In Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania dozens of anti-war demonstrators attempted to shut down a military recruiting center on Saturday. Two protesters were hospitalized after suffering injuries at the hands of the police. Officers shot one woman with a Taser stun gun as she was lying on the street. Pittsburgh Indymedia captured the scene on tape. Another woman — who was 68 years old — was bit in the thigh by a police dog. At least five protesters were arrested. The police defended the level of force used. A spokesperson said, “When you’re fighting with police officers, we’re allowed to use the force necessary to effect an arrest, up to and including Taser.”
