #Wisconsin – "Police arrested video journalist and Unicorn Riot contributor #RiverAkemann while he was documenting Enbridge Line 5 construction on August 24. He was monitoring fish in a creek where Enbridge lacks necessary authorization to install its #pipeline. He received four misdemeanor charges and was released later that day. The charges include #DisorderlyConduct, #trespassing, unlawful assembly, and resisting arrest.
"Canadian oil giant Enbridge has a secretive deal with Ashland County to reimburse the sheriff’s department to act as private security. Enbridge is paying police using the #WisconsinCountiesAssociation , a lobbying group, as the pass through. The Association is not subject to state open records laws. The public won’t know how much Enbridge is paying law enforcement or how the money is being spent.
"Multiple groups are suing Canadian oil giant Enbridge for proceeding with Line 5 construction without required property interests at 49 water crossings. Plaintiffs include the #BadRiverBand of #LakeSuperiorChippewa and multiple #environmental organizations."
